People can look like they "have it all together" but feel like their world is falling apart. People often put on a brave face, smile, and say "I'm fine" but they are crumbling inside, finding it difficult to focus. Struggles with family, relationships, work, and school may stem from different experiences that have affected how a person develops emotionally and how a person sees the world around them. The sadness and emotional disconnect that occurs can cause loneliness and anger; anxiety and pain.

Hi, I’m Jen! I specialize in working with young adults and Millennials (people aged 18-40) who struggle with generalized or social anxiety, or who need support with adjusting to various life transitions. On the outside you may look like you've got it all together but on the inside you find yourself worrying, overthinking, people pleasing, second guessing your choices, and doubting your capabilities. You can’t stop spiraling with the “what if’s” and negative self-talk. Trusting your feelings is hard so you often seek validation when making decisions. Many days you wake up feeling overwhelmed and dreading the day ahead. I hear you.

For many, the idea of sharing your most personal thoughts, feelings, and experiences with someone else can be overwhelming, particularly if you have faced judgment, rejection, trauma, or other adverse experiences in your life. It can be difficult to imagine trusting someone enough to allow them to hear your story. However, it is in that vulnerable place where the magic of healing can occur. I strive to create a warm, safe, and accepting environment as a means to develop trust and a strong therapeutic alliance. My approach is supportive and collaborative, and we will work at a pace that is comfortable for you.

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.
