Counseling is a place we can explore the many facets of being a woman and the many roles that we fill. This is a confidential space to confront challenges and general life issues that may crop up in life including but not limited to emotional eating, negative body image, stress and anxiety, poor self-esteem, depressed mood, and neglected self-care. We all face difficulties during our lives. And because of the many roles we, as women, are expected to fulfill, we often do not show our suffering to the outside world. But that's how we feel on the inside. I want you to know that there is nothing wrong with asking for help!

I see you. You're a mom who's doing her very best. You stretch your day to ensure that all who you love are taken care of. You get up early. You go to bed late. You sacrifice, ignore and take on so much. You feel sad, overlooked, unappreciated and just flat out alone. You're tired. When you look at all of the things that you have achieved, there is no real fruit from all of your labor. You know disappointment all too well, yet no one knows how you feel. You keep the secret from all, including yourself. I understand you. In so many ways, I am you. Wouldn't it be nice to be able to be free? Look no further! I can help you.

One of my favorite authors, Glennon Doyle, describes life as being both beautiful and brutal: 'brutiful.' While it is incredible on the one hand that us humans have the capacity to endure the many complexities of life, we can experience seasons in this brutiful life that feel more brutal than not. Whether you're reeling from a recent loss or life event that has you experiencing feelings that are completely new and upsetting to you or you are finally ready after much time and ambivalence to trust a counselor with long-held resentments towards self or others, I would be incredibly honored if you chose to invite me into the process.

I want to work with you to develop a positive sense of self and to heal from the past traumas associated with your parental and family unit. Life does not warn you about the adverse effects of having a parent that struggles with substance abuse or mental illness which can leave you to sort out the byproducts of your trauma.

I specialize in women's issues, such as learning how to establish parenting-work-life integration and bring emotional intimacy into relationships.
If a person experiences physical pain, seeking treatment is expected. To me, it is important to do the same when one experiences emotional and/or mental pain. Whether it be lack of balance, understanding a past/recent traumatic event, or navigating difficult relationships, life can leave us feeling off balance and disconnected from people and things that mean the most to us. Being able to help people heal from emotional pain, restore connections, and find joy in their lives is my greatest passion.

Women's Issues Therapists

How do you encourage a woman to go to therapy?

It’s helpful to express concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual may be suffering, and what effects it has on them, should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.

How can women prepare for therapy?

Women can prepare for therapy by being willing to talk about their past experiences and their private thoughts. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. Between sessions, it can be useful to write down notes about their reaction to a given event or how they felt at a particular time.

How long does therapy for women’s issues often last?

As with any type of therapy, sessions depend on the individual and the challenges they face. Therapy types like Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Prolonged exposure therapy (PET), and Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. In some cases, such as for women with eating disorders, residential treatment may be recommended for an individual who is judged to be at high risk of self-harm. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realized.

How can women overcome stigma around specific challenges in order to seek therapy?

Women dealing with domestic abuse, sexual assault, eating disorders, and any other number of troubles may feel a stigma around seeking help. It’s important to remember that these issues are not uncommon and there is no shame in getting help for them. Therapy is confidential, and women can talk about their experiences without fear of judgment. Seeking therapy can be a courageous and liberating act, and an important step toward healing and recovery.
