ABOUT THERAPY
I provide individual therapy for adults experiencing a wide range of life challenges including depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress, co-occurring substance abuse/dependence, trauma recovery, relationship concerns, and grief and loss.
I have 35 years of clinical experience, including serving as the Clinical Director at Community Counseling Center in Portland, and directing behavioral health at Greater Portland Health, a Federally Qualified Health Center.
I employ a strengths based approach that recognizes and builds upon your existing self-knowledge and skills. I provide Internal Family Systems Therapy and Eye Movement, Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR,) both evidence based treatments for the resolution of traumatic experiences, as well as life patterns that feel "stuck".
In addition to serving the general population of adults, I have experience and expertise with Older Adults, Veterans, Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender individuals, and Refugees and Immigrants.
PAYMENT OPTIONS
I am currently contracted with Anthem Blue Cross/Blue Shield, Medicare, Maine Community Health Options, Aetna, Harvard Pilgrim Healthcare, United Health Care, and Martins Point Generations Advantage I am also happy to discuss a self-pay fee if you are not covered by one of these insurance plans and will provide you with an invoice to submit for reimbursement to your insurance or medical savings plan.
GETTING STARTED
I welcome your phone call to discuss whether I would be a good fit to meet your therapy needs. I also value working collaboratively with healthcare providers as needed, to provide you with well-coordinated care.
