I am now scheduling half-day (3 hours) EMDR intensives for highly motivated clients who want condensed treatment. These days it's so easy to numb yourself and avoid dealing with issues that affect your well-being, your self-esteem, and your relationships. If you're feeling exhausted by this charade and you are ready to start peeling back the layers that are obscuring your true self, I can provide a soft place to land as you dig deep and heal. My curiosity and expertise can help you identify the mindset issues and past wounds that need to be healed to help you move toward self-acceptance, authenticity, and self-confidence.

Talking about sex can be very uncomfortable and feel awkward. It can be made worse by issues with our pelvic floor or reproductive system. This can leave you feeling disconnected from your body and/or your partner. Maybe you're noticing that you're avoiding sex or having sex that is painful or not pleasurable. Confusion, loneliness, shame, frustration are all common emotions that show up when we want something different in our sex lives but don't know how. I specialize in helping individuals and couples struggling with sex and pelvic floor dysfunction reconnect to themselves and each other through somatic and sex based therapies.

The decision to seek therapy is often made when life's challenges have become overwhelming. Perhaps for a time you felt outside help wasn't necessary, that you were fine on your own, that once some specific concern was resolved then everything would be fine. But the stress kept building, your life seemed less and less under your control. And while therapy still seemed a little scary, you decided it was time to try something different before things got any worse. I am here to listen to you, to work with you as you discover your natural strengths and learn to apply them so that you can grow into a life of fulfillment and hope.

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.
