Currently on medical leave until January 2024. Considering therapy is the first step in changing your life. We often imagine our lives being lived differentially but until we make those steps to change we continue down the path of cycling through pain, discomfort, and often instability. We all have in us the ability and capability to make both cognitive and behavioral changes. Sometimes this is complicated due to depression, grief, anxiety, trauma etc. Allow me to help you through your journey to wellness with the different forms of therapy I offer and interventions as needed, even if it is just someone to talk to.

Life can present us with some pretty bad circumstances; abuse, loss, assault, bad relationships, violence, military combat, bullying, and otherwise what we would refer to as "trauma", happens to so many of us. We are not defined by how others have treated us, or by what has happened to us, though. It's my goal to help all of my clients realize the truth, and to live life as it was intended for them, without their past continuing to negatively affect them. It would be an honor for me to be a part of the process for you, to help you get your life back.

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.
