Hi there! I'm Colleen Sweeney, MA and I understand how difficult it can be to speak up when life feels overwhelming. As a teen or preteen, asking for help can feel almost impossible. Sometimes it feels like you are totally alone in what you are feeling and going through. It takes incredible bravery to reach out, and I acknowledge that courage. Maybe you don’t even want to talk about it, whatever "it" is—and that’s okay. My goal is to create a warm, welcoming, and safe environment where you feel comfortable exploring your thoughts and concerns. Growing up, you might hear that others have it worse, but your feelings and experiences

I believe therapy is most effective when people feel safe, comfortable and at ease in a non-judgmental, neutral environment. It is here that people can safely process everyday stressors, difficult experiences past or present, symptoms of anxiety that may be showing up in their life, symptoms of depression, codependency, relationship and or family conflict, or struggling with changes happening around them. My hope is to help people feel seen, heard, and to feel empowered by offering a warm, compassionate and supportive space to my clients. You do not need to do any of this alone and I am so glad you are here!

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.
