I utilize a broad range of therapies, including cognitive behavior, solution-focused and person-centered to address depression and anxiety, mental health disorders, aging, life transitions, relationships, grief, caregiving issues, parenting, women's issues , sexuality and spirituality.
I assist adults in healing their hurts and transforming their lives for the better. You are not alone and you do not have to carry your strains and stresses by yourself. My clients can develop a better sense of self, live in healthier relationships, and grow in confidence focusing on strengths to find balance by providing solid, practical tools and skills to support healthy growth throughout the life cycle. You deserve to be part of positive life experiences supported by a companion to "walk" with you on life's journey. Doing so allows you to find balance in the ebb and flow of life.

I offer a safe and non-judgmental space to address anxiety, depression, adjustment issues and various forms of grief. My background is largely in healthcare with emphasis on mental health and navigating illness. I have specific insight into the particular stressors of those working in healthcare/helping professions and other emotionally demanding jobs. My additional specialties lie in women's issues , geriatrics, caregiver fatigue and LGBTQ+

Women's Issues Therapists

How do you encourage a woman to go to therapy?

It’s helpful to express concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual may be suffering, and what effects it has on them, should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.

How can women prepare for therapy?

Women can prepare for therapy by being willing to talk about their past experiences and their private thoughts. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. Between sessions, it can be useful to write down notes about their reaction to a given event or how they felt at a particular time.

How long does therapy for women’s issues often last?

As with any type of therapy, sessions depend on the individual and the challenges they face. Therapy types like Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Prolonged exposure therapy (PET), and Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. In some cases, such as for women with eating disorders, residential treatment may be recommended for an individual who is judged to be at high risk of self-harm. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realized.

How can women overcome stigma around specific challenges in order to seek therapy?

Women dealing with domestic abuse, sexual assault, eating disorders, and any other number of troubles may feel a stigma around seeking help. It’s important to remember that these issues are not uncommon and there is no shame in getting help for them. Therapy is confidential, and women can talk about their experiences without fear of judgment. Seeking therapy can be a courageous and liberating act, and an important step toward healing and recovery.
