Whether you’re embarking upon the journey of therapy for the first time or picking-up again, you are invited to become more and more of who you truly are through the therapeutic process.

Disconnected, stuck, unmotivated, or deeply pained teens improve with therapy. If your teen is glued to their phone, failing school, has experienced a traumatic event, suicide attempt, is self-harming, abusing drugs, or has parents going through a divorce - we've seen it all. The teen experience is tough! At Antelope Recovery, we understand that not all teens want to go to therapy, but they know that what they're currently doing isn't working, and they want to feel better. We also specialize in helping teens who have tried other types of help, such as 1:1 therapy or medication but have not experienced significant improvement.

As your therapist, my goal is to help you unearth what’s keeping you silenced, (re)connect to your inner wisdom, and forge a new path with more meaning, joy, and adventure. I believe in your unique wisdom and the aliveness that comes from its expression. Folks who come to me are untangling the impact of emotional and psychological abuse, struggling with maternal/parental wellness, or in need of care around career, identity, depression, anxiety, and more. People are often struggling with all that comes with early parenthood, boundaries, identity, toxic relationships, people pleasing, perfectionism, self-esteem, and coping skills.

As a queer woman, I believe the best therapy is informed by internal, interpersonal, cultural, and social justice perspectives.
Congratulations for taking a step on your healing path! I look forward to walking with you in a collaborative process rooted in deep compassion, curiosity, and radical acceptance of what is present and what is possible. Our work together will be integrative and grounded in somatic psychotherapy, meaning we will continually invite the body forward through felt sensation, breath, and movement in addition to talk-based approaches. Step by step, you will gain greater access to your unique strengths and intrinsic wisdom as you uncover and work through obstacles to your growth and healing.

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.
