It is a privilege to introduce myself to you. I am a Licensed Psychologist located in Portsmouth, New Hampshire with more than 30 years of clinical experience in private practice, outpatient clinic and inpatient settings. My clinical interests include mind-body medicine, health psychology, and optimal performance. I would describe myself as compassionate and thoughtful, with a good sense of humor.

I offer individual therapy, couple’s counseling, and family therapy. I treat individual adults struggling with acute and chronic stress, grief, relationship problems, adjustment to life stressors, anxiety, depression, ADHD, and trauma.


I received my doctorate at Boston College and completed an Externship in Behavioral Medicine. I also held an academic appointment as Clinical Instructor in Psychology at Harvard Medical School for ten years. During that time, I served on the faculty of the Couples and Family Clinic in the Department of Psychiatry at the Cambridge Health Alliance. I am a member of the American Psychological Association and the New Hampshire Psychological Association. I am certified by the National Register of Health Service Providers in Psychology.

I welcome you to contact me directly at (603) 502-1217 or anemetz@oldeportcounseling.com. I look forward to working with you.
