This is a Safe Space for All.

Welcome—I’m glad you’re here.

With over 40 years of clinical experience, I provide a dedicated and inclusive space for adults and couples across the State of Maine. My name is Dr. Crystal Rose Garrison, and I offer seasoned expertise through online telehealth sessions designed to meet you exactly where you are, whether you are navigating complex trauma, life transitions, or seeking deeper personal growth.

As a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with two doctorates—one in Counseling Psychology and a second in Clinical Psychoanalysis—I bring a deep, specialized toolkit to our sessions. I am a trained psychoanalytic psychotherapist and a psychoanalyst-in-training, currently working toward a clinical certificate in modern psychoanalysis.

Healing Beyond the Surface
I truly love this work because I believe in the power of deep, lasting change. Many of my patients come to me feeling “stuck” in patterns that no longer serve them. Regardless of your background or identity, I believe that what we often call “symptoms” are actually survival strategies we developed to manage trauma and heartache as we try to heal from the past and navigate a world that isn’t always kind.

My goal is to help you move beyond just “managing” symptoms and toward true resolution. Modern psychoanalysis is an insight-oriented, evidence-based approach that addresses the root causes of distress. Rather than a “band-aid” approach, we work together to resolve the underlying issues, heal the pain of the past, and help you move forward with clarity.

A Space for Your Authentic Self

A Dedicated, Inclusive Space for Growth and Healing. Whether you are navigating a transition, exploring your identity, managing life’s everyday challenges, or seeking deeper personal growth, you will find a safe and respectful environment here that honors your unique journey without question.

We are complex human beings, and growth takes time. In our sessions, you will be heard, validated, and encouraged to explore your truths—even those you may not yet be aware of. While we can’t change hurtful memories, we can absolutely resolve the pain and “weight” they carry.

My Practice is Open to All
My caseload is wonderfully diverse and represents all walks of life. I also provide specialized care for medical and mental health professionals. As a nationally certified clinical supervisor, I provide consultation for fellow clinicians at the doctoral and master’s levels.

I specialize in supporting you through:

  • Anxiety, Depression, & Complex Grief
  • Couples and Relationships
  • Clinical Superversion
  • LGBTQ
  • Trauma, PTSD, & Unresolved Childhood Issues
  • Treatment for Medical and Mental Health Providers

When you’re ready to begin this chapter, I invite you to reach out. I offer a free 15-minute video consultation to see how we can work together.
