Experiencing a breakup, divorce, grief, traumatic experiences, military lifestyle challenges, parenting/co-parenting struggles, and women's issues can make one feel anxious, sad, overwhelmed, angry, stressed, hopeless, or alone. Life's challenges do not only impact us individually, but can also have an impact on those we love most, which may need outside support to heal and grow from. Whether you are looking for individual counseling for yourself or relationship/marriage counseling for you and your partner, we can work together to identify the barriers and support you in living a more fulfilling life.

My specialties include: trauma-informed therapy, women's issues and tweens & teens in transition.
Women, despite being the foundation of our society (I am a little biased, of course), are often given too much stress to manage effectively. We have to be employees, mothers, wives, friends, daughters and sisters, just to name a few roles that we play. When there is friction or "conflict" in any one of these roles, life can get complicated. I am passionate about supporting women in our many phases of life. I also serve the Latino (Spanish-speaking) community in a culturally sensitive manner.

Welcome to a space tailored specifically for women navigating life's challenges. As a therapist specializing in women's issues, I understand the unique challenges that come with significant life changes such as caregiving, menopause, empty nesting, grief, and issues with interpersonal relationships. Women often juggle multiple roles and responsibilities, which can lead to feelings of overwhelm, stress, or a sense of losing oneself amidst the demands of daily life.

Life gets busy; it sometimes feels too busy to stop and take a moment. When this happens, feelings of overwhelm, worry, and burnout occurs. I strive to help you take ownership and find strength when feeling powerless. I work with teens, college students, and adult women in areas of confidence, life transitions, and perinatal/women's issues. Loving who you are is not a linear process. I want to help you feel comfortable in your skin so you can navigate life feeling proud, confident, and worthy of meaningful connections.

I have done a lot of trauma work, and have extensive experience working with sexual trauma (both childhood and adult), PTSD, grief and loss, depression (to include PPD), anxiety, parenting, self esteem and women's issues.
"Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars" (Khalil Gibran). While suffering is part of life, and moving on always a possibility, figuring out how to reorganize the pieces of our puzzle after trauma has occurred can be a daunting task. Too often, we allow our past experiences and our scars to define who we are, and we get stuck in a dark place, incapable of taking that first step. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to walk that path with you.

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.
