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. View 8 Photos 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 43 states.
