Compassionate
Psychodynamic Psychotherapy in Portland, Maine.
Offering in-person, depth-oriented therapy to adults, couples and families in Portland + virtual sessions throughout Maine.
I specialize in working with relationships and interpersonal issues, as well as attachment & complex trauma.
I offer weekly and twice-weekly relational psychotherapy for adults & teens in my Portland, Maine office (in-person or via Zoom/telehealth).
Many of my clients arrive to counseling seeking a deeper sense of connection and ease—with themselves or their relationships. This might encompass social anxiety, loneliness, overwhelm, or questions around gender & sexuality. Others are stuck repeating old patterns, are unable to stay present, or just feel something is "off." I view the therapeutic relationship as a space for both challenge and safety; to better understand the experiences that shape us and, gradually, move toward a greater sense of aliveness and joy.
Talking helps
-
Individual Therapy
Explore patterns in your inner life, relationships, identity, and sense of self. Individual therapy can support anxiety, trauma, attachment wounds, emotional overwhelm, creative blocks, and the desire to live with more clarity, freedom, and aliveness.
-
Couples/Duo Therapy
Support for relationships of all kinds, including couples, partners, friends, co-parents, ex-partners, and nontraditional constellations. Together, we can explore trust, communication, intimacy, trauma, conflict, and the patterns that shape how you relate.
-
Family Therapy
Family patterns can be some of the hardest to notice and shift. I work with adult family members to explore long-standing dynamics, improve communication, address conflict, and create more honest, flexible ways of relating.
-
LGBTQ+ Affirming Therapy
A supportive space for exploring gender, sexuality, identity, belonging, relationships, and self-understanding. This work is affirming, non-pathologizing, and grounded in respect for the complexity of who you are and who you are becoming.
-
Trauma Therapy
Trauma can live in the mind, body, relationships, and sense of self. Therapy can help you understand old patterns, move at a safe pace, and create new possibilities for connection, presence, and healing.
