As of 9/2024, I am not accepting individual clients, only those interested in Group Therapy. Don't run quite yet. Could I first invite you to ask yourself a few things? Do you crave authenticity and connection? Are you wrestling with symptoms of depression or anxiety? Are you going through a tough time and could use some support? Might you benefit from a supportive community while you work on your life goals? Do you feel stuck in individual therapy? Are you aware of the extensive research showing Group to be effective, cost efficient, and equivalent to individual therapy?

Are you a Black woman healing from the trauma of sexual abuse, sexual assault, or growing up in a dysfunctional family? Are you the change maker, setting out to resolve generational curses by breaking from "the way we've always done things"? Historically Black women have been the rock of the family, sometimes with devastating results. Chronic stress and unresolved trauma can cause physical symptoms like high blood pressure and emotional struggles with depression, self-worth, and boundaries. Add to that the cultural expectation that we should stay in a child's place and not air our dirty laundry, and it's a heavy burden to bear.

Licensed and Accepting FL & NC telehealth clients. Hi friends! My name is Sherree Turcott and I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW). Do you get triggered and feel like you over-react to your children, partners, and family members? Do you feel like it is impossible to start and complete basic daily tasks? Are you tired of feeling like the people in your life take advantage of you? My path to becoming a therapist started in the classroom. After a few years of being an elementary school teacher, I recognized that I focused more on my students’ socioemotional education and their overall well-being than I did on academics.

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.
