Life can be challenging and sometimes, these challenges can be overwhelming. My approach to therapy is first to create a safe space where a person can process their thoughts and feelings. I believe we all have strengths that have helped us cope throughout our lives. Sometimes, we just need a space where we can stop, reenergize and maybe even learn new skills.

My specialization is treating trauma and PTSD and I also have years of expertise in depression, anxiety, parenting, grief, spirituality, life transitions, mood disorders and women's issues.
If given the option between two paths in life, most of us would not select the one filled with hardship. Yet, it is part of the human experience that we endure seasons and even years filled with confusion and pain. At times we are able to work through these weighty seasons on our own and at other times we need someone to walk with us. I hope that in your search, you will be able to identify a skilled and well-matched therapist to walk alongside you.

Are you or your child struggling with past trauma? Unresolved trauma can manifest in many ways. Often people are depressed, anxious or constantly worried. You might find that even the most mundane tasks are overwhelming. In children, this can often look like frequent tantrums, defiance or poor performance. People often try a multitude of things before seeking therapy. But often exploring these traumas in a safe, non-judgmental space can be just the thing you or your child may need.

As humans, we will inevitably go through many life changes and events. Sometimes, those experiences can affect us in many different ways. You may experience moments of happiness, sadness, anger, or hopelessness. Some of these feelings, in turn, may impact how you view yourself as well as the world around you. Although you may be able to navigate through some of your emotions on your own, there may be times when you feel as if you need more assistance. It is okay to not be okay. It's also okay to seek help. I truly enjoy working with individuals and helping them cultivate peace within themselves and in their lives in general.

Female Therapists

Does it matter what gender my therapist is?

In general, this is not an important factor, as 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 ingrained beliefs about how people of different genders think and behave. Exploring the roots of such preferences and considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender truly matters to them.

Should I see a female therapist?

Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist, either because they believe that a woman will be able to relate to their specific challenges (for example, sexism in the workplace) or because they imagine feeling more comfortable disclosing sensitive information to a woman. Such beliefs may not turn out to be accurate, however, and adhering too rigidly to a gender preference can at times hinder a client from finding the best therapeutic match.

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—both men and women—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.
