Sometimes we reach a point in our lives where we just want to feel better. The stress of daily life combined with the complications of relationships and our own histories can make it difficult to feel connected, whole, and peaceful. When we experience trauma and/or ongoing stress in life we develop habits, beliefs, and cycles that sometimes cease to serve us any longer.

While there are many excellent therapists, the question of best fit is vital. My therapeutic approach honors suffering and difference. Therapy is a place for healing through words, stories, and a trusting relationship. Through this relationship new narrative possibilities arise, as empathy and compassion open a path for creative collaboration. The goal of this approach is relief from old narratives and relationship patterns that no longer serve you. As you develop greater insight and awareness, you gain the freedom to make more intentional decisions about how and who you want to be.

My specialty is working with adolescent girls (ages 18 and up) and women.
Making the decision to reach out to a psychologist is a courageous one and I understand the vulnerability required to make that phone call. As a psychologist, I try to create a collaborative environment where I help to empower my clients to develop a deeper understanding and awareness of themselves. I take on a more active role and do more than ask how something makes you feel. I can provide objectivity, support, feedback in a nonjudgmental manner, and skills to be able to tackle a variety of concerns in life.

All I want to do each day is to help clients learn who they truly are and help them let go of the negative beliefs and stories that define them. It is, without a doubt, my purpose here.

Whether it's trauma, ADHD, Anxiety, Depression, BiPolar, OCD or other challenge, we will work at your foundation, not focus solely on rearranging surface daily thoughts.

Feeling safe to express yourself in a nonjudgmental environment is an important piece to therapy. Finding your therapist is a difficult personal decision. Your therapist should encourage you to explore your honest thoughts and feelings, since the exploration can help lead to life changes. Your therapist should encourage self exploration and assist in identifying beneficial life changes, as well as ways to change negative outlooks on life. While academics and credentials are important, therapy revolves around an intimate relationship, and the relationship is the key to making changes.

When will it be time for you to be Happy? We so often put off our own needs to care for others. We do so telling ourselves it will get better around the corner...but around that corner, there's always more to take care of. Your needs fall to the bottom of the list. We can worry about arranging and planning so that nothing will be out of place and no one will be unhappy. Even fun things become a source of stress and tension. It feels impossible to keep everything on track and everyone happy.

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.
