You are a motivated, empathic, and sensitive woman. Lately, you feel lost and numb, and wonder if you will ever feel better. You thought you were ok, but past experiences have reappeared. Anxiety and sadness have crept in. No one can tell because you hold it all together. Faking a smile, scrolling, avoiding, or withdrawing isn’t helping anymore. You’re exhausted. It’s taking a toll, and you have shut down. You want to feel confident, less shame and self-doubt, and no longer feel the past is in control. You’re ready to make lasting changes. You’re ready to feel again and gain a sense of calm and peace from what is holding you back.

Are you watching your teen struggle with worries that don’t seem to turn off, rituals that are exhausting, or fears that feel bigger than the situation? You might feel confused about how to help them. Many parents I meet are doing their best while still wondering, “Am I missing something?” "Are we doing enough… or too much?" or “Will this always be this hard?” If any of these questions sound familiar, you’re not failing your child. You’re responding to something that’s genuinely hard, and you don’t have to figure it out alone.

My ideal client is a high-functioning woman who has spent years managing everything on her own — but internally feels exhausted, anxious, or like something unresolved is quietly running the show. She's self-aware and has likely tried to think her way through it. What she hasn't been able to do is change the patterns — the over-responsibility, the emotional shutdown, the difficulty asking for what she needs. She's ready to stop coping and start actually healing.

It’s been a rough few years, hasn’t it? Or maybe challenging times go way further back than that for you. You’re carrying the weight of a painful childhood, or trying to navigate a world that doesn’t welcome your authentic self. You feel frazzled and frantic….or maybe you’re so numb and shut down that it’s hard to connect with others—and your relationship with yourself is suffering too. You want to shed the shame you’re tired of lugging around, feel comfortable in your own skin, and show up more present in your own life. (Please note that I am not currently accepting clients or adding to my waitlist at this time.)

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.
