The ability to reflect inward, gain self-awareness, and understand how our experiences have shaped our beliefs about ourselves, others, and the world around us, is paramount to our growth as individuals. Understanding oneself and what shapes our behaviors is a key component to deepening self-compassion and living life authentically. I am a client-centered therapist who strives to create a collaborative relationship with my clients. I believe that you are the expert in your own life, and therefore, it is essential that you feel safe to voice your needs, emotions, and thoughts in the therapy space.

You are coming into therapy because there is something you are having difficulty working out and you need help from someone else.Therapy is a way to contact parts of you that are disconnected. This can be described in terms of an authentic self and untrue self. As we grow up we learn to make creative adjustments in order to adapt to our environment and we may keep our thoughts and emotions to ourselves. I am a good listener but not a silent partner, because what is important in therapy is the therapeutic relationship that develops between the two of us.

At the individual level, I also offer support for more personal concerns, including anxiety and depression, as well as difficult life circumstances such as processing a recent loss, divorce or past trauma.

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.
