Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
My name is Christina McGuire and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Maine with 15 years of experience providing mental health therapy to young adults, individual and families. I am a graduate of the University of Southern Maine where I earned my Master’s in Social Work and I am also a graduate of the University of New Hampshire where I studied the practice and administration of Outdoor Education and Experiential Learning. Within the past 5 years I have become licensed to provide support to people struggling with Substance Use issues. Much of my training has come from working and teaching in both the outdoors and within traditional settings like schools, health centers and people’s homes where I have therapeutically supported people to “learn from their experience”.
I believe that our lives provide us with a wide variety of experiences that impact us. Depending on our relationships, resources, personal health /wellness and resiliency, the stressors that we face can become thought provoking to overwhelming and life changing situations that can require a great deal of support to work through and learn from.
I became a mental health therapist because I believe that being with others through life changing experiences and helping them to learn the skills to improve their ability to cope is a privilege. My therapeutic style is laid back, person centered, strengths based, relational and goal oriented. I believe that through working together, individuals can make great changes in the quality of their lives and the lives of others.

For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life changes, online therapy has been shown to be as effective as traditional in-person sessions.
One of the main benefits is flexibility – clients can connect in the way that feels most comfortable, choosing video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This variety of options makes it easier to schedule and maintain regular care.
These services are provided by licensed professionals, and if a different therapeutic fit is desired, it is possible to switch therapists. Online therapy can be a practical, accessible option for many people seeking support for everyday mental health concerns.
