I’ve seen firsthand how my approach supports girls and young women to develop new habits of thinking and behavior, building resilience and self-assurance.
The way forward is to just start. So let’s begin where you are at. While you may think your problems are roadblocks to achieving more of what you want in life, they are actually pathways to understanding yourself and creating future possibilities. Understanding how your life experiences have shaped who you are today is important, but it’s only the first step. Learning specific skills, tools, and strategies can help you get more of what you want and less of what you don’t, supporting you to create a foundation for a life that feels more fulfilling.

I am a licensed therapist, recovery, and spiritual counselor working with people seeking meaningful changes. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help you identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop new ways of thinking that can lead to behavior change and more stable moods and emotions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy encourages the use of mindfulness skills and exploration of your values that can lead you to living into your most authentic self. Sand Play Therapy is a more creative or expressive approach to self-discovery by gaining insights into what is currently going on in your life and how you want it to be.

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.
