Clients I work with may deal with depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, or in the process of discovering their identity and how they want to show up in the world. Perhaps the client is in a transition in discovering their authentic selves. Perhaps they are looking for ways to resist messages and narratives that keep them in a state of anxiety, and depression. Perhaps they have lived a life where they have been marginalized by systems of oppression. These clients may be searching for ways to learn how to love themselves more fully and be their authentic selves.

Some parts of your life are going well, while other areas feel like a constant uphill battle. It’s as if something invisible is holding you back, leaving you unsure of how to move forward. At Beyond Limits Mental Health & Wellness, our diverse team of therapists understands how heavy that can feel.

Life can be overwhelming, and sometimes, we find ourselves stuck in patterns that no longer serve us. My work is rooted in comprehensive wellness, addressing not just emotional well-being but also exploring how factors like stress, identity, and cultural experiences shape our mental, physical, social, and spiritual health. I believe that true healing goes beyond just talking about problems and past traumas; it involves creating sustainable habits, building self-awareness, and learning how to navigate challenges with confidence and clarity.

My approach to therapy is relational. I create a safe environment of collaboration with clients to work toward eliminating unhealthy obstacles to achieving their goals. These behaviors and beliefs are aftereffects of traumas in their pasts. I promote healing by witnessing the client's story and providing feedback including strengths, progress and the causes of clients' pain. I see therapy as an opportunity to experience new ways of relating and coping while developing and appreciation of who they are. Additional techniques I use as indicated are: cognitive exercises, hypnosis, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy and sand tray therapy.

Female Therapists

Does it matter what gender my therapist is?

In general, 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 because they feel more comfortable with a therapist of their own gender due to shared life experiences or perspectives. Considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender may matter or improve their therapeutic experience. The most important consideration is that a client is able to build a trusting relationship with their therapist.

Should I see a female therapist?

Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist. For women, this could be because they believe that they will be able to better connect with a woman, and that a female therapist will be able to relate to their specific challenges and personal issues. It may be particularly beneficial for women to see a female therapist, for example, for gender-specific issues, such as sexism in the workplace, relationship issues, and gender roles. The most important factor in therapy is the client-therapist connection, and a therapist's gender as well as many other factors may play an important role in this.

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 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.
