Hi! I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Pennsylvania. I received my Masters from Philadelphia University and have been practicing for the past 9 years. I help people of all ages struggling with anxiety, depression, self-esteem and any other general life stresses. I am passionate about helping others evolve and grow to live in the best possible version of themselves.
I work with individuals navigating emotional pain, life transitions, and personal growth, offering a steady, compassionate therapeutic presence.
With nearly 30 years of experience in the mental health field, I have dedicated my career to helping individuals navigate life's challenges with compassion, respect, and clinical insight. I have had the privilege of working with people from all walks of life, supporting them through concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties, life transitions, and personal growth.
For nearly two decades, I have served as a therapist in a college counseling setting in Vermont, working closely with young adults during pivotal stages of their development. In addition, I have provided care in both community mental health and hospital emergency settings, supporting individuals and families in moments of acute crisis. These diverse clinical experiences have deepened my understanding of the many ways people experience distress and the many pathways toward healing.

I have been practicing as a licensed therapist for 10 years and specialize in helping people reclaim their lives by healing from the pain of trauma, anxiety, and depression. I am trained as a clinical mental health counselor with additional specializations in play therapy and trauma focused work. I work with all populations from preteen into adulthood.
I’m Rosemary, a licensed psychiatric nurse practitioner who is deeply committed to walking alongside you through life’s more tender and challenging moments. I work with adults who are navigating grief, loss, and major life transitions, and I also offer faith based therapy for those who want to incorporate their spiritual beliefs into the healing process.
Before specializing in mental health, I spent many years as a family nurse practitioner, which shaped the way I see people as whole and complex individuals. I believe everyone carries a story that deserves to be heard with care and respect. If you are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or searching for meaning in a difficult season, I want to hear your story and help you find a way forward that feels true to you.
Hello, I’m Cara, a licensed clinical social worker with a master’s degree in social work. My approach is warm, down‐to‐earth, and collaborative. I believe therapy works best when it feels genuine and human. Together, we’ll explore your experiences, build on your strengths, and use practical, evidence‐based tools like coping strategies, mindset shifts, and boundary work. I make space for humor and real connection, combining these skills with deeper exploration of patterns, self‐compassion, and emotional insight to support lasting, meaningful change.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Portsmouth
Finding the right therapist in Portsmouth starts with getting clear on what kind of care you need. Therapists, counselors, psychologists, and psychiatrists each bring different training and credentials. If you're looking for talk therapy for anxiety, depression, or relationship concerns, a licensed therapist (such as an LMHC, LCSW, or LMFT) is a common starting point. If you need medication management, a psychiatrist or psychiatric nurse practitioner may be the right fit. Many providers in the Portsmouth seacoast area offer both virtual and in-person sessions, so you can choose the format that works for your schedule.
With several directories listing providers across New Hampshire, it can be hard to tell who is actually accepting new patients and who takes your specific plan. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their approach, specialties, and what a first session might look like — so you can feel more confident before you book.
Therapy in Portsmouth can be expensive without insurance. Using your in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce what you pay per session. On Headway, you can enter your insurance information to see estimated session costs before you book, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a provider who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.
