If you're ready to find your inner badass - I can help via online therapy - daytime, evenings & weekends! The stress of all the everyday things - work, family, appointments, etc - can be overwhelming. You get a moment to breathe & you feel guilty, wondering if you deserve to take time for yourself. Clients who are ready for a change - whether after bariatric surgery, while managing chronic illnesses, or embracing their identity - feel unheard and overwhelmed because the support they need isn't there. It can be hard to feel understood when you feel alone in your journey.

I have been working with children and families in one capacity or another since 1978. I try to work in a creative and analytic manner to individualize therapy to help people solve problems. Helping others effectively while keeping a loving detachment requires working on my own balance. That involves keeping a balanced place in my own relationships, work, play and surroundings. Generally, I am a calm and happy person. I like spending time with family, in nature and enjoy making art. I also deal with a chronic disease and have my service dog, Domino, as my partner and she helps me with physical balance.

My ideal client is anyone that is willing to begin their journey of healing and self-discovery. They could be dealing with issues from childhood (trauma, low-self-esteem, etc) , issues with the present (self-comparison, self-critical, etc), or/and the future (what they expect , hopelessness/helplessness). I believe that when it comes to pain, suffering, feeling of being lost, feeling empty, is something that many of us are used to dealing with alone. I joined this profession as proof that one does not have to,unless they choose to.

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.
