Are you struggling with not feeling good enough? Feeling too anxious to leave home or easily overwhelmed by daily life? Is your child struggling with maintaining behaviors at home or experienced significant trauma from home or school? If you're wanting to generally feel brighter so that you can live your best life now, then I can be there to help you heal. People often only think of trauma as a major disaster but it can be much less obvious like: negative self talk, negative sibling interactions, bad teachers, abusive relationships, parental overreactions and bullying. All leave scars and need some help to heal.

Often, seeking guidance from an unbiased and outside source can be a vital key to personal progression. As a therapist, I want to maintain an open and honest dialogue with my clients that assists them in creating positive change in their marriages, families and individual lives. Having someone hold you accountable, as you take the necessary steps to correct unhealthy patterns, can be crucial to success. Too often, individuals choose to remain victims of their circumstances, rather than proactively changing their mindset, and becoming victors. I seek to empower clients through uncovering what may be hindering their growth.

Feeling stressed? Overwhelmed? Experiencing major life changes? Some enter therapy with goals in mind while others feel "stuck" and look for self-understanding. I believe external factors (stressful events, life experiences) and internal factors (how we think, feel, and react) impact how we relate to others and evaluate ourselves. These factors can create patterns in our lives that we want to change.

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.
