My patients often struggle with finding their worth due to poor self-esteem or past traumas. They often have difficulty asserting themselves and creating healthy boundaries in relationships. I enjoy working with patients and being a part of their growth and change as they find their true purpose and begin to live their best lives.

Hi there! Raise your hand if you describe yourself as an over-thinker. Perhaps you’ve felt paralyzed by indecision in your life- fearful about trusting yourself enough to make choices that worked for you. Maybe you’ve had difficulty managing stress in your daily life without fixating on every possible outcome that could go wrong. Perhaps you've had difficulty managing your racing thoughts. Maybe you have a hard time seeing the value you bring to your work and relationships. Your anxiety might feel like a weight around your leg that you drag with you into every social situation and you don't know how to keep it from pulling you down.

I have helped women with depression, anxiety, addictions, stress and trauma related conditions.
You had a vision for yourself and wanted to be living your best life. But you are thinking, “I don’t like how things are playing out right now.” Maybe you are feeling anxious, annoyed, your patience is short, and you are starting to feel depressed. It is possible that some unaddressed past issues are making their way into your present. It’s time to connect with someone who can help you get to know you better so you can understand why you are feeling what you are feeling and explore ways to help you heal. But the deal breaker is you also need someone who will respect your faith and your beliefs.

It is your time to live intentionally. Enough of the self-blame, guilt-shame, and disorganized thinking.

You are clearly someone who sees enough value in yourself that you want to learn the necessary tools to elevate. There are days we feel less than or have major highs and lows.

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.
