Female Therapists in Columbiana County, OH
You have hit a breaking point where your anxiety has taken over. It’s running your life and it feels like you’ve lost control… which is not your favorite feeling. You are desperate to not have to go through your day with this feeling of dread, this knot in your stomach that just won’t let you relax and enjoy those little moments in your life that you so desperately want to enjoy. You lie awake at night and think about all of the things you said/didn’t say, the things you did/didn’t do. Your family tries to be supportive but they don’t understand that you can’t just “stop worrying about it”.

Hello! Thank you so much for reviewing my page. I currently work with young adults and adults with a specialty in trauma. I always say that it is my job to get "fired," as I feel that the goal of counseling is to get out of counseling once goals are met and when my client feels comfortable and confident in knowing themselves and their abilities. Growth is the best measure of progress, no matter how big or small. I often work with complex trauma, which can come in a wide range of diagnoses including, but not limited to, PTSD, anxiety, and depression.

East Palestine, OH 44413 (Online Only)
Mindful Tides Therapy was formed to provide an atmosphere for our clients to individualize their goals. We recognized the decrease in quality client care through the “big box” therapy practices that are owned by those who are not clinicians themselves, and it was important for us to provide a safe space for clients to have input into their treatment plans. Our goal is to aid our clients in finding a secure, collaborative, compassionate, and ethical therapy environment. It is a priority for us to provide our team of therapists with the training and work and life balance they need to practice comfortably.

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.
