I enjoy and specialize in working with Women’s Issues and Couples counseling.
Life can become very challenging, and oftentimes, without a moment’s notice... things change! We experience a lot of emotions, fears, and questions that come up inside of us. We feel all alone and too embarrassed to talk to anyone about it. It’s Okay...You’re NOT Alone. We all experience hard times. We all need someone we can trust and to talk to. I provide a holistic approach focusing on mind, body, and soul to bring mental health and wellness. I offer an atmosphere of safety and freedom to express yourself without fear of judgement. Pick up the phone and call me today for a FREE 15-minute consultation.

I specialize in working with women (living in TN, KY, FL) who are feeling overwhelmed by life, experiencing difficulty adjusting to change, or grieving the loss of a loved.
Do you ever feel like maybe you should talk to someone but don’t feel like things are “bad enough” yet? Do you feel like “other people have it worse” and “I should be thankful” instead of asking for help? Maybe you don’t feel like adding one more thing to your already hectic schedule. You also probably just don’t feel like fighting traffic in what little free time you do have. Did you know your life does not have to be completely falling apart in order to seek therapy services? What if I told you that you could cut the travel and maximize your precious free time by attending therapy from the comfort of your own space?

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.
