Do you find yourself trying to make everyone around you happy but yourself? Do you try to intellectualize your way out of your feelings? Do you feel on edge or anxious most of the time? Our minds and bodies do a wonderful job of helping us survive traumatic experiences, but these survival techniques can also begin to impact our connection with ourselves, our relationships, our purpose, and much more. Through exploring past experiences, strengthening the mind-body connection, and continuing to be curious and compassionate towards self, we can begin to shift ourselves out of survival mode into a life we choose.

It can be scary to admit that something in your life isn't working. Maybe you have found that the feelings of insecurity, hopelessness, or dread just won't go away, no matter how much time and effort you put in. I understand the shame, guilt, and embarrassment that can come with talking about our perceived pitfalls. Every person experiences their own hardships, and we all need the proper time and space to work through them.

Overthinking? Overwhelmed? Panicking? Avoiding the never-ending expectations and responsibilities that keep piling up in relationships, work, and life like the plague and feeling ashamed, scared, angry, confused, or lost because of it? These experiences can be caused by anxiety and/or trauma, and since sometimes it can be difficult to determine which is which, as a therapist I specialize in both to help clear the waters to provide direction, treatment, and relief.

We reach out for help when we recognize that we do not have the tools we need to think differently and/or feel better. This decision is born of insight, humility and courage. During my long career, I have counseled numerous individuals from all walks of life, in both private practice and as Clinical Director of Eating Disorders & Substance Abuse Residential & Outpatient treatment programs. If you are open to expanding your consciousness in areas of aging, transitions, sadness, anxiety, relationships (mending/ending), compulsive eating/binge eating/bulimia, sickness, dying, death and grief, sexuality, spirituality, let's meet.

Right now, you are struggling, and it is hard to find the motivation and strength to get through each day. "Stressed out" is an understatement. Things are overwhelming and you feel like you are suffocating. It all happened so fast.

Help has been put off for awhile… You have "family issues” and often times feel so alone. Racing heart beat, everything feeling like it’s closing in, feelings of panic are all too common. You might be tired of coping with substances/ medications. Feeling rested doesn’t happen anymore, and sometimes the whole night is spent worrying. You always find a reason for not getting help. Life is just too busy with work and other stuff going on. Overwhelm takes over a lot. But, you are tired of living this way… Life is just too hard…

You are not alone, sister... Though you do your best to get up, get dressed (yoga pants count, ladies!) and smile while you uphold all your roles/responsibilities, you are actually living an anxious, panicked, stressed, overwhelmed and depressed life (or your daughter is). Your best version of YOU is locked away - longing. While you hope one day you'll just feel better, in the meantime you find yourself in the same place: struggling, anxious, frustrated, exhausted, detached, fearful, isolated, unsettled, desperate. I don't want you to settle for living this way any longer; there is hope and this does not have to be your "normal."

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.
