Are you looking for support navigating your teens or twenties? Early adulthood is full of transition and expectations - this can be exciting and stressful. This stage of life often comes with unexpected curveballs and maybe some relationships that are challenging to manage. You need someone you can be genuine with, and someone who genuinely cares, to make the most of your time in therapy. Someone who knows how to offer support for what you're going through (who isn't your parents or best friend). I'm here for exactly that, to process these challenges and provide professional support in an environment that feels comfortable for you.

Life can be complicated. You may be managing a complex illness, adjusting to a new role as a parent, caring for a loved one, grieving a loss, or feeling stretched by modern life's demands. Therapy offers a place to slow down, sort through what you're carrying, and better understand your reactions, relationships, and needs. I work with teens and adults facing anxiety, stress, life transitions, and emotional overwhelm. My approach is relational, curious, and grounded in the belief that healing begins with feeling understood.

Not taking new clients at the moment.
Reaching out for help is often the hardest part, so good for you for starting the process! It is my goal to understand you as a person first and foremost, which will help me understand how best to help you as we continue our work. While I have been trained in DBT and CBT, my orientation is a bit more humanistic/Existential. I strive to build our therapeutic relationship on compassion, empathy, hard work, and a lot of laughing while we tackle the heavy stuff. The most important way we can build this is through a mutual trust with one another, which is a crucial component to change.

Many of the clients I work with are thoughtful, capable, and insightful, yet find themselves stuck in the same emotional or relational patterns. You may understand why something is happening, but still feel unable to shift it in a meaningful way. Therapy with me focuses on helping you move beyond insight and into lasting change. I specialize in working with individuals and couples who want to better understand the internal patterns that shape their relationships, decisions, and emotional lives.

I believe we all deserve to be heard, understood and supported as we navigate challenges in our lives and therapy can be a great place to receive that. My goal is to create an environment where you feel safe to be your truest self without judgement and that when you attend therapy, you feel a weight lifted with relief. I believe deeply the strongest tool in therapy is the relationship we develop together so taking time to understand you and what makes you who you are is my highest priority.

Loss and trauma come in all shapes and sizes. The death of a loved one, the loss of relationships, traumatic events, and various life changes (even ones that seem to be typical) can lead to feelings of intense sadness, confusion, anger, and anxiety. They can impact our day-to-day functioning, our relationships with others, our jobs, our sleep, and our overall wellbeing. Too often, problems we could manage or avoid in the past become barriers to living quality lives, and we're left feeling hopeless and alone.

In 20 years of witnessing adults/children within the therapeutic relationship, I am in awe of the strength and resiliency individuals show in the face of truly traumatic events. Over the years, I have built a level of expertise in understanding the role that the transpersonal plays in the healing process. I have examined clinically how the story we tell ourselves about an event dictates both the burdens & the strengths we assign to our "self." I welcome you to that process of discovery and healing as we partner on the human journey together.

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.
