Therapists in South Portland, ME

My ideal client is a seeker, someone who is working on themselves to become more self-aware, or perhaps trying to understand the craziness of the world. They may be experiencing "spiritual emergencies," NDE's, having out of body experiences or psychic episodes. Most of their issues go beyond day to day problems. They may also have the desire to find the "root" cause of their health problems, and/or attempting to heal/bring their body into balance.

I am client-centered, creative, and interested in a holistic approach to therapy. I work to support individuals coping with: depression, anxiety, women's issues, trauma, and relational issues. I am connected to issues faced by the LGBTQ community. As a mother and an artist, I enjoy working with other creatives and parents. I offer traditional talk therapy, and 'walk & talk' therapy in Portland, Oregon. To learn more about the way I work please visit kierstinolivercounseling.com. I believe in nature as co-therapist, and try to get outside with clients when possible. You get to design your life, I am happy to help with the process.

I am currently at capacity and not accepting new clients. Are you finding that your life isn't what you envisioned? Are you feeling depleted, anxious, stuck, parenting a challenging child, or wondering who you are? Are you looking for a safe, nurturing environment with a highly skilled practitioner? Especially an authentic person who believes that the process can and should include laughter? Clients are often pleasantly surprised with the wide array of tools and experience I draw on, including guided meditations created based on your preferred images and desired length. I then emailed to you, to access at any time.

Through exploration of your daily rituals and future desires, you'll better understand how your uniqueness and skills can bring personal transformation. I'll challenge you to work within. Through self-awareness and personal responsibility, you can know yourself as a profound, unique being. My expertise includes sexuality, alternative relationship dynamics, and depression with deep experience regarding gender identity exploration and with people identifying as LGBT. I bring a real-world existential approach to the client relationship, emphasizing your overall well-being. While helping you integrate emotional and physical wellness.
