I have been working in the mental health and addiction field here in Lewiston Maine for over 15 years. I have experience working with a wide range of populations in different disciplines including case management, residential treatment programs for adolescents and adults, inpatient hospital settings as well as facilitating multiple intensive outpatient programs. My primary focus is on treating individuals working through trauma, anxiety disorders, depression, mood disorders, grief and loss, and addiction or chemical dependency issues. I have special interest in the perinatal population and utilizing EMDR to address trauma.
As your therapist I am here to support you through the challenges that arise in life and to assist you with achieving your own version of a life worth living. |
