Do you experience the outdoors as a place of healing and comfort? Can you imagine meeting with your therapist outside for support? To learn skills to improve your life and overall well-being? I love the outdoors and am excited to offer the option of meeting in person outside for therapy in the Portland and Scarborough areas, with telehealth as a backup when the weather does not cooperate. Indoors or outside, throughout the year, you can expect a supportive and comfortable atmosphere in which to heal and grow when you and/or your partner, or your child or teen meet with me for therapy.

I believe that at the core of all of us is a desire to feel connected. Many things in life can contribute to a feeling of disconnection, including substance use disorder, trauma, or communication problems within relationships. I think the answers are already within each of us. Therapy is a way to unlock those answers so you can live freely and authentically. I believe in fostering a deeply caring, non-judgmental atmosphere where you can feel heard, seen, and supported. I meet people where they are and together, our work involves making incremental changes that improve your life.

Therapy is an opportunity to get to know ourselves more deeply in a safe and supportive space. I am here to listen with empathy and curiosity to the concerns of Mainers via Telehealth. Together we will identify your values and the things that get in the way of growing in the direction of those values. We will work on sitting with emotions rather than fighting against them. And we will identify your strengths and resources to help you grow more fully into yourself. I take a warm, familiar approach to our conversations and leave space for humor and joy in the healing process.
