You may be feeling stressed because of changes happening in your life. At night you replay (multiple times) all that happened that day, and wonder if you said or did the right thing. This has you feeling exhausted, sad, lonely, or worried, and you realize you have nothing left in your tank. You want to feel better, but you’re unsure where to start. You’ve come to the right place. Together we will explore how past experiences and present day stressors are impacting your energy and mood. I bring over two decades of experience to our work together, and will help you clarify issues and set goals to greater life satisfaction.

I support individuals with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, and overall life management. I believe every emotion carries a message, and through deeper exploration, we can uncover greater meaning. I trust in individuals' inherent ability to heal through self-awareness. Life often leads us to mask our true selves and conform to external expectations, causing tension and unfulfilling life choices. Chronic stress and trauma can erode coping mechanisms, leading us to numb or hide. My mission is to guide and empower clients in restoring their sense of self, aligning with their values, and finding emotional freedom.

Female Therapists
Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, 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 because they feel more comfortable with a therapist of their own gender due to shared life experiences or perspectives. Considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender may matter or improve their therapeutic experience. The most important consideration is that a client is able to build a trusting relationship with their therapist.
Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist. For women, this could be because they believe that they will be able to better connect with a woman, and that a female therapist will be able to relate to their specific challenges and personal issues. It may be particularly beneficial for women to see a female therapist, for example, for gender-specific issues, such as sexism in the workplace, relationship issues, and gender roles. The most important factor in therapy is the client-therapist connection, and a therapist's gender as well as many other factors may play an important role in this.
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 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.
