Adults Therapists in Portland, ME
Within the last fifteen years, I have also been offering individual therapy to adults.
Hello. I am a grief therapist in Portland. I work with adults that are experiencing the loss of a loved one. When we experience loss, we experience grief. Grief is a natural process that at some point in time affects each of us. Grief is painful. Compassion and empathy are at the heart of my grief practice. My intention is to meet you, the griever, wherever you may be on your journey of sorrow and loss. There is no road map for the grieving process. It is my hope that as you share your journey of loss that a new pathway may be forged whereby you regain your footing to a path of peace and resolution.

I specialize in growth-oriented therapy for adults wanting to feel more satisfaction in their relationships, to address family dynamics and conflicts, and struggling with self-criticism, shame, and self-esteem.
Pursuing therapy represents a desire to heal. Whether dealing with a new challenge or an old wound, my work with clients is focused on supporting the process of healing and learning to "let go" of the harmful patterns that get in the way of feeling satisfaction, peace, and fulfillment in our lives and relationships. As a psychotherapist, my goal is to create an environment in which you can pause, reflect, and feel supported in acknowledging the emotions that many of us learn to avoid, dismiss, and push down.

I enjoy working with families, children, adolescents, college students, vets, older adults and many people who are just trying to figure out who they are (and, let's face it, we all have some child to us, which is why I say I'm a child therapist even though I see people of all ages).
I work from a perspective that focuses on joining you in the present and, at the same time, putting your current experiences and perspectives in context by exploring how your personal history currently impacts your life. I'm happy to meet with most adults, couples, families, and kids as well as adolescents (just remember that no matter the age of your child, there will probably be some family therapy). I take a laid back approach, but I'm serious about your health. Please get in touch and let's see if I'm a good fit for you.

Are you ready to create change? Loads of information coming at our nervous systems on a regular basis, paired with unreasonable expectations of how to show up in the world often leave us feeling overwhelmed, anxious, depressed, angry and hopeless. When our brains and bodies are out of whack, they signal us that we need help by making it hard to ignore. Together, we will explore your lived experience to find what has made meaning for you, and what you feel needs shifting. You may have trauma, relationship challenges, low self worth, or mounting stress. Or you may be seeking support for your child's moods, behaviors, or both.

I believe that the most helpful therapeutic experiences and the most rewarding growth happens when there is a genuine connection between client and clinician. When working together you can expect that I will be empathetic, sincere, gentle and straightforward. I have an appreciation for the balance humor and levity can offer in a counseling session. My approach is trauma-informed and person-centered. I will offer psychoeducation and skills support without leaning heavily on clinical language.

Because of this work, I often work with adolescents as well as adults, which sometimes involves the family/extended family during some phase of therapy, resulting in a more holistic approach.
CUSTOM COUNSELING, LLC is client centered-focused, counseling each unique individual with a personal approach, understanding and treatment. I believe that, if we don't have a 'connection', a relationship upon which to build trust and confidence in our work, we both won't succeed in our work together. Therefore, I spend as much time as needed, in order for that rapport, that connection, to be solid. Sometimes, it takes a brief time, in order to complete therapy with desired/ positive results; sometimes, it's a longer process. Our sessions don't end until we both feel confident and comfortable with our progress.
