Female Therapists in Buena Vista, CO
The journey of life is a complex and challenging one to navigate. We are not given a roadmap to help us find our way. And there are times when having someone journey alongside us, as we examine ourselves and aspects of our life, is of great benefit. I imagine that is what you are seeking and applaud you on taking this brave first step. My belief is that you are closer to navigating the complexity of YOU than you may think. It might be challenging to see in the moment due to challenges or symptoms you may be experiencing. You already possess everything you need to heal from the past and navigate the present.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, confused, anxious, sad, alone, lost, irritable, emotionally "stuck" or just plain exhausted? Perhaps you have recent or past trauma and have painful memories that seem to have a hold on you, and prevent you from being able to be fully present in your life. Maybe you are struggling with developing or maintaining healthy relationships, or are feeling like your life is unraveling, unfulfilling or unbalanced, with little to no time to take care of yourself. If you are experiencing any of the above, or are seeking self-growth, self-understanding, healing, or positive change, please reach out to me today.

Unresolved trauma is often at the root of anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. It can dysregulate our nervous systems and keep us stuck in 'survival mode.' The same coping strategies that once protected us are now disrupting our relationships and everyday lives. The good news is that our minds and bodies want to heal. We just need to learn how to access the deeper parts and integrate them in a more adaptive way so that the past isn't always in the driver's seat. It is said “what you resist, persists”. I believe the practice of coming to know ourselves fully can be very powerful when we learn to trust our needs and intuitions.

If you are struggling with people-pleasing, codependency, or challenging family dynamics, you are in the right place. With people-pleasing or codependency, you feel stuck in a negative cycle of relating to people that you can't seem to get out of. If you’re experiencing difficult family relationships, you vacillate between feeling close to them and feeling like you can't get far enough from them. Whichever of these difficult issues you are facing, I can help.

I am passionate about helping people work through major life transitions, which can so often be accompanied by complicated feelings, including grief and pain. As we move along each of our journeys, some moments need more time to process and be witnessed. Becoming a parent, losing a loved one, moving, loss/change of a job. I want to help honor these changes by holding space with patience and a compassionate understanding.

As people, we are innately wired for healing and have a rich capacity to adapt to whatever life throws at us. While this is a beautiful gift, it can also get us stuck when we adapt to situations that are harmful to us. Things like early relationship wounds, trauma, and chronic stress can trap us in patterns that interrupt our connection with ourselves, with others, and with the world around us. If you're looking to get untangled, I would love to support you in re-connecting with your innate goodness and ability to heal.

I like people who are willing to be open and give it a try. This may look like an individual looking to face changes, or maybe a couple looking to learn how to communicate or find that lost spark. In other cases, this may involve business partners or family members learning how to trust one another. I like to work with people who are willing to do the work.

Your life just isn’t what you expected or going how you want right now. You’re doing so much and it’s still not enough. You should be more accomplished and feel more fulfilled, but instead, you’re struggling to find your place in the world. It seems like other people don’t get it, and you find yourself in repeated conflict with the ones you care about most. You can imagine how it could be different sometimes, but your self-critic is working on overdrive to stir up doubt and worries about the future. And you’re tired of it... probably exhausted.

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.
