Do you find yourself questioning why you are not happy, no matter what you do? You're someone who wants to feel confident and assured, but fit yourself ruled by feeling out of control with your emotions and reactions, and feeling bad that you can't get your sh-t together. You have an idea about what success would look lit, but the the doors all seem to be shut.

Deciding to reach out for help is admirable and shows tremendous strength. Everyone faces life experiences and thoughts that impact their mental health. I genuinely believe that everyone has strengths and skills to overcome life struggles. It is important to me that I provide my clients with a comfortable and safe environment to explore those strengths and skills. I believe feeling accepted, no matter what you share, can help you avoid holding back out of fear or disapproval, and lead to meaningful changes and growth.

I know how difficult it can be to talk about painful and vulnerable moments in our lives; how intense it can feel to experience uncomfortable emotions. It is important to have someone who is not going to judge or criticize us when we are going through tough times. I value the importance of creating a comforting and open environment that will allow you the opportunity to better understand yourself and grow towards a happier, more fulfilling future. I believe in collaboratively working together to find ways to manage stress, initiate change, or cope with constant worry, intense sadness, and overwhelming anxiety.

Life isn’t always easy and everyone deals with changing emotions. Some days are harder than others and life can change over time or in an instant. Whether dealing with unexpected loss, trauma or life transitions, I can help. I believe the value of therapy begins with having a safe place to talk to someone who will give you their undivided attention and listen without judgement. My goal is to help my clients talk through their challenges in order to help guide them to a resolution that’s best for them. Therapy can be tough, but it can also be energizing and even fun.

Does it feel like a vague, lonely experience that is difficult to describe --let alone understand--even though you are experiencing this "internal discomfort" of inexpressible feelings and moods? Perhaps, you fit the general description of the "average, well-adjusted" adult; however, on the inside, it feels as if you are emotionally or mentally "stuck" somewhere in your past? If this resonates with you, please know that there is hope and that this "internal discomfort" stems from a very valid inner emotional space.

Transgender Therapists

As a gender-diverse individual, why might I want to see a therapist who is also gender diverse?

A trans or gender-diverse client may want to see a therapist who is also trans or gender diverse because the client may feel safer sharing their experiences and more confident that the therapist will understand, validate, and support them. But trans or gender-diverse clients can also benefit from therapy with cisgender therapists; this is a personal decision based on the connection between the client and the therapist, and if that connection is strong, therapy will be successful.

What if I cannot find a therapist who shares my gender identity?

Therapy can still be effective if a therapist does not share a client’s gender identity; a large body of research indicates that the most important factor in successful therapy is the therapeutic alliance. A therapist can also be interviewed for sensitivity and competence on gender identity and expression to ensure they possess appropriate knowledge and skills. Many therapists have excellent training and extensive experience working with gender-diverse clients, and that expertise can be invaluable despite a therapist not sharing the same firsthand experiences.

How can I recognize a good therapist for working with gender-diverse clients?

An experienced therapist should be able to help clients explore their gender identity and expression, alleviate discomfort related to their gender identity, treat mental health challenges and trauma, address existing relationships and communication with family members and loved ones, and determine the next steps pertaining to nonmedical or medical gender-affirming interventions. To recognize a good therapist, clients can ask about these topics and explore their comfort and connection with the clinician.

How might I inquire about a therapist’s experience working with transgender clients?

Clients should feel comfortable asking therapists directly about their experience working with transgender or gender-diverse clientele. For example, clients may ask about the therapist’s training and education with regard to gender identity, how many trans clients they’ve worked with in the past, and what sorts of matters were discussed. You may wish to inquire how a therapist specifically supports the needs of transgender clients or clients questioning their gender identity. A good clinician who is nonetheless not the right fit for you is often happy to make referrals to others based on the concerns you articulate in a preliminary conversation.
