Let’s turn those mountains into mole hills. Often in life we are stuck and can’t move forward because something has gotten in our way. The finish line is in sight, but we don’t know how to get there. Is that you?

I specialize in working with individuals and couples during the perinatal phase of life. Many of us are sold the idea of a "village" and often feel discouraged and isolated to discover the village we thought would appear does not readily arrive, especially at such an incredibly rewarding and challenging time in our lives. My goal is to help clients navigate this path and discover how to incorporate being a parent into their identity, maintain their relationships, and acknowledge their experience. You are not alone, there will be a village, and I'll support you while you put yours together.

Often making the decision to seek professional help is not an easy one. I understand and respect the difficulties that individuals and families face coming to a therapist; whether it is for the first time, or other clinicians and modalities have been tired before. I do not believe in a "one treatment fits all approach" and use different approaches to work on interpersonal skills development, coping skills training, relationships, parenting, anxiety and depression management, and personal growth. I enjoy working with clients of all ages, who are motivated to make changes to meet their own personal treatment goals.

I enjoy working with the college aged population up to those in their 50's where we often explore the impact of childhood experiences on present day functioning, how to promote supportive relationships through communication skills and boundary implementation, and work on strengthening your sense of self to feel confident and empowered. Navigating life transitions, promoting sexual well-being, exploring spirituality or adversity to it, and engaging in premarital work with couples are also topics that I enjoy assisting with.

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.
