Everyone is experiencing unique challenges right now. Some are considering therapy for the first time. Reach out. Get the support you need. Times of stress can bring out ways of coping that are not useful or helpful, they can surface old wounds and patterns that are painful. Take the time and space you need to take care of yourself. Whether you just need to work on the anxiety related to your life right now or you want to finally get to the roots of "stuck" patterns, this is a good time to start.

Anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns are just a few of the challenges that threaten to overwhelm us. Unexpected loss, disappointing dreams, lonely relationships, and feelings of being less than or undeserving lead to questions like, “what am I doing wrong?” and “how did I get here?” Perhaps you feel like you’re doing everything right and it’s still not working. Carefully-controlled narratives mask messy, doubt-filled, anxiety-ridden moments. Maybe you even wonder, “Am I enough?”

Having anxiety can cause feelings of being out of control. Depression can cause almost physical pain. Sometimes, to feel more in control or less pain, we do things that we think are helping. But, is it? The heaviness of trauma can be frightening, frustrating, and even lonely! Everyone has a right to be heard and feel comfortable within their own space.

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.
