June Keniston , LCPC

June Keniston is an LCPC (Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor) based in Maine with 12 years of experience in the mental health field. She practices from a holistic, person-centered, humanistic, and strengths-based perspective, positioning herself as a supportive guide who helps people navigate difficult transitions and the day-to-day challenges of life.

June works collaboratively to identify the patterns or obstacles that may be keeping someone stuck and then crafts a practical plan to build a bridge toward improved well-being. She has a particular passion for supporting people living with chronic invisible illnesses such as Lyme disease, fibromyalgia, arthritis, and chronic fatigue, and she often addresses co-occurring concerns like anxiety and depression.

Her clinical approach draws on Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing, selecting methods that fit each person’s needs and goals. June provides care for a broad range of issues including stress, grief, career and relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, parenting and family concerns, sleep problems, addictions, mood disorders, and compassion fatigue.

Throughout her work she emphasizes collaboration, practical skills, and steady support, tailoring interventions to individual strengths and life circumstances while helping people move toward meaningful change.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

June often draws on Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to guide her work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building a supportive, nonjudgmental relationship that helps people explore their values and strengths so they can find their own solutions. CBT offers practical tools to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns.

She also integrates Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills when emotional regulation, distress tolerance, or interpersonal effectiveness are priorities. DBT provides concrete strategies to manage intense emotions and improve relationships while balancing acceptance and change.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. June collaborates with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences and then tailors a plan that feels like the best fit. That collaborative planning helps ensure the methods used are practical and relevant to daily life.

Online therapy with June makes it easier to access licensed professionals from home or other convenient locations. Video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging provide flexibility for people with busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, or chronic health challenges, allowing steady continuity of care and skills practice between sessions.
