Hello! My name is Torri-Marie Pappas and I have been working with children, adolescents, adults, and their families since 2000; first as a special education teacher then as a social worker for more than 10 years. I completed my undergraduate degree at the University of Maine Farmington with a BA in psychology and a BS in early childhood education with K-3 Certification. I completed my Master's in Education at Lesley University in 2012. I later completed my Master's in Clinical Social Work at Capella University in March 2022.
Throughout my career, I have worked in of several different areas of the public school system, government agencies, crisis services and assessment, domestic violence and mental health services. I am also a volunteer serving local veterans. I am looking forward to meeting clients and helping support their individual needs.
I’m a licensed therapist with more than 20 years of experience in behavioral health. I trained at Goddard College, earned my doctorate in public health from Tulane University, and am licensed to practice in both Maine and Vermont.
I work with individuals navigating a wide range of emotional, relational, and life challenges. My approach is grounded in an existential perspective, which means I help clients explore questions of meaning, identity, connection, and how their environments shape their wellbeing. I believe that even healthy people can become symptomatic in unhealthy environments, and I work collaboratively with clients to better understand their experiences, build insight, and move toward lives that feel more authentic and sustainable.
My goal is to offer a thoughtful, supportive space where clients can reflect, heal, and make meaningful change.
Mental health struggles impact everyone. It is up to us to take action to seek out those professionally trained to help us navigate our challenges. This assists us in achieving our goals of better coping, higher functioning, and creating stronger connections that result in happier, more resilient and better versions of ourselves. I have experience working with clients from every socioeconomic background and most diagnoses including those who struggle with the lasting effects of ongoing or past substance use and trauma. I have a greater understanding of the impacts declining mental health can have on every aspect of our lives.
I am a husband, a father of two adult children, and a corgi dad. I am not a true Mainer as I moved here about 4 years ago from Pennsylvania where I spent most of my life. But, I have adopted Maine as my own. I love the outdoors and spend as much time as I can in them.
As far as the more formal stuff, I spent a lot of time in school. My credentials include a Bachelor of Science in Biology from Ursinus College, a Masters of Education in Counseling from Rutgers University, an Executive Masters of Business Administration in Healthcare Administration from California Pacific University, a Masters and Doctorate in Clinical Psychology and a Juris Doctorate in Law all from Widener University.
I have 20+ years management experience in behavioral health, managed care, academia and private practice settings. I have run my private practice for more than 30 years, have been a program administrator, corporate compliance/privacy officer, clinical director, program chairperson, and director of quality management during my career. I have taught at more than 20 colleges and universities. I have advised, supervised, trained, and taught hundreds of graduate students and professional counselors. I have also presented at many state, regional and national conferences and provided numerous trainings to social service and criminal justice professionals.
Hi, I’m Delilah, and I’m glad you’re here.
Starting therapy can feel vulnerable, overwhelming, or even a little awkward—and thats okay. I believe therapy works best when it feels human, collaborative, and grounded in real life. My goal is to create a space where you feel understood, supported, and empowered to make meaningful change at your own pace.
I have experience working with individuals and families through complex challenges, including homelessness, substance use, severe and chronic mental health conditions, medical conditions, life transitions, and navigating real-world problems. This work has shaped my approach to be practical, compassionate, and focused on meeting people where they are.
Additionally, I have completed extensive continuing education and specialized training to support diverse client needs. I am a certified RUBI-trained parent coach, helping caregivers build effective, connected strategies at home for children experiencing neurodivergence and behaviorally defiant behaviors through evidence-based parent support and skill development.
Also, I am an NATC-certified clinician specializing in the recovery and treatment of narcissistic abuse, supporting clients in rebuilding identity, strengthening boundaries, restoring self-trust, and creating healthier relationships.
Whether you are navigating healing, growth, parenting challenges, recovery, or simply looking to reconnect with yourself, therapy can be a place to begin.
I have always had a passion for helping others, and know from experience what a difference it makes finding the right counselor. Through my career I have worked with a diverse group of adults and adolescents across the US. I bring 8 years of knowledge, compassion, and experience to our sessions. I can't wait to get started with you!
