He brings four years of professional experience to his work and emphasizes a respectful, sensitive, and compassionate therapeutic stance. Garry explains therapeutic options in clear terms and collaborates with clients to help them pursue more meaningful, engaged living.
His practice also focuses on concerns related to ADHD, chronic pain, illness and disability, mood and panic disorders, social anxiety and phobia, life purpose, and challenges common to young adults.

Garry offers services in English and Portuguese and works with a variety of communication formats to fit different schedules and preferences. Clients in Maine seeking a therapist who integrates evidence-based methods and values-driven work may find his approach practical and goal-oriented while maintaining empathy and understanding for individual circumstances.
Integrating ACT and CBT for flexible online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to clarify what matters to them and to take committed action toward those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. It is often useful for stress, anxiety, life transitions, and building a more meaningful daily life.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors through practical skills and structured exercises. CBT can help with mood disorders, panic, social anxiety, and skills for coping with ADHD-related challenges.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and the therapist will work collaboratively to determine which methods best fit a person's needs, goals, and preferences. This collaborative process allows adjustments over time so treatment remains aligned with changing priorities.
Online therapy with this practice is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and to access care from different locations within Maine. These options provide flexibility for people who prefer real-time conversations or more text-based, ongoing support.
