My goal for each client is to help them get un-stuck. Whether you are a teenager struggling with self-esteem and depression, an adult struggling with anxiety and negative self-talk seeping in from past relationships, or a family struggling with parenting issues, poor communication, problem behaviors, and environmental stressors, I believe my background and training are well suited to assist in positively affecting change. I have experience as both an inpatient and outpatient therapist and feel the combination of these two worlds gives me a unique set of skills to serve you.

Sometimes we get stuck. We’ve done everything we know to help ourselves, then comes a time when we need some extra support to figure out the rest. Counseling can be a place to gain clarity about what you're going through and learn how to be your most true and thriving self. I often support children, individuals and families struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship problems, irritability/anger, and new transitions in their lives.

Therapy is empowering and benefits a person’s overall mental and emotional well-being. I seek to provide a supportive and empathic environment where individuals can begin their emotional healing process while learning coping tools to support their goals. I have worked with adults, adolescents and children and realize that everyone has different lived experiences, and that one type of therapy does not fit all. I work with clients who have experienced depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, stress management, trauma, and abuse. It is my priority to provide a warm and safe environment for clients to begin their healing journey.

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.
