For the past 10 years I have worked with men and women experiencing sexual addiction (my specialty area), broken and traumatic relationships and feelings of despair.
Connection is key! I seek to provide the space for clients to allow themselves to be open, explore and accept aspects about themselves where shame and fear may have been the barrier. Past trauma, damaging relationships, anxiety, depression, and spiritual abuse are just a few areas where shame and fear are created. These lead us to isolate, mask, and seek unhealthy coping skills in order to face the day. If you find yourself not enjoying relationships, not able to fulfill or even understand your passion/purpose, or stuck in anxiety, depression or addiction I would be honored to walk through these things with you.

I am a straight, married, biracial woman who has extensive experience with the church (for better and for worse) and I am welcoming to people from all walks of life.
If it feels like you're in a constant battle within your mind, you're not alone. Many people experience negative thoughts and feelings that sometimes feel overwhelming. Maybe you're struggling with self-esteem, depression, or anxiety. Maybe you're confronting tension in your faith or close relationships. Perhaps you're left reeling after a life event. Big and small life changes alike can cause you to feel like your foundations are shaking. But whatever you may be experiencing, finding the right therapist can go a long way towards healing and growth. This is where I hope to help!

My goal as a counselor is to create a positive, supportive environment in which you can explore yourself, your needs, and your goals. You will also have the opportunity to assess the barriers that prevent you from reaching your full potential. The rational, holistic, and non-judgmental nature to the counseling I provide allows YOU to guide your own counseling experience. I believe that therapy should be an active and progressive movement toward change, therefore, direct yet gentle challenges to old patterns is necessary for active growth.

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.
