Therapists in Maine
My name is Esraa, and I am a Forensic mental health clinician. I believe that who we are today is strongly influenced by how the world once treated us. I emphasize understanding how past childhood experiences have the ability to impact present functioning. Before finding solutions, I first believe one must come to understand where issues originally stemmed from. This increases interpersonal awareness and sets the stage for working on more concrete and maladaptive thoughts and behaviors.

Life's challenges can often leave us feeling fragmented and overwhelmed. But imagine approaching these struggles with a sense of wholeness and purpose. That's why I work with you from a whole-person perceptive: an approach that sees you as a complete individual, not just a collection of symptoms. Together, we will work towards full mind and body wellness. When we can be physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually healthy, we can start to embrace an authentic self, leading to a fulfilling life. This is your invitation to rediscover yourself through a lens of kindness and acceptance.

Are you feeling unhappy, overwhelmed, stressed, confused, unaccepted, sad, and/or unaccomplished? Has life become unmanageable? Uncertain about your life direction or purpose? I help clients develop coping skills to manage the relationship instabilities, focusing limitations, intrusive thoughts, emotional/physical pain, sleep difficulties, lack of progress/motivation, and other concerns due to symptoms of anxiety and depression. It isn’t happiness per se that promotes well being, it’s the actual pursuit of that happiness that is the key to overall wellness.

I believe that one of the most important things a therapist can do is offer a place where people feel accepted for exactly who they are. When people feel accepted they are more comfortable sharing their stories, working towards change, and accepting themselves. With the support of a therapist, it is possible to gain a better understanding of one’s self, improve relationships, effectively manage stress, see things from a different perspective, and replace what is not working with what might work better.

Life is challenging and it just never stays the same! Sometimes we find ourselves in a rough patch where old patterns of behavior just don't work anymore but we don't know what else to do. I believe it's my job to help you find your way through to new answers and behaviors that serve you better. To me, the work of therapy is to find the courage within to change the things that you can, the acceptance to live with what you cannot and most importantly, to figure out which is which! I believe it is my role to help you find your way through this with compassion, humor and insight.

If you want to feel more connected to yourself and others, and more at peace with life, you are not alone. If your inner life feels chaotic or you are struggling with substance abuse, changing moods, fear, and hopelessness, you are not alone. Therapy can facilitate the freeing of inner resources, as we shed old ways of responding to the world and to ourselves. Asking for help and moving out of the comfort zone we are used to is difficult, but often occurs when the fear of staying where we are outweighs the fear and discomfort of change. This is a window of opportunity, as the most challenging times are times of growth.

I believe that seeking help for life's struggles doesn't have to feel like work; in fact, I prefer to take "a spoon full of sugar" approach with people of all ages. I enjoy working with people who are interested in learning about themselves or who find themselves adjusting to transitions. Loss, chronic illness, parenting, anxiety and/or depression are all areas of familiarity.

"Life is like the river, sometimes it sweeps you gently along, and sometimes the rapids come out of nowhere." Emma Smith. I am here to support each individual or family as their "rapids" appear. Sometimes "rapids" develop from past lived experiences, some arise from challenging situations and relationships, still others just happen. I operate within a person centered approach and believe that counseling is different for everyone and the individual is the one in control of the direction and outcome, while I am present to guide and maneuver through the rough waters of life.
