I have had the privilege to guide women and teenage girls through anxiety, depression, coping with a family member’s addiction, college transitions, codependency, difficult relationships and more. As a Telehealth certified therapist who offers late afternoon appointment times (5:30 and 6:30 appointment times are currently available for new clients), I'm able to help provide better access to therapy for many individuals. I offer face to face telehealth therapy sessions to teenage girls and women 15 and older in Mississippi at times that are perfect for after school or work.

Life is for living. Many times in life we let past experiences, people and situations keep us from moving forward. It's easy to get bogged down in every day life and forget to work on ourselves. Fears, depression and life circumstances can interfere with individual growth, accomplishing goals and thriving. We hope and wish that problems will resolve on their own. However, most road blocks start within - the messages we receive and what we tell ourselves. Only you can love yourself enough to try. It's not easy, at times, but it is so worth the effort.

Are you worrying yourself into a frenzy? If you’ve been unable to control it, your friends are telling you you’re making too big of a deal out of it, and its lasted for more days than you care to honestly say, then you might have anxiety.

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.
