Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Maine

Welcome to TrueSelf Counseling & Consulting! I’m so glad you’re here!

Do you sometimes feel “stuck,” like nothing can change? It takes courage to reach out. If you are ready to take that step, I'd love to hear your story.

My name is Alison Mitchell. I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) in NH and ME. In addition, I hold a PhD in Clinical Social Work from the Smith College School for Social Work. My MSW is from the University of Maine School of Social Work.

I work individually with adults experiencing life transitions, parenting stress, depression, anxiety, or traumatic stress, often in combination with substance use disorder. I hope to facilitate your work building yourself and connecting with others in healthy ways. The overall goal is to cultivate your sense of who you are, moving toward who you want to be.

Hello, I'm Sarah. With 30 years of professional experience in the mental health field, I've had the privilege of working in hospitals, clinics, and private practice settings. My journey has equipped me with a diverse skill set and a deep understanding of the complexities of mental health. I hold a Master's degree and am a Licensed Independent Social Worker, dedicated to supporting individuals through their unique challenges.

I provide supportive therapy to adults and adolescents who are struggling with complex trauma, depression, anxiety, codependency, OCD and relationship issues. I work to help you evaluate what thought patterns, core beliefs, and behaviors are no longer serving you and to develop tools to self-soothe, affirm yourself, set boundaries, enhance authenticity and communicate effectively.

I am a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with over 20 years of experience in behavioral health, hospice, and primary care mental health integration. Skilled in psychiatric assessment, diagnosis, treatment planning, and intervention, I have worked with diverse populations including children, seniors, veterans, incarcerated individuals, and patients with severe mental illness. I excel at integrating the biopsychosocial model to deliver patient-centered outcomes and continuity of care.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 10 years of experience in the field I specialize in supporting individuals navigating trauma, depression, anxiety, ADHD, grief, adjustment and the complex emotional impact of narcissistic and antagonistic relationships. I am also deeply committed to acknowledging and addressing cultural and racial experiences that often shape how we see ourselves, others, and the world around us.

My work is grounded in building trust and creating a safe, warm environment where you are met with compassion—not judgment. I believe healing begins when you feel heard, understood, and supported exactly where you are. Together, we will work at a pace that honors your story, personal experiences and your strengths, focusing on building emotional clarity, resilience, and empowerment along the way.
