Do you feel that you are all alone and no one will ever understand what you are going through? We all need extra support and to know that we are not alone. I hope to foster a therapeutic relationship where you feel nurtured, respected, and know that your thoughts and feelings matter. My approach to therapy is strengths-based. I treat the whole person and do not have a one-size-fits-all approach. I believe each individual is unique and can overcome any obstacle. I practice a non-judgmental and empathetic approach and support individuals as they confront their issues and help them realize their unique strengths.

Are you struggling with current and past life stressors, maintaining healthy interpersonal relationships, or feeling unfulfilled? Wellness is inclusive of the mind body and spirit. Life and the many hats that we wear challenge our wellness. It can be difficult to navigate life without knowing how to properly identify what you are experiencing and feeling. Perhaps you are feeling “stuck” in life and don’t know how to get yourself back on kilter. My goal is to help bring into awareness traumas, feelings, and thoughts by acknowledging the influence of varying relationships and systems in your life so that you can heal.

I believe that you are more than a diagnosis, disorder or disability. I would like to work with clients who are open to explore their history, make connections to the present, and prepare for the future. My ideal client is willing to be open and honest during the process of therapy, and use the safe space as a way to learn and grow. I would like to collaborate with individuals who are open to be challenged and do the work outside of therapy that will help them commit to life-long changes. As a self-proclaim foodie, I am also looking for clients who have interests in food and how our food consumption affects our mood and behavior.

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.
