Same bed, worlds apart. Maybe you’re in even sleeping in separate rooms at this point. How can you spend your days side by side with a person and still feel so alone? You used to be allies, you felt understood. Easily understood. Now you’re in a place where you’ve got to stand on your head with your explanations and plenty of times, you wish you’d just saved your breath. Maybe you have no idea when things shifted, maybe you know precisely. One thing you know for certain, is that you want out. Not necessarily out of your marriage, but out of the sad, frustrating place that you’re stuck in. But without a path, it’s just not happening.

Unfortunately, I am not currently accepting new clients. Online therapy for women who are just trying to keep it all together. You've spent for as long as you can remember trying to balance it all, but it’s exhausting and you don’t think you can do it anymore. As far as anyone can tell, you’ve got a great life. You’re accomplished, driven, and dependable. But on the inside, you never feel good enough and the voice in your head is quick to remind you of all the ways you’re falling short. You're tired of giving so much to everyone else while you continue to come last on your list. Not anymore. It's time for a change.

What in your life is not working for you? What if you could identify it, explore it? change it? How would you be leading the life you seek? There is a gross misconception that therapy is for people who are chronically mentally ill. That is not my philosophy. I believe that anyone can be metaphorically driving their car on the road of life and end up off the road, maybe in a ditch. I believe in partnering with my clients to understand the struggle, whether a present challenge, an unresolved past issue, or facing an uncertain future. Together, we can put the car back on the road, or find an entirely new road to follow.

Sound familiar? You're in or approaching the mid-years of life, but the term middle-aged makes you cringe. Your life seems to make a perfect social media post, but you feel like an imposter every time you hit send. You have all you ever wanted but feel like something is missing. You worry about caring for your parents or are grieving for the life you never had with them. Pain, sleep problems, and other changes abound, but it's written off as “part of aging.” I’m here to empower you to move beyond these dismissive diagnoses and life concerns and to change your experience with yourself, with others, and with your health and wellbeing.

Women's Issues Therapists
How do you encourage a woman to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual may be suffering, and what effects it has on them, should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
How can women prepare for therapy?
Women can prepare for therapy by being willing to talk about their past experiences and their private thoughts. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. Between sessions, it can be useful to write down notes about their reaction to a given event or how they felt at a particular time.
How long does therapy for women’s issues often last?
As with any type of therapy, sessions depend on the individual and the challenges they face. Therapy types like Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Prolonged exposure therapy (PET), and Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. In some cases, such as for women with eating disorders, residential treatment may be recommended for an individual who is judged to be at high risk of self-harm. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realized.
How can women overcome stigma around specific challenges in order to seek therapy?
Women dealing with domestic abuse, sexual assault, eating disorders, and any other number of troubles may feel a stigma around seeking help. It’s important to remember that these issues are not uncommon and there is no shame in getting help for them. Therapy is confidential, and women can talk about their experiences without fear of judgment. Seeking therapy can be a courageous and liberating act, and an important step toward healing and recovery.
