I’ve been a therapist for 26 years, blending traditional psychotherapy with neuroscience and mindfulness practices to support an individuals process of integrating mind and body. I have studied extensively the latest developments in neuroscience and how we can use these findings to develop skills to reduce anxiety, alleviate depression, and face our challenges with a renewed perspective. We will explore the causes, beliefs and behaviors that create and perpetuate the issues, to gain more insight and understanding of the process and how to work with yourself to find more peace and happiness in life.

My clients may be highly functioning while under stress or meeting challenges. However, I know looks can be deceiving. You can make it look really good but not be feeling good, or you may make choices that aren’t working out and are wondering why. This is a time when extra training and development is needed. I provide space for you to explore, meet challenges, increase understanding, navigate relationships, better communication, and process events.

Calling all people pleasers, workaholics, and overachievers! Have you ever felt like saying no or setting boundaries is akin to embarking on a journey up Mount Everest? The very idea of disappointing someone can halt you in your tracks. Your focus is like a laser beam, aimed at fulfilling the needs of others, leaving no room for your own desires. Yet, deep within, you're aware that this relentless pursuit isn't fulfilling. It's as if you're navigating through a dense fog, where the expectations of others obscure your own path. There's an undeniable yearning within you, a whisper of your own aspirations amidst the chaos.

You may have been stuck many times in your life: in boring jobs, disrespectful bosses, ungrateful friends/family, in sick relationships, in your own lack of confidence, in concerns about your appearance, your intelligence, your body... feeling trapped, desperate, weak, confused. You've got used to it, it becomes routine. You may yearn for happiness and fulfillment, but you don't know how to get rid of that feeling, the guilt, the shame. Or maybe, sometimes you don't even realize that you're stuck at all, you just know that you've lost yourself. You may feel that you are too much, and at the same time, not enough.

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.
