I enjoy working with individuals who are experiencing some of the most challenging transitions of their lives. This might look like recovering after trauma, deconstructing from religion, working through grief and loss, navigating life after divorce, blending families, receiving a painful diagnosis, or opening up to your true gender and/or sexual identity. We are told that "life is hard", and often we are led to feel that our challenges of living are ours to carry alone. I am here to help carry the weight and together find ways to lighten the burden and strengthen yourself.

Life can bring many challenges and struggles, which can often be difficult to cope with on your own. As a fellow runner, I know the therapeutic benefits of running. Running can bring healing, but sometimes a professional is needed to offer outside perspectives and expertise to help you function at your best. Sometimes life can get in the way of running or running can get in the way of life. Running can be a great time to think about life and contemplate changes, which is why I combine therapy with running or walking. The combination of mental and physical health can approach healing in a non-traditional way to help you succeed.

Understanding the self is the first step toward change. Through compassion, reflection and skill development one has the opportunity to remove obstacles in the form of beliefs, mobilize one's inner resources, reduce suffering and create a more meaningful life. I have worked with adults who have survived trauma/abuse, struggled with problems in mood and thought and experienced self-worth injuries.

I know that life is not always easy and it can be even more difficult when you don’t feel right mentally. Sometimes it just takes a trained listener to help you cope with and heal from the things that keep us stuck. I love being that person for others. I have been a practicing therapist since 2014. I have worked with children, adolescents, and adults. My primary work has been working in the school with children and adolescents. I bring knowledge of both the school system and the stressors that children and adolescents deal with at school on a daily basis.

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.
