Therapists in Maine

1. Life is hard. 2. Everything Changes. 3. There is an ever-fluctuating flow of experience. -3 Basic Truths from Buddha Can you imagine having a trained professional support and guide you through the ups and downs of life? I see myself as a skills-based teacher that will support and encourage you to “create a life worth living (-Marsha Linehan).” Anxiety, depression, mood dysregulation, and feeling stuck can hinder us in our journey to be the best versions of ourselves.

Bird's Eye Wellness focuses on offering supported, holistic and integrative psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy with the use of ketamine. This type of therapy can support people in deepening their therapeutic process, particularly for those who have struggled with depression or anxiety. Perhaps you feel stuck or unable to access parts of yourself or of painful past traumas. It requires the intentional decision to take a deep look inward, with curiosity and compassion, to better understand ourselves to support our journey to wholeness. I believe everyone has the innate ability to heal if given the optimized conditions to do so.

Hello, thank you for taking time to be here. Therapy is an investment in time, personal commitment, and money. My practice has shifted since COVID to seeing less people, for 60 to 90 minutes, and not accepting insurance. Hakomi, Mindfulness, Somatic Psychology, CBT and other modalities are part of the support provided as people move through grief (death, terminal illness, divorce...); healing past trauma, re-surfacing or ready to liberate from, the lies they embed in our narratives; and reclaiming the day to day wakefulness of being. Anxiety, depression, problems at the macro level, benefit from mindfulness and action, and therapy.

If you are reading this, then I think it goes without saying you are looking for help or support with something - why else would you be here right? Perhaps you are having a hard time connecting with or trusting others. Maybe you are having a hard time telling others how you feel about things or are overwhelmed by tasks others seem to handle with ease. It could be you are feeling stuck, unhappy, lonely, or worn down. Perhaps you recently lost someone or something and are having a hard time saying goodbye.

Making the choice to start therapy can be a scary step. I believe that every client should be supported by a therapist who brings a sense of realness, support, encouragement, and knowledge to each and every session. You should be able to walk into every session with a feeling of comfort and safety discussing your struggles. My goal is to bring those qualities while helping clients find relief, understanding, and their purpose.

As a fully licensed Clinical Psychotherapist, I believe that everyone has a desire to be successful in their life, but sometimes lack the skills or supports to achieve that goal.

In a world that is constantly on the go I feel that it is important to take sometime to understand oneself and needs.

Addiction can take such a heavy toll on us, and on the people, we care about the most, I’d like to help.
