Parenting is an extremely challenging life stage. Whether you are trying to conceive, pregnant, postpartum, or parenting, it is likely that you are experiencing some form of stress or anxiety. This is not only true of birthing mothers, but also non-birthing parents, fathers, and adopted parents. I am the owner of The Mindful Mommy, a practice offering group and individual therapy throughout New York, South Carolina, and Florida via a secure telehealth platform.

Discovering our relationships are not what we thought they were can be a devastating and lonely place to be. Have you been blind-sided and discovered your partner has betrayed you? Do you feel you're continually left trying to pick up the pieces? Have you felt or been told it's "your fault"? Has the unacceptable become acceptable? Have you found yourself torn between relationships or in relationships you are confused about? My job is to offer a safe, non judgmental place for you to come and be heard. You are not alone. Together we can work on a plan for moving forward in a healthy way. There is HOPE.

Do you find yourself struggling with life and relationships? Are there things in your life that you desire to change but you don't know where to start? Do you feel overwhelmed just considering it? I enjoy helping clients working through transitional times through counseling and life coaching, as well as, working with emotional and coping difficulties. I approach therapy from an eclectic, holistic approach, believing that when one facet of a person suffers all others are affected as well. I would love to help you to reach your life goals and to begin to improve your quality of life. I do adult individual and couples therapy.

We all need to feel understood and accepted for our own uniqueness and individual ways of learning, doing and being our "personal best". We need courage to find ways to try again when things don't go as planned despite our efforts. Counseling provides a safe haven for the release and expression of our thoughts and feelings without judgement .

Making the decision to participate in therapy is a big step. I applaud you for making this decision because I know it is not an easy one. Maybe you are suddenly in the midst of an emotional crisis. Something happened such as a breakup, a death, job loss or many other possibilities. Now what? How to deal with this pain or grief, loss or stressful situation. By forming a relationship with a neutral outside person who has training in these matters, you can begin to get a handle of what is going on for you, identify your thoughts and feelings and develop a plan for positive change.

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.
