Do you struggle with feeling like the weight of the world is on your shoulders? Do you struggle with finding personal and work-life balance? Do you find it hard to cope with current life stressors and situations? Do you struggle with the pain of your past life experiences presenting itself in your day to day? Can you imagine a place where you are free to be yourself, a place where you can share your thoughts and feelings and be open without the fear of judgment? Being seen, heard and understood is important and necessary to taking the steps on the journey to a healthier you. Hello, I am Felicia and as a therapist, I endeavor to create a space to allow self-awareness, true healing and personal growth to happen. We all have different life experiences and sometimes figuring out how to deal and cope with those experiences is challenging and requires a little help. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, grief, chronic stress, trauma, struggling with relationships or a life transition, change is possible. Through our work together I want to help you meet your goals as you take this journey to feel better. I'll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques so you can overcome hurdles in your life. I view therapy as a safe space for processing life experiences, emotions, thoughts, and trauma to achieve one’s goals and necessary growth. My goal as a therapist is to collaborate with you to understand your thought processes, address barriers to wellness, and identify ways in which you can achieve your goals. I believe that clients are the experts of their own lives; however, sometimes need an outside perspective to help re-frame our thinking. Asking for help isn't easy and you are not alone! We all need support at times and I would be honored to be that support for you! Thanks again for taking the first step on this journey to a healthier you.

Hi! I'm Leyla. Welcome. I am glad you're here. Are you sick and tired of existing in a White Supremacist capitalistic hellscape? The pain inside of you is reflective of the collective chaos outside of you. Your feelings are valid. 🫂 If this resonates with you, look no further. Your anti-capitalist therapist is here. I believe that healing as individuals requires recognition of the trauma of structural oppression and dominance. With this in mind, I center anti-racist + anti-oppressive, LGBTQIA+-affirming, disability justice, and intersectional feminist values into my practice. I reflect on and recognize the privileges I hold and how these have assisted me in navigating the world. The lens I look through may be of interest to you. I am a second generation immigrant settler from Lebanon/Sweden. I am Autistic, ADHD and a survivor. I am able-bodied and live with chronic illness. I am cis-gender and queer. I am a Person of the Global Majority (PoGM). I live in the colonized portion of Wabanaki territory now known as Mount Desert Island, Maine. I support gender-diverse individuals with many neurotypes. My clients tend to be highly intellectual & deep thinkers -- "Talented & Gifted burn-out kids" who are in the process of unmasking. Many of my clients are late-diagnosed/un-diagnosed Autistic and//or ADHD, hyper-sensitive//hyper-self aware//highly anxious folx who may experience obsessive thinking, executive dysfunction, social withdrawl, sensory overwhelm and relationship conflict. Many of my clients identify as the black sheep or scapegoat of their families and are cycle breakers of intergenerational trauma. I vibe with symbolic thinkers who are interested in understanding themselves and how their early childhood experiences shaped their relational patterns today. If this sounds like you, I look forward to supporting you on this journey!

Hey, everyone! Welcome! My name is Samantha and I have been a clinician for the past twelve years or so. I love helping my clients to reach their full potential and to achieve their goals, and I find being a clinician to be so special and rewarding. I have experience working with clients of all ages in settings such as K-12 schools, juvenile justice, long-term care/geriatrics, etc. I am a mom, and it is the BEST job in the world and yet is also the most challenging job in the world! What a rollercoaster ride, huh? In my free time I enjoy listening to audiobooks, de-cluttering (it's therapeutic for me!), and spending time with my family. Fun fact- I also have a Bachelor’s degree in Philosophy and I took two years of Japanese language classes in high school!

Hello and thank you for visiting my profile! Reaching out for help is a big step for many people and I truly appreciate your courage and willingness to lean into growth and problem-solving! I am excited to get to know more about you and how I might be helpful or supportive. I operate from a strong relationally-based approach that is client-centered, solution-focused, and non-judgmental. I am very committed to building rapport, open communication, and assisting in helping you meet the goals you set, at the pace that you feel is appropriate. I believe in creating a nurturing, comfortable, and safe space for expression that promotes authentic exploration and insight. To tell you a bit about myself, I have been an independently licensed social worker since 2013. I earned my undergraduate degree in psychology from Wheaton College in Massachusetts (2006) and my master's degree in social work from the University of New England in Maine (2010). I spent much of my earlier professional career working with children/adolescents, young adults, and families, primarily within the confluence of mental health and education, before transitioning into private practice. My clinical approach and style is always crafted for the person/people sitting in front of me, drawing influence from Cognitive Behavioral, Behavioral, Dialectical Behavioral, Humanistic, and Somatic forms of Therapy (among others), including techniques in mindfulness, rational emotive therapy, applied behavioral analysis, family systems, relational therapy, and narrative therapy. We will work together to figure out what you are comfortable exploring and how I can be most effective in helping you to reach your goals. My therapeutic skillset is strongest with individual challenges related to behavioral/emotional management (such as coping with strong feelings or life events, self-control, child/adolescent social/emotional/behavioral struggles), identity formation/re-formation/life transitions (exploring feelings of being lost or alone, questions such as, "Who am I? How do I figure out who I am/who I want to be/what I want to do with my life moving forward? How have/are experiences and influences affecting my sense of self and others?"), and relational dynamics (family systems, parent/child relationships, sibling relationships, and peer relationships). I am also well-practiced in working with people who are struggling with symptoms of anxiety, depression, and trauma. As stated above, it takes courage and strength to lean into putting the work into actively creating change in a positive direction. The fact that you are here reading profiles is an accomplishment to be celebrated! I am here for you if/when you are ready, and look forward to celebrating your future achievements!
