Non-licensed Therapists

I provide strength-based, solution-focused therapy and personal coaching.

Rather than emphasizing what’s “wrong” or “missing,” my Therapy Services focus on mobilizing the unique strengths and resources you already possess to facilitate the changes you want to see in your life.

My Personal Coaching Services focus what you want, what’s holding you back, and on achieving your desires as quickly and effectively as possible. Although issues from the past may be discussed, coaching is present- and future-focused and addresses these issues only as they relate to your current life and future goals.

I view your sexuality and gender identity as an important part of who you are, but only as one part of a complex and layered identity.

I am a body-centered counselor trained in the Rubenfeld Synergy Method of body/mind work, with extensive experience working with poly, kinky, queer and gender-nonconforming individuals. I approach clients’ stories and challenges with an attitude of openness, discovery, and compassion - seeking not to diagnose or identify what’s “wrong” with you, but to help you become more aware of your own responses and habits when under stress, and locate the resources you can turn to for strength.

I work using both talk and touch (as appropriate to the client’s needs and preferences), and employ techniques of breathwork, meditation, and movement in addition to more traditional talk. My approach is holistic and integrative, with the goal of guiding the whole self to greater health and resilience.

Compassionate counseling services provided in person or on the phone at affordable rates to fit your budget. Solution focused, I help you turn your life/relationship challenges into opportunities for connection and growth.

Relationships bring both deep joy and pain because we are all doing our best to get our own needs met. What started out as something exciting, erotic and caring can easily turn into unresolved conflicts, pain and blaming each other. Often in the chaos of intense feelings and interpsersonal conflict, we lose sight of any tools or skills we can use to create a life we all want. My goals are to help you to become more aware of who you, what you want, how to communite when those wants/needs collide with the wants/needs of the ones you love, and most importantly to create a process that builds bridges, trust and connection in order to deal with the inevitable ups and downs that are inherent in “more loving.”

I’ve have been personally involved in both BDSM and poly relationships for over a decade. It has been an honor to bring the passion I have to support individuals, couples and families for 30 years to the sex-positive community.

I work with people on the full spectrum of neurotypes, gender identities, sexual orientations, and relationship structures. If you identify as LGBTQA+, CNM and/or neurodiverse, you are especially welcome and supported.

RELATIONSHIP MEDIATION AND/OR COACHING Do you feel heard and understood by your partner, coparent, family member, coworker, or friend? Are you aligned in your values, your goals, your desires? If not, you are not alone. I work with pairs and groups of people to identify each person’s feelings and needs and to brainstorm clear and actionable solutions that will optimally meet the needs of all involved.

COLLABORATIVE DIVORCE & CO-PARENTING AGREEMENTS Sometimes people decide to transition out of their relationship in its current form. This can mean entirely severing ties, but often it means transitioning the relationship into something different: from spouses to divorced co-parents, from lovers to friends. Divorce and separation can be done with respect and care for all involved. I have mediated hundreds of Family Matters cases in the Maine Judicial System (divorce, custody/ contact, and child support disputes). I can support your family through the major transition of divorce or through minor “tune ups” to your co-parenting agreements. I will assist you with navigating the decisions that need to be made regarding the kids and finances in a way that supports a positive, supportive, and peaceful transition for the whole family.
