Welcome! Life can often feel challenging - I strive to help restore hope for adults, children, and adolescents who may be going through a difficult time. Parenting a child or adolescent who is struggling can feel especially overwhelming and exhausting. Does your child or teen struggle with behavioral or academic challenges? Or maybe you are concerned they are showing signs of depressed mood, anxiety, increased irritability, or difficulties paying attention and staying organized. Parenting is one of the most important things that we will do in our lives, yet much of the information available to parents is conflicting or confusing.

Counseling can help people discover new perspectives on life situations and learn healthy ways to handle them. Many people feel anxiety or stress because they have not had the opportunity to learn coping skills to manage with certain life transitions and situations. These situations may include fertility issues, sexual issues, parenting, adoption, marriage, divorce, blended families, career changes or other life transitions. Learning to more effectively manage daily life may increase personal satisfaction, relationship satisfaction, parenting skills, job effectiveness, increase self-awareness, reduce stress and improve emotional and physical well-being.

I took a 4 year break from practicing psychology to become a full-time middle school math teacher to help meet this mental health crisis among local youth.

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.
