Are you struggling with body image and feel like you have an internal battle that no one can see? Do you sometimes feel like you are "stuck" emotionally and need help to keep moving forward. It is difficult to feel seen and understood when struggling with an eating disorder and when struggling with the pain of past traumas. My work with eating disorders and body image is conducted through a Health at Every Size (HAES) lens that provides a safe growing environment to heal.

I like that I can provide therapy to those who would generally not seek help. The stigma attached can be a deterrent to good mental wellness as well as cultural conditioning, tradition, and limited access. It is important for the therapist to understand the cultural language being spoken even before a word is uttered. When you feel understood, you feel empowered. I offer a safe space without judgment. Welcome to my place! I am a trauma-focused therapist with extensive training and experience treating persons with PTSD, anxiety, depression, formerly incarcerated persons, women's issues, conflict resolution, and life coaching.

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.
