Are you having difficulties in your marriage or dealing with family conflict. Maybe you're struggling with anxiety, depression or dealing with trauma from your past. At some point in our lives we will experience emotional and psychological distress. YOU DON’T have to struggle alone. It is common for people to attempt to deal with stress on their own. People choose to do this because they don't understand the benefits of therapy. Therapy helps us understand why we act and respond in unhealthy ways. Therapy helps us get through difficult times and strengthen personal relationships. Therapy helps us process feelings and emotions.

Are you wanting to address past trauma or anxiety or depression or other mental health issues? I am here to help. Think about counseling as a tool to help you become the best version of you that you can be. I don't believe counseling has to be serious all the time, I like to use a twist of humor or light hearted conversaton too. There are no judgements here, just open conversations, thoughtful insights and maybe the occassional laugh. I would say my goal is to always meet the client where they are.

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.
