I work with individuals and couples across all stages of life—including young adults, premarital couples, parents, and empty nesters. My work often centers on setting realistic goals, shifting unhelpful thought patterns, and making small, meaningful changes that lead to lasting improvement in mood, relationships, and day-to-day life. I’m passionate about helping people get “unstuck” by rediscovering the strength and resilience already within them.

I strongly believe in the importance of the family. Each individual is important in the family system and brings a different dynamic into it. I enjoy working with individuals and families: both parent/child and sibling relationships. While I am most passionate about working with individuals suffering with trauma/PTSD, anxiety/depression, the family relationship needs support as well, particularly with challenging children. Sometimes an outside perspective can help us see things differently. Challenges in a family are guaranteed, but with some encouragement and support, we can become stronger through those challenges.

When your body or mind feels like it’s working against you, even the simplest parts of life can start to feel overwhelming. I specialize in working with adults and seniors who are navigating the challenges of life transitions such as divorce,relationships, grief, chronic illness, medical trauma, OCD, anxiety and depression. These experiences often bring feelings of uncertainty, fear, or isolation, and it’s natural to want a space where you don’t have to face them alone. In our work together, you’ll find a safe and supportive space where your story is heard and your struggles are validated.

I have over thirty years of experience working with children, families, and adults. I am a mother of four, a former first grade teacher, and a licensed professional counselor. Everyone goes through challenges in life and at times you just need someone to listen and encourage you in your journey. My goal for every client is to feel comfortable, safe, and most importantly heard and understood. It takes courage, humility, and love (either love for yourself or your child), to pick up the phone and decide to begin therapy. I recognize that and honor your decision.

Female Therapists

Does it matter what gender my therapist is?

In general, 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 because they feel more comfortable with a therapist of their own gender due to shared life experiences or perspectives. Considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender may matter or improve their therapeutic experience. The most important consideration is that a client is able to build a trusting relationship with their therapist.

Should I see a female therapist?

Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist. For women, this could be because they believe that they will be able to better connect with a woman, and that a female therapist will be able to relate to their specific challenges and personal issues. It may be particularly beneficial for women to see a female therapist, for example, for gender-specific issues, such as sexism in the workplace, relationship issues, and gender roles. The most important factor in therapy is the client-therapist connection, and a therapist's gender as well as many other factors may play an important role in this.

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 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.
