“Start where you are. Use what you have. Do what you can.“—Arthur Ashe. We all face difficulties in life and there is no universal “normal.” My goal is to provide a safe space for clients to express themselves without judgment, promote uncensored self-exploration, and uncover truths that might be difficult to face. Offering a different perspective and empathetic understanding can illuminate new pathways and possibilities that might not have been considered. Together, these elements can empower individuals to tap into their own inner strength and find their own way forward.

Young adulthood can be full of anxiety that leads to feeling like you don’t know yourself or what you want in life. You may feel like your head is spinning, and you just can’t seem to get it together. Through our work together, my goal is to empower you to live true to yourself. We will define your goals and values to establish a genuine sense of self; then I will encourage you (and hold you accountable!) to make choices that align with them. It isn’t about “finding yourself” but intentionally creating the best version of you.

Working with those who struggle to overcome the trauma of abusive relationships has been my life dream. However, trauma comes in many forms and leaves ugly scars that wreck havoc on our lives, but it does not have to control our lives. We can be overcomers! Working from a Mindfulness/CBT and person centered perspective allows us change the way we think about our past and regain control of our future.

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.
