MENTAL HEALTH

CALEB ROBERTSON (HE/HIM),
COUNSELOR IN TRAINING

Are you feeling like you're not functioning effectively? Are you hyperfocused on a problem within or around you? Are you stressed, stuck, overwhelmed, or unable to act?

I believe you have a beautiful healing journey ahead of you where you find true rest along the way! It requires great courage to even take the steps you've taken to read this. Not everyone does it. Good news! You don't need to take further steps alone.

Together, we'll build support systems for you to use, learn about the wondrously tricky brain, and explore where you've been, where you are, and where you want to be.

You can expect me to be a present, gentle, curious, kind, and appropriately humorous listener and guide as we venture toward your health and hope together!

Whether you're experiencing the rocky waters of life or just hoping to grow as a person, I'm excited to be a part of your journey.

I work with adults as well as adolescents aged 10+.

I have a decade of experience supporting students aged 10 - 18 in their navigation of life as a young person.

MY APPROACH TO THERAPY

ABOUT ME

I was born and raised in Southern Maine and am proud to remain a member of the Maine community. From Pre-K through all of Highschool, I was homeschooled; eventually attending the University of Southern Maine to get my bachelor's degree in Leadership & Organizational studies with a minor in Computer Science. — My young adulthood has been quite dynamic. It’s included: • The surfacing of and healing around an anxiety disorder (GAD). • Taking a wonderous, therapeutic journey away from self-hatred (greatly spurred on by speech disfluency/stuttering) and toward self-love and -compassion. • A profound spiritual transformation in which I’ve moved away from religious certainty to cosmic curiosity. — My personal time is filled with: • Spending time and traveling with my dear family and friends. • Studying philosophy and theology. • Playing TableTop Roleplaying Games. • Reading fantasy and sci-fi. • Paddleboarding when Maine weather allows! — I entered USM's Clinicical Mental Health Counseling program in 2022 and fell in love with the counseling profession. I am so grateful to be doing this work and I find great purpose in supporting people in their journey toward rest.

WHAT IS COUNSELING?

Mental health counseling (or "therapy") directly addresses the difficulties of life (within and around us or our relationship) via regular sessions with a liscenced professional focused on exploring feelings, thoughts, and behaviors to promote self-awareness, coping strategies, and personal growth. For many reasons pertainng to the health and privacy of both the counselor and client(s), this relationship should exist exclusively in the professional realm.

CLIENT FOCUS & BOUNDARIES

I serve adolescents (10+) and adults from all walks and ways of life.

Due to ethical and professional boundaries, I cannot take on clients that I regularly interact with outside of the counseling relationship nor can I take on clients who I share a close mutual relationship with (e.g. my best friend's brother, my coworker's mother, etc.)

MY EDUCATION

UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHERN MAINE

MASTERS OF SCIENCE,
CLINICAL MENTAL HEALTH COUNSELING

Practitioners of clinical mental health counseling provide guidance for clients who are experiencing developmental life stress and acute transitional problems, as well as clients interested in enriching their present life through the establishment of greater coherence and well-being.

In USM's Clinical Mental Health concentration, students establish their professional identity through the development of facilitative and interpersonal communication skills. We emphasize a holistic approach with a focus on wellness and prevention, as well as self-care of the counselor.

The cirriculum explores the roles, functions, skills, and professional identity of clinical mental health counselors. It integrates the historical, philosophical, societal, cultural, economic, and political dimensions of the mental health and human service system. And it focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of mental and emotional disorders, psychological trauma, and the general principles and practices for the promotion of optimal mental health.
