Therapists in Maine

My name is Christina McGuire and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Maine with 15 years of experience providing mental health therapy to young adults, individual and families. I am a graduate of the University of Southern Maine where I earned my Master's in Social Work and I am also a graduate of the University of New Hampshire where I studied the practice and administration of Outdoor Education and Experiential Learning. Within the past 5 years I have become licensed to provide support to people struggling with Substance Use issues. Much of my training has come from working and teaching in both the outdoors and within traditional settings like schools, health centers and people's homes where I have therapeutically supported people to "learn from their experience". I believe that our lives provide us with a wide variety of experiences that impact us. Depending on our relationships, resources, personal health /wellness and resiliency, the stressors that we face can become thought provoking to overwhelming and life changing situations that can require a great deal of support to work through and learn from. I became a mental health therapist because I believe that being with others through life changing experiences and helping them to learn the skills to improve their ability to cope is a privilege. My therapeutic style is laid back, person centered, strengths based, relational and goal oriented. I believe that through working together, individuals can make great changes in the quality of their lives and the lives of others.

Hello! If you have decided to reach out via Better Help, you are likely struggling with something significant in your life. Finding the right person to help you through these challenges is very important. If you don't have a good relationship with your counselor, you won't make the progress you are hoping to achieve. I want to provide you with some information about me to help you decide if my experience and style are the right fit for you. I have been a social worker for more than 17 years and have experience working with people from all different backgrounds who are struggling with a wide variety of challenges. Much of my experience has been working with people who are struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, substance abuse, and the challenges of parenting. I have spent a lot of my career working with families in crisis who are in danger of child protective involvement. I had been a clinician in a residential program working with at-risk youth for 8 years. I am currently a program manager at a residential substance abuse program for women. The feedback I receive from clients is that they find me to be honest and direct, non-judgmental, and a good listener. I believe that a clinician is someone who can walk with you through some of life’s difficulties that people have to face. I feel that often just being heard is helpful. I can interact with you in whatever manner you are most comfortable with. I believe that it is important to meet clients where they are at and I am open to working via video sessions, phone calls, and messaging. The first meetings should focus on establishing a therapeutic alliance so that you feel like the person you are working with is a good fit for you. At this time most of my availability is in the evenings and on the weekends but I check messages often during each weekday. I know how hard it can be to find a counselor with who you feel a connection with and I would be honored to work with you through this stage of your life. Jump on to my schedule and see if there is a time slot that works for you and your schedule.

I bring an NLP perspective, at times. I tailor dialogue and treatment plans to meet your unique and specific needs. It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps toward change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.
