Maryellen Newman
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
In our work together I would take a blended therapeutic approach and individualize treatment based on your personal needs, strengths, and goals. My professional journey is deeply rooted in a commitment to fostering healing and resilience in the lives of individuals facing emotional challenges. I have worked for over 15 years with children, adolescents, teens, and adults who feel overwhelmed with worry, stress, and trauma. Their progress and bravery has inspired me to narrow my focus to deliver the highest quality care with empathy and thoughtfulness. My focus has been dialectical behavior therapy, treating anxiety with cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness, helping clients find a life worth living beyond their depression, combining behavioral interventions with cognitive strategies, and helping clients take control of their lives by actively making changes. Our past experiences contribute to who we are today but do not have to control our future.

Stay rooted deeply in the present moment, allowing your intuition, knowing, and being-ness to shine! These 1.5 hr. Expressive Arts Therapy sessions offer an eclectic approach to therapy.

Dr. Amanda Roberts
Psychologist, PhD Clinical Psychology, Masters in Marriage Family Therapy
Dr. Roberts’ approach is one of warmth, compassion and respect for the strengths within the person with the firm conviction that effective therapy involves a collaborative partnership informed by the patient’s innate wisdom and resilience. She is passionate about her work and regards it as a divine calling. It is the quality of the therapeutic relationship based on a foundation of trust, safety and a caring connection that provides the most curative element in treatment. She is known for her creativity, passion, fearlessness, easy humor and deep commitment to the welfare of her patients. If you are a patient, your work with her will be solution focused, equip you with tools for living your life more joyfully and freely and will involve a practical problem-solving approach. If you are a consultee she will nurture, support and patiently guide you to become the best clinician that you are capable of becoming.
Dr Roberts is a general aviation private pilot, owns her own aeroplane and is an intrepid adventurer. "Do one thing each day that frightens you" is one of her personal standards. She is no stranger to fear, having been a skydiver, scuba diver, rock climber and the leader of a community disaster team in Massachusetts. Dr Roberts is an avid hiker and creative writer and holds a deep reverence for nature and its beauty. She is a dedicated meditator and fitness enthusiast who regards it as a sacred duty to care diligently for her own health in order to give her best to those she serves.

Maria Elizabeth LeBlanc
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, M.Ed MSW LICSW
A guiding principle in my work is the belief that the quality of the therapeutic relationship is of the utmost importance. Neuroscientific literature supports the curative powers of deep empathic attunement (limbic resonance), and the brain/body's ability to heal. As such, in addition to attending to you with the same level of respectful presence that I would expect in a therapist, I use both cognitive/emotional and mind/body tools to assist you in your healing. I am certified in both Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP) as well as a certified +HeartMath practitioner. I think you will find me warm, genuine, empathic, and knowledgeable.

Sarah Nehdi, LMHC
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Sometimes, we all need a little perspective. When you are overwhelmed with pain, sadness, and/or anxiety, it can feel impossible to move forward. Having someone in your corner who can help motivate and support you throughout the change process can make all the difference.
I know taking the first step to find a therapist isn't easy and I don't take that show of strength lightly! With my (attempted) sense of humor and respect for my clients, I hope to create a warm place for you to accept yourself for exactly who you are right now, and then find ways to change your life that makes it more reflective of your best self.
