WHO WE ARE
My name is Bridget Sakowski (she/her) and I am a Maine-based psychotherapist providing therapy for individual adults. I will guide, support, and empower you through an exploration process that will allow you to grow and change. I want to help you build the life you want regardless of any challenges you might encounter.
Particularly, I enjoy working with folks who are navigating sexuality, anxiety, depression, life transitions, and their relationship to care work. I am currently in training for AASECT Sex Therapy Certification.
our THERAPY METHOD
-
HOLISTIC
We will utilize a variety of therapeutic approaches based on what works best for you. There is no one right technique for everyone.
-
NARRATIVE
We will center our work in a collaborative and non-pathologizing approach that centers you as the expert of your own life as well as views problems as separate from people.
-
SYSTEMS-ORIENTED
We will acknowledge the ways in which the systems around us, such as school, work, and politics, impact what brings you into therapy and the challenges you face.
-
our Therapeutic Approach
Grounded in a trauma-informed, our work together will recognize the impact of systems on overall wellbeing. Bridget will support you in navigating your world and identifying your preferred way of living. After working to address the root causes of some of the challenges you face, we will process your lived experiences while identifying changes that will help you thrive. This trauma-informed approach will recognize the fact that we all carry our past traumas and have the strengths to navigate it with support.
