I like to think of our treatment connection as a journey and that I am your guide. I help others to gain a better understanding of their situation and to embrace change as a necessary part of life. Life does require us to listen in order to make these changes. My role is to help you listen in a new and different way.

Accepting New Patients: Everyone, at some point in their lives, will experience some type of mental health symptom, be it depression, anxiety, loss/grief, addictions to substances or behaviors, and adjustment to major life changes. The good news is that most of us have been using coping skills that we may not even know that we have. Depending on the situation or severity of symptoms, sometimes seeking help to learn new, or healthier coping skills, as well as having someone listen and help prioritize stressors can make a huge difference in our lives and help no longer feel so frustrated, alone and overwhelmed.

I have helped so many people dealing with issues of mid life crisis and beyond. I work with folks who had a remote father, a perfectionist mother, an angry spouse.

Sources of these feelings may be in childhood or illness, ageing or sometimes the old Peggy Lee song, “Is That All There Is?” We work together to find the old incident or belief and bring it forward to the present where it’s doing its mischief.

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.
