Maine Community Health Options Therapists in Windham, ME
Most of my clients have used alcohol or drugs as a crutch over the years and that has progressed into a daily habit that becomes a way of coping with life. This eventually leads to excessive drinking and drug use and can cause chaos in a person's life...and the lives of the people that love them. My goal is to help you develop coping skills that allow you to deal with life's difficulties without picking up a drink or a drug. Life can be so much better when you are not tethered to a drink or a drug in order to get through your day.

Choosing a recovery path is very individual and what may work for one person may not work for another. What I am interested in is what works for you and supporting you with the goals you want to achieve. I provide a confidential and caring environment giving you the opportunity to be in a neutral space and explore what's important to you. I offer alcohol/drug counseling for those wanting support in their recovery, struggling with addiction and for their loved ones, mutual aid support groups, parenting education groups. Please feel free to read more about what I offer & my qualifications section below.

Office has moved to Windham! We all have capacity for growth, regardless of where we begin. Life is fluid and people are not diagnostic labels, contrary to what social media would tell you. I utilize an integrative model in my work, incorporating different therapeutic styles depending on the client and the circumstances. My basic approach is psychodynamic in nature - helping you to understand what has happened in your life so you can better see the patterns that are no longer serving you, and identifying actions with you to change them.

New season here in Maine is slowly approaching as the February coldness passes. Personal change like the seasons can be a challenge, past experiences may impact the way forward, some need extra help working through trauma or some other issue. My practice could potentially help. I provide services in an up front and honest manner. My approach is to have active dialogue, not just sitting, typing, and waiting for something to happen. This means focusing on a growth mindset, a willingness to heal/change, being realistic, and genuine engagement in therapy. Learning to be responsible for yourself is part of change.

Are you constantly worried about what might happen? Do you re-play situations in your mind and wish you could go back and change what you said? Do you doubt yourself?

I work with clients who struggle with addiction, depression, anxiety, past life events and trauma that prevent them from accepting themselves and fully embracing joy in their lives. Each person must confront their own challenges but don't always have the tools needed to reach their life goals. A trusted professional can be a helpful partner in walking this path with you until you have the skills/insights needed to continue your journey confidently. I offer a safe and respectful place to look at yourself, your situation, consider alternatives and practice new skills with my support to help reach your goals.

Not accepting new clients. I have been a therapist in Maine for 25 years, initially at the Master's level; I completed my PhD in Clinical Psychology in 2012. I work with people from all walks of life - people of diverse ethnicities, orientations, and beliefs. I have worked at in- and out-patient programs, and in private practice; with people who are having difficulty adjusting to changing life circumstances, and with people with severe, persistent, mental illness. This has confirmed my belief that, while our differences should be celebrated, human beings can always find connection, and those connections can be the basis for healing.

I am NOT currently accepting new clients. My practice is based on treating each person as an adult who has the power to create positive changes in their life. I am only there to help each person with their goals. I believe everyone has the capacity to change their life for the better. Sometimes though, someone has to be willing to sit with us in the darkness first. I believe that no matter what has happened there is a spark in each one of us, that once lit gives us the chance to change our own lives.
