Are you noticing that people pleasing, codependency and anxiety are getting in your way? If you'd like to show up more compassionately for yourself and interact with the world from a place of authenticity, I invite you to begin a new knowing of you! I believe in the transformative power of compassion, attunement, and repair. When Another holds space for implicit memory and emotional states held in our nervous systems, we access and heal relational wounds that created "others- focused" patterns. We gain respect for our needs and boundaries. Valuing curiosity over judgement, we repair our felt sense of safety, agency, and sturdiness.

Hello! I am a licensed therapist with 6+ years of experience working with mental health and addiction recovery for older teens and adults. I believe that healing past wounds creates new foundations for growth. I prioritize progress over perfection and I believe direction is more important than speed. If you find that you have a difficult time with perfectionism, control, verbalizing your emotions or needs, vulnerability, relaxation without guilt, high expectations/pressure, and making connections with other people then I might be a good fit to walk with you through your journey.

I believe that everyone has the power to heal. Experiences of our past negatively showing up in our present, difficult relationships, loss, and unexpected/unwanted change are painful but not rare. We are left to find ourselves again, rebuild, grieve, and find a new way to live. Through healing and connection, we are able to know deep within that we will be o.k. We can find peace and power within ourselves. We can create a new story. I would be honored to help.

Have you thought of what life would be life without the chatter in your mind, without questioning the future and facing hurdles daily due to the consistent barriers within self? Therapy can be an intimidating journey, but a rewarding one. My focus is ADHD, body image as well trauma, primarily the lens of intergenerational trauma, however, there are many parallels to both these areas of focus. I also work with couples to achieve deeper levels of intimacy.

Female Therapists

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.
