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!

I am a multicultural sensitive counselor, specializing in couples therapy, grief counseling, and women’s trauma.
Many people struggle with living a peaceful, satisfied, fulfilled life; existing as oppose to living. Living consist of being one’s “best self,” with best being defined by the individual. Although, biological, traumatic, and negative experiences may encourage self-defeating behaviors and thoughts, such experiences are not who a person is. Counseling presents a challenging journey through such experiences to discovering and understanding one’s self to increase one’s quality of life.

Waitlist for new clients
Currently accepting new clients ages 6+ for individual and family therapy- I enjoy working with people who are experiencing challenges with life stressors, anxiety, depression, trauma, bipolar disorders and substance use disorders. Experiencing any of these can leave you feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, and disconnected. It can feel impossible to find a way out on your own. Many people find that when they try to reach out for help that they can’t connect with anyone who actually takes the time to listen and understand. I believe that taking a collaborative approach and staying focused on what matters to you is the key.

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.
