You may be juggling life having fear or anxiety as you do your best. You may have experienced betrayal in significant relationships, such as infidelity, emotional abuse or neglect, leading to profound feelings of mistrust, insecurity, and fear of intimacy. You may struggle with attachment issues, finding it challenging to form healthy connections or maintain boundaries in relationships. You may just feel isolated or scared as you are moving forward after a major challenge or transition in life. I support adults to challenge negative beliefs, disruptive behaviors, explore behaviors that do not serve you and you want to change.

Maybe you’re feeling touched-out, overwhelmed or you don't recognize the person staring back at you in the mirror anymore. This may be during a break up, job transition, infertility, during the changes of pregnancy and motherhood, or grief and loss. Maybe you want to heal past trauma or understand the impact of attachment style on your current relationships or parenting. Whatever brings you here, you’ll find the empathy and validation you’ve been craving. I have a special affinity for working with clients struggling with pregnancy, parenting, postpartum and grief/loss.

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.
