Online Therapy for High-Functioning Anxiety and Anxious Attachment in Maine & New Hampshire

Find your way back to yourself.

“Why can’t I just get over this already?”

If you’ve thought that more times than you can count, keep reading.

Maybe you’ve searched “why am I like this” or “how to stop overthinking.” You’re tired of overanalyzing every text and conversation. Tired of wondering if someone’s upset with you. Tired of feeling responsible for everyone else’s happiness.

From the outside, your life probably looks fine. You show up, you get things done, and people count on you. That’s what high-functioning anxiety looks like. It doesn’t look like struggling. It looks like succeeding while a constant hum of worry runs underneath: replaying conversations, anticipating problems, trying to read people before they react. Even when nothing’s wrong, it’s hard to relax.

What I do:
I help capable, high-achieving adults understand and change the patterns underneath their anxiety, so they can stop white-knuckling their way through life and start trusting themselves. Together we’ll work on emotional overwhelm, boundaries without guilt, and people-pleasing, using evidence-based approaches like CBT, DBT skills, and EMDR, along with mindfulness and body-based practices. The goal isn’t to never feel triggered. It’s to stop carrying it alone.

What brings you here?

  • Anxiety and overthinking: high-functioning anxiety, perfectionism, constant worry → Anxiety therapy
  • Relationship patterns: anxious attachment, people-pleasing, fear of being too much → Attachment-focused therapy
  • Past experiences that still weigh on you: trauma and EMDR → Trauma therapy and EMDR
  • Pregnancy, postpartum, and new parenthood: perinatal mental health and matrescence → Perinatal therapy
  • Big changes: career, relationships, loss, moving, new roles → Life transitions
  • Alcohol and drug use: outpatient counseling and court-required LADC evaluations (NH) → Addiction counseling

A little about me:
Hi, I’m Beth, LCPC, LCMHC, MLADC, PMH-C, CCTP-I. I’m a licensed counselor in Maine and New Hampshire with specialized training in trauma, EMDR, and perinatal mental health. I’m warm, I’m honest, and I’m a real person, which I think matters in this work. Gerty Mae-hem, my corgi, will probably make a cameo in our sessions, and I promise she’s very supportive.

You don’t need to be stronger. You need support.
