I am accepting new clients for immediate openings. I specialize in working with women who are feeling stressed out, burned out, hopeless, or overwhelmed; dealing with or recovering from an unhealthy relationship; need help managing adult ADHD; and/or dealing with other life challenges. You don’t have to figure it out alone, we will work together to figure out the tools necessary for you to live the life that you desire. Sometimes just talking with someone, in a non-judgmental setting, can help you begin to release the heaviness and frustration that you might be experiencing.

I am trained as both a counselor and an art therapist. I work well with clients who have difficulty identifying or expressing their emotions and inner experience. Many of my clients have tried traditional talk therapy but found it challenging or even frustrating. We work well together using an experiential approach. Art therapy is a way of working that helps you to express thoughts and feelings when words fail. You do not need any artistic skill to do art therapy - just a willingness to explore with a sense of curiosity. I am certified in Internal Family Systems and integrate this approach into art and sandtray therapy.

I believe that each individual is a unique being and that throughout different times in our lives we may feel uncomfortable. This feeling is our mind and body’s way of telling us that growth is within our reach. There are some essential necessities that we all need to feel safe, but once those are met, we can all learn to grow in new ways. If you can trust me in the safe space that we will create together, I will do my best to provide you with the guidance you need. I am flexible in my approach, adjusting to meet you where you at so growth is obtainable and achievable.

No matter where you are in life, challenging moments arise and can become overwhelming and emotionally draining. Past trauma, fears, worries, loss, and constant stress can also make daily functioning difficult. Through a holistic approach to therapy, I use mindfulness, communication, and collaboration to focus on physical, emotional, social, and overall well-being. I offer individualized care to children, adolescents, and adults struggling with symptoms of anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, trauma, and other mental health, social or emotional difficulties.

FAQ - Therapist Gender
Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, 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 because they feel more comfortable with a therapist of their own gender due to shared life experiences or perspectives. Considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender may matter or improve their therapeutic experience. The most important consideration is that a client is able to build a trusting relationship with their therapist.

Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist. For women, this could be because they believe that they will be able to better connect with a woman, and that a female therapist will be able to relate to their specific challenges and personal issues. It may be particularly beneficial for women to see a female therapist, for example, for gender-specific issues, such as sexism in the workplace, relationship issues, and gender roles. The most important factor in therapy is the client-therapist connection, and a therapist's gender as well as many other factors may play an important role in this.

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 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.
