Life' s experiences can be both unexpectedly extraordinary or very painful, whether they are or not a result of our choices, both experiences can teach us lessons. The way we perceive these experiences can determine future outcomes. This is why is so important to identify the silver lining of each event, even if you don't see it at this time. Whether you want to process trauma, learning coping skills, or reduce/manage distressful symptoms, reauthoring the narrative we tell ourselves can place you as the commander of your boat in your own life. We only have one life, live it at its full capacity.

Waitlist for new clients
Overwhelmed? Overloaded? Maybe it's time to ask for help. Managing the uncertainty of work, struggling with the loneliness of remaining at home, transitioning back to work, feeling cut off from people and places that brought you comfort, can all trigger or worsen depression and anxiety and often leads to unhealthy coping habits such as isolating, overeating, drinking, internet use and more and can take a toll on your health, relationships and work performance. Probably you've tried on your own to feel better, my guess is that it has not worked. Or maybe has stopped working. Why wait for the world to change? Treatment works!

Are you searching for a counselor because it feels like your life is falling apart? Well, you are not alone. You may have experienced a difficult childhood and convinced yourself “It’s in the past…It was no big deal.” Except, it is a big deal because, the past affects our present. Shame convinces individuals that they are bad instead of understanding that something bad happened. Having a counselor that can listen with an open mind and heart, and validate your pain is a start. I too have been where you are. I know how to walk beside you in your journey of healing and restoration.

My main areas of focus are helping women with anxiety, depression, family/relationship Issues and prenatal/postpartum anxiety and depression.
Are depression, anxiety or adjusting to new life changes weighing you down? You do not need to go thru this alone. How you are feeling right now can be changed. Often, we are uncomfortable taking the first step to speak to someone about our personal issues. However once coming to therapy many people find it comforting having a safe place to speak their mind, with a therapist who is there to listen and guide them. Please email me directly from my website as I have not been getting my emails from Psychology Today!

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.
