I work best with women who experience anxiety, depression and struggle to focus on their own needs. Problem areas may include becoming explosive or frustrated toward those you love and having difficulty changing your emotional reactions no matter how hard you try. You may feel like your life is not headed in the direction you would like it to go. Common concerns include anger and rage, resentment, not feeling like yourself and feeling as though you can’t keep it together like “all the other moms.”

I work with clients who have varying struggles from anxiety, body image, depression and life transitions. Our daily struggles are held within our body and impact everything from daily functioning, relationships to how we take up space in our environment. As a dance/movement therapist I will utilize body based interventions (ex. breathing, imagery and metaphor) to assist in exploring how your body holds onto symptoms. Through the interconnectedness of body, mind and spirit you can explore how to shift to allow daily life to become more manageable and enjoyable.

We all encounter wounds from different phases of life, relationships and traumas. However, we aren’t always taught the tools that offer us resolution and healing. We are conditioned to be victimized by this pain rather than transforming it for a greater purpose. I believe when we integrate using our gifts towards life’s challenges and fully embrace the darkness within us, we can use it to our advantage, turning our pain into purpose.

My clients are adults who have experienced (or are currently experiencing) life challenges such as: surgery or illness, grief & loss (passing of a loved one, divorce, breakup, job loss/career change, moving, chronic illness, rebuilding their identity, etc.) a traumatic experience or childhood trauma, mood regulation (anxiety, depression, resentment, etc.), and social or communication conflict (family dynamics, friendship or relationship, work stress, etc.). I help people who have been avoiding or "dissociating" but now want to understand their emotions and feelings more deeply.

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.
