About
It's a joy, passion, and privilege doing this work. Over the past 20 years, I've practiced in school settings, community mental health, managed care, VA hospitals, university counseling centers, and private practice. My clinical interests are in fear, stress, depression, and suicide; creativity and the expressive arts; issues of intimacy and vulnerability in relationships; and issues of culture, identity, and liberation - especially regarding race, gender, sexuality, and spirituality. My specialized training (20 years) is in Buddhist psychology, trauma-informed creative art therapy, and exposure therapy for anxiety and trauma. My primary therapy approaches are Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Multicultural Therapy (20 years experience) - with a holistic focus on mind, heart, body, and multicultural, intersectional identity. In addition to in-person therapy in Maine, I am licensed by Psychology Interjurisdictional Compact (PSYPACT) to practice online/telehealth in 40 states. I value therapy relationships firmly built on understanding, reliability, acceptance, and trust. And, I also value therapy that pushes and challenges clients time and again - to look at themselves honestly; to understand the impact of their thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and relationships; and to create meaningful and fulfilling changes in their lives.
