Everyone is subject to facing challenges in life, some more difficult than others. It's common to need extra support during these times, it can often bring us comfort, reassurance and clarity. Remembering that we are strong, resilient and that we hold our own solutions can be empowering and provide confidence. When faced with mental health related symptoms, addictions issues or family addiction issues, it's easy to become overwhelmed and forget what we need to do to take care of ourselves. Seeking therapy is a brave and decisive way to provide self care. We are often more kind to others than we are to ourselves, prioritize you.

My clients are welcomed into a safe and positive environment designed to foster personal change. This process is a journey of partnership. I believe that my part in counseling is that of a guide and support for individuals seeking new ways to meet their life challenges. I use cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness to help with achieving personal goals. Breathing techniques are basic to reducing anxiety and stress. Along with individual and couples counseling, I offer group counseling as an effective tool in the process of change. Stress reduction, improved communication skills and enhanced self awareness are the goal.

I am a solution-focused therapist who believes that therapy with straight talk, a willingness to try new things - and a liberal dash of humor – leads to growth, healing, and more joy. Your brain isn’t broken (even if it feels that way) and you have strengths that you can use to help you feel better. We can identify your strengths and work on using them more effectively so you can tackle the sticky areas of life that are weighing you down.

Are you a highly-motivated, ambitious individual who thrives on the pursuit of excellence? Is your goal-oriented nature constantly driving you towards perfection? I'm Jackie, clinical therapist with A Simple Therapy, and I’m right there with you. I understand the unique challenges (and advantages!) that come with a high-achieving personality.

Thanks for taking the first step with me; I'm Belle and I am an Asian American clinician, community builder, born and raised in Maine. When I am not in the office, you can probably find me in search of my next oat milk latte, or catching up on my reading in a local coffee shop. Other things I enjoy (in no particular order) include: Cultivating eclectic playlists on Spotify, being near my rescue dog, taking a Spin class, and going way down a Wiki hole. As a therapist, I believe our relationships and how we engage within them shape who we are, the meanings we create, and our outlooks on life.

In my practice I aim to meet you with care and compassion wherever you find yourself in life. Whether you are going through a major transition or carrying wounding from earlier in life, your experiences can impact how you connect with yourself and those around you. Together we will explore the best way to support you and address what may be getting in the way of deeper healing.
