Megan Noren
Psychologist, Psy.D.
If you are feeling stuck in the same emotional patterns, struggling to adjust to changing circumstances, or finding yourself overwhelmed by the demands of life, therapy can be a place to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and begin to make meaningful changes.
I'm Dr. Megan Noren, a licensed clinical psychologist and the owner of Maitri Therapy Services. My approach is grounded in compassion, curiosity, and the belief that understanding our emotions can help us develop a deeper sense of self and create healthier relationships. I strive to provide a warm, supportive space where you can feel understood without judgment and explore the experiences that have shaped who you are.
I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship concerns, life transitions, and the mental load that can come with balancing competing demands. I have a particular interest in maternal mental health, including perinatal depression and anxiety and the emotional and identity shifts that accompany parenthood. I also welcome clients exploring questions of identity, self-worth, boundaries, and connection.
In our work together, we'll explore the emotions and patterns that may be keeping you stuck, make sense of painful experiences, and identify what you need to feel more grounded and connected. I draw primarily from Emotion-Focused Therapy, with additional approaches tailored to your needs and goals. My hope is to help you develop greater self-compassion, strengthen your relationships, and build the confidence to live in a way that feels more aligned with your values.
Maitri is a Sanskrit word associated with loving-kindness and benevolence. These ideas reflect the heart of my practice: creating space for connection, trust, courage, and compassion as you work toward healing and growth.
You don't have to navigate everything on your own. I invite you to reach out for a free 15-minute consultation so we can connect, discuss what brings you to therapy, and explore whether working together feels like a good fit.

Dr. April Brown - Doctor of Intimacy
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, NCC, CST,
"I believe that everyone deserves to feel heard, understood, and supported, no matter where they are in life. Seeking therapy isn't a sign of weakness; it's a courageous step toward understanding yourself, healing from life's challenges, and building healthier relationships.
Through Cape Coral Therapists, Therapists in Sarasota, and my individual practice, my goal is to make meaningful mental health and relationship support more accessible.
Whether we connect in person or virtually, what matters most is creating a safe, compassionate space where you can be yourself, explore your emotions, and work toward the changes you want to see.
Remember, you don't have to have everything figured out before asking for help. Sometimes, the first step toward healing is simply allowing yourself to be supported."

Caitlin Fountain
Psychologist, PsyD
Therapy with me is about getting curious, connecting the dots, and seeing your experiences in ways you may never have considered before. I’m authentic, supportive, and not afraid to ask the tough questions that lead to meaningful insight. There’s room for vulnerability, uncomfortable truths, and a healthy dose of dark humor along the way. I especially enjoy working with people who are ready to better understand themselves, challenge old patterns, and make changes that last. Together, we’ll gently open the boxes you’ve kept closed, make sense of what’s inside, and figure out what you want to do with it. You set the pace; I’ll bring the curiosity, compassion, and occasional irreverence.

Dr. Maureen J Gallagher
Psychologist, PhD
My name is Maureen Gallagher, and I am a Licensed Psychologist practicing telehealth in New York, New Jersey, and all PSYPACT states. I have been providing psychotherapy to adults for over twenty years.
Early in my work as a therapist, I noticed how often psychotherapy neglected the body, something my own experience told me was essential. I know firsthand how it feels to carry patterns that are hard to name, and how much changes when we learn to listen to the body with patience and compassion. That understanding shapes the way I sit with every client.
Over the years, my work has deepened through Somatic Experiencing, where I now serve as Faculty, and through Inner Relationship Focusing, which I teach. Both have shown me again and again that the body holds wisdom about what we need, and that healing unfolds most naturally when we meet ourselves with gentleness.
What I love most about this work is witnessing the moment someone begins to treat themselves with kindness, sometimes for the first time. I feel honored to accompany people as they discover a more positive relationship with themselves and a clearer sense of who they are becoming.
If you are curious about working together, I invite you to reach out. A brief conversation is often the easiest way to see if we are a good fit.
