Navigating the “in‑between” can feel overwhelming. I support middle schoolers, teens, college students, young adults up to age 30, and women moving through major life transitions. Many carry the weight of trauma, social pressures, identity shifts, or family conflict and are trying to make sense of experiences that feel tangled or heavy. I offer a grounded space to sort through these challenges, overcome obstacles, and move from fragmentation to clarity, building healing and practical tools to break cycles, strengthen relationships, and step into a more whole, empowered self.

A lot of the people I work with don’t come in because just one thing is wrong. It’s usually a mix of things that have been building over time.
It might start with stress or anxiety constantly overthinking, feeling on edge, or trying to keep everything under control. Then it shows up in other areas. Maybe your mood drops and you’re dealing with depression or feeling disconnected from yourself. Maybe anger starts coming out more than you’d like, or you find yourself shutting down in relationships. For some, it’s deeper than that. Past trauma, grief, or moments you haven’t fully processed can continue to show up throughout your life.

You're carrying more than most people see. Perhaps you're the leader everyone leans on, the partner trying to hold it all together, or the person who's finally ready to admit that success on the outside doesn't always match what's happening within. You've achieved so much, yet something feels incomplete—a relationship that's lost its spark, grief you haven't had permission to feel, or a growing sense that there's more to life than the role you've been playing.

I believe therapy is a collaborative space for folks to explore their biographies and learn to hold deeper relationships with their own self and others. Change happens when we feel safe to be curious and understanding of our patterns and choices. I invite clients to explore the intersections of their identities with me as we create a space that is brave and trusting. I see the connection between the external world and our internal experience as central to the therapy process. I'm mindful to social identities, dynamics in family systems, and the larger cultural landscape that impact a person's sense of self.

Women's Issues Therapists
How do you encourage a woman to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual may be suffering, and what effects it has on them, should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
How can women prepare for therapy?
Women can prepare for therapy by being willing to talk about their past experiences and their private thoughts. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. Between sessions, it can be useful to write down notes about their reaction to a given event or how they felt at a particular time.
How long does therapy for women’s issues often last?
As with any type of therapy, sessions depend on the individual and the challenges they face. Therapy types like Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Prolonged exposure therapy (PET), and Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. In some cases, such as for women with eating disorders, residential treatment may be recommended for an individual who is judged to be at high risk of self-harm. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realized.
How can women overcome stigma around specific challenges in order to seek therapy?
Women dealing with domestic abuse, sexual assault, eating disorders, and any other number of troubles may feel a stigma around seeking help. It’s important to remember that these issues are not uncommon and there is no shame in getting help for them. Therapy is confidential, and women can talk about their experiences without fear of judgment. Seeking therapy can be a courageous and liberating act, and an important step toward healing and recovery.
