Many of my clients come to therapy feeling emotionally overwhelmed, stuck in painful relationship patterns, or exhausted by anxiety, mood swings, or intense reactions they don’t fully understand. I work primarily with adolescents, young adults, and adults who want both a supportive space to process and practical tools to create real change. My work is primarily trauma-informed and holistic. I have worked in settings ranging from education, residential care, community mental health, and crisis intervention. Those experiences have guided my person-centered and eclectic style.

The populations I am a good fit for are teens and adults who are dealing with anxiety, depression, PTSD, trauma, life changes, relationship issues, and ADHD. As someone who was diagnosed with ADHD later in life, I especially love helping fellow neurodivergent individuals examine and reconstruct beliefs they may have developed about themselves. I am an ADHD-Certified Clinical Services Provider (ADHD-CCSP). I also really enjoy being an unbiased support for teens and helping them discover who they are and what they want out of life in their transition from adolescence to adulthood.

Do you ask yourself “I’m smart, why is this so difficult?” Or find yourself repeating patterns where you think, “I should know better?” Maybe you were identified as Gifted as a child (or your teen is gifted) and wonder why they call it "gifted" when things are hard? Do you feel you lost your giftedness when you entered high school and gifted "support" became AP classes? Then maybe you could use a guide to help you uncover and understand those things you feel you “should know” or be able to do but might not have ever been taught. Bringing yourself in line with who you want to be is one of the things therapy can do for you.

Does this sound familiar? Motherhood isn't what you expected? You feel constantly overwhelmed. You keep thinking, "It shouldn't be this hard." You worry that something bad will happen if you're not constantly alert. Your mind never stops - it's a constant loop of planning, worrying, and managing everyone else's needs. You feel emotionally disconnected from your partner. Crying for no reason. You love your kids, but sometimes you just want to run away for a day - or a week - and not be touched or needed by anyone. You experienced a traumatic birth that you can't get past. The NICU looms large. You are holding it together. Barely.

My ideal client would be where you find yourself trying to hold it together, and you may not look for help until a situation has gotten worse and its almost a crisis. That situation will significantly affect your life, and you will hit a breaking point. This might be self-esteem, anxiety, depression, adjusting to life changes, codependency, grief, health issues, or just feeling stuck. It's hard to ask for help but here you are, and what you thought might work is not working any more. You would find yourself in my office feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, confused but feeling like you had taken the first step to finding HOPE.

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.
