Have you ever felt stuck in a loop you can’t break—replaying conversations, rewriting messages so you don’t sound “too much,” or burning out trying to prove your worth? Overthinking is exhausting. If you could simply stop, you would have already done that.
Perfectionism, people-pleasing, imposter syndrome, and a loud inner critic aren’t flaws—they’re habits you learned to stay safe, in control, and on others’ good side at work and in relationships. If this feels familiar, I can help you shift these patterns, calm self-doubt, trust your voice, and lean into your full potential.

You're the "go to" woman for everyone in your life. On paper, you're that high-achieving boss who everyone in your life relies on. Outside it looks like you've got it all together, but inside you're on a downward spiral. The stress, anxiety, and deep fatigue of giving, caring, or catering to others has become so overwhelming that it's effecting your mental, physical, & spiritual health. You may not be sure how to regain control of your own body and mind and if you do, you have no idea (or energy) where to begin. It isn't easy for you to reach out for help, but you know something has to change. Your life depends on it.

"What is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?" asked the poet, Mary Oliver. I've been thinking about this every day since the first time I read it. It's some question, isn't it? Sometimes it inspires me. Sometimes it frightens me. Since it always challenges me, I've rooted my practice philosophy in it. It's kind of like the adult version of “what do you want to be when you grow up”? How in the world do we answer that?

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.
