Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Maine

Hi, I’m a licensed clinical social worker with over 14 years of experience supporting individuals and families through life’s challenges. Since beginning my work in 2009, I’ve provided therapy across community-based, office, and virtual settings, giving me a well-rounded understanding of how to meet clients where they are—both practically and emotionally.

I specialize in working with anxiety, OCD, panic disorder, and trauma-related concerns. I understand how overwhelming these experiences can feel, and I’m passionate about helping clients make sense of what’s happening beneath the surface while building practical, sustainable tools for change.

My approach is both compassionate and structured. I draw from evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), helping clients identify patterns, develop coping strategies, and move toward greater emotional regulation and confidence in their daily lives.

I believe therapy works best when it feels safe, collaborative, and real. Whether you're navigating persistent anxiety, intrusive thoughts, past trauma, or current life stressors, my goal is to support you in feeling more grounded, understood, and equipped to move forward.

Hello! I am accepting new clients at this time.

My name is Angelica, and I am a clinical-level social worker. I have been working in the field of social services for the past 12 years.

After completing my MSW, I started as a school-based social worker, and I have been doing this ever since. I love being able to help people and hear their stories. Everyone has a story to tell, and someone should be there to support and listen.

I think of myself as a responsive, strengths-based, and empathetic counselor. I think everyone deserves grace, and often everyone is going through something that no one knows about. I have had the privilege to work with a wide variety of people, including youth, adults, elderly, adolescents, people with disabilities, and many other people in between. From crisis intervention services, to individual, to group-based therapy, and social skills groups. I have dabbled in a bit of everything in the field so far. I like getting to know the person I am working with, and then coming up with a plan together about what can help!

Born and raised in a healthcare family, I grew up at the dinner table hearing about all things, medicine and healthcare. I went into the field on my own for the first time at 18 years old and have never left. My first degree is a Bachelor of Science In Applied Psychology. I then went and completed a Bachelor of Nursing followed by my Master’s in Nursing and my Post Masters Certificate in Psychiatric Mental Health. I have extensive experience working with children and adolescence as well as adults. I am an engaged active listener, and I excel at making sure patients feel comfortable and heard.
