When you're at a crossroads, what drives the choices you make? I'm a licensed marriage and family therapist helping my clients take charge of their life and love stories. In college, I wrote a piece for a creative writing class in which the protagonist was a not-so-subtle self insert.

I decided to take charge of my own life right then and there, and now I want you to have your own main character moment. My skills and training, and those of my associates, are at your disposal.

Do you ever feel like life just keeps happening and you are trying to keep up? That feeling of holding your breathe; preparing yourself for whatever may come next?

When did you last feel joyful, creative, witty, fun, or peaceful? For people of all ages, managing the many responsibilities of social, work, school, sports, family, or a sudden loss can steal your joy. Parenting a child with emotional or behavioral concerns can bring additional challenges and strain to your relationships. Without passion and connections, you may feel stressed, judged, overwhelmed, anxious, or depressed. Over time, experiences of anxiety and depression can numb other emotions, leaving you feeling empty. Play and creativity can be meaningful for everyone and help you find balance, purpose, joy, and meaning.

Female Therapists
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.
