Are you feeling lost, disconnected, or unsure of where to turn? Perhaps you've been carrying the weight of past experiences that you can’t shake off, leaving you feeling stuck and exhausted. You find yourself constantly busy, with no time to focus on your own needs, and the things that once brought you joy or a sense of identity seem out of reach. Connecting with friends feels difficult, and anxiety only deepens the sense of isolation. You may not even recognize yourself anymore and wonder if life can truly look or feel any different.

Welcome to my page! My journey to Spiritual Psychotherapy and Soul Psychology started 30+ years ago during the extensive study of Yoga, Meditation, and Eastern Philosophy. This led me to become a yoga and meditation teacher to assist others to find their way back 'home' to wholeness of body, mind, and spirit. Eventually I was led to a study of western psychological approaches. I am confident that my experience in the fields of spirituality, yoga and psychology has given me a unique opportunity to be able to access broader layers of human psyche to facilitate deeper levels of healing, soul integration, and self-empowerment.

Female Counsellors

Does it matter what gender my therapist is?

In general, this is not an important factor, as there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or ingrained beliefs about how people of different genders think and behave. Exploring the roots of such preferences and considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender truly matters to them.

Should I see a female therapist?

Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist, either because they believe that a woman will be able to relate to their specific challenges (for example, sexism in the workplace) or because they imagine feeling more comfortable disclosing sensitive information to a woman. Such beliefs may not turn out to be accurate, however, and adhering too rigidly to a gender preference can at times hinder a client from finding the best therapeutic match.

Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?

Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists—both men and women—may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.

How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?

It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
