Hello, and welcome to my practice. Even though the pandemic is over, most of us continue to feel the need to talk to someone, whether the issue is a "big" issue, or a "small" issue. I like to say, "bad is bad no matter how big or small", in recognition of the fact that self-judgment can sometimes hinder us from seeking consultation. If you are feeling the need to make a connection, please consider reaching out to me.

Desert Insight is a group of licensed clinicians who speak English, Spanish & Spanglish! If you don't know where to start, or words to describe what you feel, we know that seeking help can feel scary, especially if no one in your circle "goes to therapy". Please know you're not alone - we are here to help. We work with our clients to identify how past experiences and current mindsets may be affecting relationships, jobs, health and overall quality of life. This includes 'talk therapy' and also EMDR which is different from regular therapy but it can be especially helpful for trauma, phobias, addiction, depression and anxiety.

Female Therapists

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.
