Relationships are complicated, parenting is hard and life is messy. Understanding these truths has given me the desire to help people who are struggling. No matter how overwhelming or insignificant you think the problem is, developing a counseling relationship can be beneficial. I will journey with you as you develop goals, coping strategies and communication skills. I honor that families are diverse in composition and adapt treatment to the individual needs of each client. I use a systemic approach and have a wide array of experience with grief counseling, anxiety, depression, women's issues , spiritual concerns, infidelity, life transitions, play therapy, infertility, elder concerns and self-esteem issues.

Therapy can be beneficial to those struggling and facing a variety of challenging life situations. You may be struggling with a relationship, struggling with a physical or mental health issue or have persistent sadness or worries that are getting in the way of your life. Working with a therapist can help you process issues that may be too difficult to work through on your own. I am currently accepting new in-person clients and also offer teletherapy. Additionally, I currently have evening availability.

Accepting New Patients!!! Madeline Albright said, "It took a long time for me to develop a voice and now that I have it, I am not going to be silent." If you are looking to develop your voice and sense of self while overcoming the pain of trauma, I am here to help. Many times, we as women don't use our voice for fear of not being believed, heard, or understood. We keep our pain inside, and it's not healthy.

Maya Angelou said, "You may not control all the events that happen to you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them." Our youth and young adults today are faced with unique challenges their families and loved ones could not have prepared for. Do you or your teen struggle to cope with the events happening in their life? I offer support, tools, and guidance for kids and families that are having difficulty navigating this challenging time. A healthy future can be possible. I also offer EMDR to help with trauma experienced by clients.

I'm happy you are here. I work with women and new parents who are struggling with the transition to pregnancy or parenting and want to feel more enjoyment and confidence in their new identity and relationships. I know it can be intimidating to consider therapy. You may be pregnant or newly postpartum, grappling with the physical, emotional, and environmental changes that come with such a transition. You may be a tired or stressed out parent, trying to “have it all” but always falling behind the endless to-dos. I understand the difficulties that come with expanding your family. We can work together to improve your wellbeing.

In the impactful words of Michelle Obama, "There's power in allowing yourself to be known and heard, in owning your unique story, in using your authentic voice". We all have our own individual stories, shaped by our life experiences, that can change and affect us. Sometimes these experiences may lead us to a place to explore our stories, identify what has altered them, and allow us to decide how we would like our stories to look moving forward. Through the therapeutic journey set at your own pace, the opportunity for healing can take place through connection, conversation, and exploration. Are you interested in exploring your story?

People strive to create meaningful relationships. Many enter psychotherapy because that need isn't being met, wasn't met, or because they fear it won't be met. People feel/behave for reasons often outside awareness. Attempts to master psychological pain determine why people behave consistently, predictably, and sometimes self-destructively. The therapeutic relationship is determined by my ability to provide a safe forum for examining thoughts, feelings, and behaviors by maintaining a nonjudgmental, empathic rapport. Successful treatment integrates cognitive and emotional components of people developing increasing self-awareness. It includes supportive and interpretive interventions, while also leveraging strengths.

Are you struggling with maintaining your sanity as a wife, mother and caretaker? Or are you just someone who needs clarity on what your needs really are? While sometimes it is difficult to understand your own needs, therapy is a way to maintain your self care, learn how to gain better understanding and communicate your needs and feelings, to help you address barriers to healthy relationships and accomplishing personal goals.  As a therapist I have over 10 years of experience in helping adults and adolescents identify their own needs and collaborate to help them recognize how to improve upon those barriers.

Do you feel like you're stuck in a pattern of overthinking and second guessing the decisions you're making in your life? Like your mind is constantly running through your endless to do list? Do you catch yourself feeling guilty for not being able to be "present" enough for those you care about in your life? You're probably amazing at taking care of everyone around you, but struggling to find any time or energy to truly take care of yourself. How would it feel to be fully present? To not always be thinking about what’s next? To be relaxed and here for every season and every stage? To foster authentic, meaningful connections?

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.
