Angelica McAdam-King, LCSW, LICSW — Therapist in Maine

Hi there, I'm Angelica!

My approach is rooted in trauma-informed care, recognizing the impact of past experiences on present challenges. My goal is to offer a safe, supportive space where you can show up just as you are. We’ll move at a pace that feels right for you in order to build an environment that fosters safety, empowerment, and sustainable emotional well-being.

My focus

My client focus includes those who have experienced trauma, grief or loss, anxiety, depression, and/or addiction and are seeking a safe space to process, heal, and move forward. Additionally, I support couples in working through relationship challenges, improving communication, and building stronger, more connected partnerships.

My approach

My counseling approach is person-centered and trauma-informed, with a focus on a compassionate, collaborative style to support meaningful and lasting change. Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Trauma-Focused cognitive behavioral therapy, EMDR, Internal Family Systems, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy are some evidence-based interventions I use.

My communication style

I aim to be real, transparent, and easy to talk to. I’ll meet you with empathy and without judgment, while also being direct when it’s helpful for your growth. My goal is for our conversations to feel empowering, honest, and—when appropriate—include a sense of humor.

My journey to mental healthcare

I didn’t choose this work by accident—it grew from a strong pull toward helping people feel understood and supported during difficult times. Over the years, that’s turned into a career focused on creating safe, meaningful spaces for healing and growth.

My goals for you

My goal is to help you feel safe in your own mind and body while building the tools and confidence to move forward. I support healing at your pace while helping you make meaningful, lasting changes. Together, we’ll build awareness, shift patterns, and strengthen your ability to navigate challenges with confidence and resilience.

Our first session

The first session is a conversation, not an interrogation. We’ll go at your pace as we begin to explore what’s bringing you in, with a focus on creating a sense of safety and trust. My goal is to meet you where you are and help you feel comfortable and supported from the start.
