I AM accepting new clients. I am incredibly proud of you for taking the step to find a therapist. Finding the “right fit,” is imperative and I’d like to share a bit about my style so you can decide what is best for you. I view therapy as a collaborative process between two humans. I always offer ample respect, dignity and compassion to everyone I encounter. I am a strengths based clinician, which means I will focus on positives when helping you identify and overcome difficulties in your life. Life happens in ways we often cannot control, but I believe it’s all about how we respond that counts most.

Are you overwhelmed and exhausted? Have you lost interest in people and activities you used to enjoy? Feeling sad or anxious? Is it difficult to think clearly, make decisions, feel positive about the future? For many stress, depression and panic have become a way of life. Somehow we end up on autopilot, disappointed, nervous and disillusioned, feeling like we have no choice. Work can become more and more demanding but less and less rewarding. Relationships can become strained or unfulfilling. We can feel helpless and hopeless. You are not the only one!

Are you exhausted from carrying around the weight of anxiety? Does the struggle to get through your day with depression make you want to stay in bed? Are you overwhelmed by society's pressure to stay positive and try harder? Mental health issues can make even the most minor tasks seem impossible. You can’t get away from the swirling negative thoughts in your mind long enough to accomplish your goals. You want to engage with life and be present with your loved ones, but it all seems like too much effort. You need someone to guide you out of the dark and help you find your path to wellness.

—accepting new clients as of 4/6— You know you want change but feel unsure where to start. Facing challenging life transitions can be frustrating and confusing. You may feel that your life is not what you expected it to be. Talking it through with friends and family still leaves you feeling lost.

Why is it that only 41% of people with mental health needs have sought out services within the past year? Perhaps there was a lack of connection between the client and the therapist. I hope to be that warm connection to a therapist that you have been seeking. Welcome! Congratulations on taking that first step towards personal growth and transformation - let's take the next part of your journey together. I can help you tackle those issues that have been keeping you stuck, to help you to move toward clarity, just by helping you discover the internal resources that you already possess.

Struggling with Anxiety, Depression, feelings of shame or inadequacy? Maybe you have difficulty connecting to others, creating healthy boundaries, or trusting after a relationship ended painfully. Does fear of failure keep you from trying something you've desired or from reaching your full potential. I've helped many clients experiencing these difficulties, get "unstuck", heal, and move forward with more peace, joy, confidence, and purpose. Above all, I believe the therapeutic relationship is the most important ingredient in successful therapy and that each unique person engaging in the process is deserving of attuned connection.

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.
