Therapeutic Services

  • Records reviews, clinical assessments and diagnostic evaluations are completed during regular therapy sessions or offered as an independent service.

  • Sessions are scheduled at regular intervals with the initial frequency determined mutually during the initial intake appointment.

  • Clinical Supervision is available to individuals seeking supervision for licensure required hours.

  • Although in-person treatment is most effective it is not always possible. Teletherapy is available utilizing a HIPAA compliant platform.

  • Referrals are provided when situations arise where therapeutic “fit” is not appropriate for one or both parties, assessments are required outside the scope of the provider’s practice or other situations that may require an external referral.

Meet the Therapist

Heather Gosselin LCSW - She/Her

Welcome! I’m Heather Gosselin, a licensed clinical social worker in Maine, and I’m here to support you on your journey toward healing and growth. With a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and a Master’s degree in Social Work, I have nearly two and a half decades of experience working with individuals, families, and children.

My passion lies in helping those who have faced complex trauma, substance use challenges, grief and loss, divorce, aging, domestic violence, and the pressures of significant life changes. I understand that seeking help can be a vulnerable step, and I strive to create a warm, welcoming space for everyone.

In my role as a leader at a local non-profit, I embrace diversity and am committed to providing care that is sensitive to the unique needs of marginalized populations. I’m excited to extend my services to the greater Bangor community, focusing on supporting individuals aged 15 and older. Together, we can navigate the challenges you face and work toward a brighter, more fulfilling future.
