Waitlist for new clients
You can’t take it anymore. You feel yourself both falling apart inside, freaking out, and then shutting down. You try to live your daily life, but the issues of everyday life trigger memories, leaving you feeling emotionally flooded and agitated. You don’t want to continue the pain of the past into your future, but you find yourself having reactions out of proportion to what is happening. It feels unbearable. You want to be sure the people you love are protected and nurtured unlike how you felt growing up. You worry all the time and you feel paralyzed, as though nothing you do or try matters or makes a difference.

I'll meet you where you are and help you recognize your strength and power as you take control of OCD.

Beginning your journey in therapy can be difficult and overwhelming…perhaps even a little scary. It takes a lot of courage to be vulnerable and explore some of the most difficult aspects of your life. That’s why it is so important to find someone who you can trust. I believe life is not just made up of one- but many journeys and the experiences along the way. I enjoy working with individuals who have a multitude of different experiences, cultures, and backgrounds. These experiences help me to incorporate the most important aspects of your identity to ensure your treatment is in alignment with your core beliefs and values.

Research shows the primary agent for positive change in counseling is the quality of the therapeutic relationship. I know sitting down with a relative stranger to discuss life concerns can be unsettling. My ability to establish a genuine connection with my clients helps them to feel at ease while engaging in therapy. Coupling empathy, creativity, and compassion, with evidenced-based practice, I address a variety of mental health issues including adjustment issues/life transitions, anxiety and depression, PTSD, shame, adolescent and women's issues.

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.
