Are you struggling with connecting with people in your life? Despite everything you have tried, it seems hard to find answers or lasting relief. Too often individuals feel unhappy with their life and manage their pain with food, alcohol, unhealthy relationships, and other distractions or dysfunctional behaviors.

Release to Peace was founded out of a sheer desire to create a safe, non-judgmental space where women can begin (or continue) to get to the root of some of their issues, uncovering thoughts and beliefs that have reinforced wounds and hindered them from showing up as their healthiest, authentic selves.
The one place we all deserve to feel safe in is within ourselves. So many things disrupt that safety - childhood wounds, attachment issues, relational conflict, trauma and more. With each wound, a piece of solace is scraped from our being. For many of us, these experiences have left us feeling “stuck” inside ourselves, trapped, and we can’t get out, when what we desire is our “being” to be a place we love and feel safe in. How we show up in the world - the decisions we make, the trust we have in ourselves, how we navigate relationships, and even the courage we gather to heal- is a direct reflection of how safe we feel.

Whether by choice or circumstance, we sometimes find ourselves in continuous cycles. Either way this can be tough. One important factor is not holding on to blame, shame, anger, guilt and unforgiveness. These emotions influence our thoughts, behaviors, and actions. Consequences of unwanted repetitive patterns are typically unfavorable. A second important factor is recognizing your power to overcome obstacles. Sometimes life's challenges help uncover how much we can handle. A third important factor is knowing you're not alone. I will help you along your journey as you develop skills to identify, manage, heal and grow.

I believe we need to feel it to heal it! What exactly does that mean? We all have an individual journey to navigate and the best way to attain balance is learning how to trust someone with life “lived” experiences, empathy, failures and successes. We deserve the opportunity of experiencing at least one genuine relationship with a trusted professional that will keep it real. Once we believe we are seen & heard, our self-worth shows up in unimaginable ways. I am prepared to support you along this process if you commit to showing up for you. As long as you try, change is doable and new habits will foster lasting, healthy relationships.

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.
