Davene, Fecteau
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPCC
Do you feel lost and overwhelmed in the season of life you are in? Perhaps you, like so many of us, have been living through periods of prolonged stress. You may have experienced a significant traumatic event, or a million little things may have piled up. Either way, the methods you have been using to cope just may not be serving you well anymore. Therapy, and the work of healing, is learning how not to abandon yourself. With compassion, curiosity, and acceptance, I collaborate with you on working towards your goals so you can rediscover the wholeness of who you are. In order to heal, your brain and body need to feel safe and secure. You are the expert on your own internal experience, and my role is to assist you in learning how to utilize inner resources to help your mind and nervous system recover gently. I encourage you to not just treat your symptoms, but to go deeper into examining and healing what is causing the symptoms. This creates lasting change and the resources you learn to access in therapy can be utilized throughout your life moving forward.
I offer free phone consultations. Reach out today to learn more so you can decide how to proceed. I look forward to connecting with you.

Marriage and Family Therapist, M.S., Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
My main objective is to create a nurturing environment that empowers you to openly express your thoughts and emotions. Therapy is a collaborative partnership between us, where we work together towards healing and progress. Your input, insights, and experiences are not only valued but also integral to your personal journey.
Tailored to your unique needs and goals, our focus spans from understanding and managing emotions to enhancing communication skills, establishing healthy boundaries, coping with stress and anxiety, recognizing patterns and behaviors, and so much more.
With my natural ability to connect with clients, I effortlessly build rapport and provide a safe, non-judgmental space for self-exploration.
As a therapist, I take pride in actively engaging in the therapeutic process, actively participating and collaborating with you instead of simply observing. Moreover, I am committed to fostering a secure and accepting environment for the exploration of your thoughts and emotions. Together, we can embark on a transformative journey towards growth and well-being.
