All too often, when we experience painful thoughts, feelings or sensations we react in ways that are self-defeating and self-destructive. Over time, these habitual reaction patterns can manifest in a variety of ways such as anxiety, depression, phobias, disordered eating or addiction. Psychotherapy can help you with the immediate problem or situation you are facing. More importantly, it can help you gain insight as to the root cause of your emotional pain, to come to a place of self-acceptance and self-compassion, and to adopt positive coping skills in order to live a more engaged and meaningful life.

Waitlist for new clients
Your life has not turned out like you'd imagined. Having children was an inevitable, unquestioned part of your plan. Perhaps you've been trying for years and are now grappling with the idea of ending the TTC journey without a baby. Maybe you never got the chance to try because of life circumstances or health. Perhaps you've been dealing with the profound grief that comes with miscarriage or perinatal loss. This new reality likely seems impossible to believe, let alone accept. It is difficult to figure out how to move forward and if a life of meaning without children is possible.

Are you struggling with issues such as perfectionism or people pleasing? Perhaps it feels like very few things are in your control? I understand, you try so hard to do your best, but your attempts do not feel like they are working. Do you find yourself preoccupied with your weight, shape, and control? Your relationship with food is strained and it is starting to get complicated. I understand the challenges you maybe experiencing. I wonder if you have been struggling with other difficulties, such as trauma, that are hard to verbalize. You do not need to struggle in your own.

The journey to parenthood doesn't look anything like you had expected. You never imagined it would be this difficult to get pregnant. Perhaps you feel like your life is on hold as you wait with each passing month. Maybe you have been navigating a maze of appointments, medications, and uncertainties, all while grappling with the profound emotional toll of longing for a child. Frustration, disappointment, and grief become unwelcome companions on this journey, overshadowing moments of joy and resilience. It's difficult to find other people who understand, and perhaps you feel isolated, anxious and alone.

Therapy shouldn't feel like a chore. While it might sometimes be hard to hear what is discussed in therapy, overall you should leave feeling like you've gained something useful or even transformative. Over time, you should feel you are getting stronger, more resilient and have shed layers of fear and anxiety. Of course this process can be overwhelming at times and you might not always progress on the timeframe that you thought you would, but when therapy goes well, you should feel more settled and more clear about your life. You should gain understanding about yourself and others and have a renewed sense of purpose and passion

Are you constantly feeling overwhelmed, on the verge of burnout, and struggling to keep up with the demands of your career and personal life? You have tried all the remedies, such as lavender oil, white noise, and relaxation, but nothing seems to be working. You want restful sleep because you understand the importance of sleep and well-being in leading a fulfilling life.

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.
