Hello
I'm Dr. Bridget Tremblay, a Doctor of Psychology and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist practicing in Maine and California.
I believe that meaningful change begins with feeling seen, understood, and accepted. My hope is to offer a space where you can slow down, become curious about your experiences, and explore the patterns that have shaped your life and relationships.
Therapy isn't about having all the answers—it's about creating room for deeper understanding, greater self-compassion, and lasting change. Together, we'll move at a pace that feels right for you, honoring your story while discovering new ways of relating to yourself and others.
It is a privilege to do this work, and I strive to bring warmth, authenticity, curiosity, and respect to every session.
Therapeutic Approach:
My goal is to help individuals and couples navigate life's challenges in ways that foster healing, growth, and a more authentic connection to themselves and others. Rather than viewing struggles as something to simply overcome, I see them as opportunities to deepen self-understanding, build resilience, and create lasting change.
My therapeutic approach integrates Internal Family Systems (IFS), relational, and psychodynamic therapies.
Internal Family Systems (IFS) recognizes that we all have different parts of ourselves that have developed to protect us or carry emotional pain. Together, we explore these parts with curiosity and compassion, helping you access your core Self—a place of calm, clarity, confidence, and connection. As your relationship with your internal world shifts, so does your capacity for healing and growth.
Relational therapy emphasizes the healing power of the therapeutic relationship. I strive to create a collaborative, nonjudgmental space where you feel safe, understood, and supported as you explore new ways of relating to yourself and others.
Psychodynamic therapy helps uncover how early experiences, attachment patterns, and unconscious processes continue to influence present-day emotions, behaviors, and relationships. Bringing these patterns into awareness creates opportunities for meaningful and lasting change.
I also view each person within the context of the relationships and systems that shape their lives—including family, work, culture, and community. Together, we'll work toward greater self-awareness, stronger relationships, and a life that feels more grounded, connected, and authentic.
Graduate Education and Training
I graduated with my doctoral degree (Psy.D) in Clinical Psychology from The Chicago School of Professional Psychology. I completed my pre-doctoral and post-doctoral internship in a supervised private practice setting providing therapy to children, adolescents, adults, families and couples located in Burbank, California.
Prior to beginning my doctoral program, I received my Masters degree (M.S.) in Marriage and Family Therapy from California State University Northridge and my Bachelors degree (BA) in Personality Psychology from Suffolk University. I completed my pre and post master's graduate training in a supervised clinical setting providing evidence based floor-time therapy for children with diagnoses on the autistic spectrum, as well as provided parent education, family and individual psychotherapy. I provided trainings and workshops in communities to educate families, clinicians, and Regional Center employees on atypical and typical child development.
I later became published by ProQuest Dissertations & Theses (PQDT) Global database; Title: A Theory-Based Workshop: The Relationship Between Insecure Attachment and Non-Autistic Siblings.
