I enjoy encouraging people in overcoming their fears, sadness, and loneliness. Most of us have experienced events that keep us stuck in patterns that no longer serve us and drain us of our energy to move in a new direction. I compassionately and effectively walk along side my clients to help them find new, effective ways to live the life they truly desire. If you are seeking counsel from a caring and competent therapist, I look forward to hearing from you soon!

“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.

Want to live beyond your life? Sometimes in life we get stuck between what we imagined our life to be and what it really is. This gap can create a lot of struggles and distress that can lead to unhealthy ways of thinking, which in turn leads to unhealthy behaviors. It is time to tend the gap and start living the life you imagined free from a depressed mood and anxiety that may be the source of your gap.

Life can be hard. Unfortunately, despite our best planning efforts, life rarely goes how we want it. That can often leave us feeling discouraged, anxious, depressed, overwhelmed, frustrated and many other emotions. I am passionate about helping others get through some of the hardest and some of the best seasons of their life. I know that it can be hard and scary to give counseling a try or it seems your problems aren’t big enough to go to counseling, but I say that there is never anything too small or too big to bring into the counseling room.

Brene Brown wrote, "The dark does not destroy the light; it defines it. It’s our fear of the dark that casts our joy into the shadows.” Opening oneself is a courageous and vulnerable act. I want to convey that you will be provided a space to be known and heard on your journey towards healing. That path often takes unexpected twists and turns; it is my role to help you identify and foster the strengths necessary to navigate those challenges and fears.

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.
