Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) Therapists in Maine

Hello, thank you for taking time to be here. Therapy is an investment in time, personal commitment, and money. My practice has shifted since COVID to seeing less people, for 60 to 90 minutes, and not accepting insurance. Hakomi, Mindfulness, Somatic Psychology, CBT and other modalities are part of the support provided as people move through grief (death, terminal illness, divorce...); healing past trauma, re-surfacing or ready to liberate from, the lies they embed in our narratives; and reclaiming the day to day wakefulness of being. Anxiety, depression, problems at the macro level, benefit from mindfulness and action, and therapy.

Hello and Welcome! Psychotherapy is a collaborative, goal-oriented process of talking and experiencing emotions in a welcoming and affirming space. Thoughtfully chosen to meet your individual needs, I integrate an insight-oriented approach with evidence-based skills and behavior-focused therapies (e.g. CBT or DBT). Our sessions will address your current concerns, symptoms, and personal goals as well as explore vulnerabilities from your past to develop a deeper self-awareness. Mindfulness and/or EMDR may be suggested to clients who might benefit from an emotion-focused, body-based treatment.

Being a human in the 21st century, can often feel stressful and overwhelming. Often due to stress and overwhelm we can feel stuck, anxious and burnt out. I work with adults to identify the areas in their lives that they feel aren't working. Through looking at those areas in a non-judgmental, self-compassionate framework we can identify ways to support yourself on deeper level to create a life that feels authentic, nourishing and supportive to you.

My interests lie in the area of anxiety, depression, and trauma. I work with children, adolescents, and adults. I also have experience treating anger and problematic behavioral challenges. I specialize in the use of cognitive behavioral interventions and will use alternative interventions when appropriate. I offer appointment times throughout the day including early morning and early evening times. I look forward to hearing from you and how I may be of help to you. If you contact me and I do not respond it is only because my schedule is completely full, and I have no available appointment times to offer. Respectfully, Tom

As a therapist with over 20 years of experience, my goal is to help you live a more fulfilling life. Together, we will examine what is not working, challenge thoughts and beliefs that are unproductive and create a plan for change. As we work together, you will find new ways of coping and begin challenging thoughts, behaviors and feelings that no longer serve you.

The reasons behind people's decision to seek out therapy are multifaceted, but underlying most of these reasons is a desire for change. While achieving change can be extremely gratifying, the process can often be uncomfortable and even painful as people take an honest look at issues and concerns in a supportive and safe environment. I think of the therapeutic process as a collaboration, with two people working together to achieve the goals that bring a person to therapy in the first place, and resolving issues they may not have anticipated. I believe in utilizing a person's strengths and personal values to create change.
