Silence only strengthens shame's grip, fostering a cacophony within that echoes the weight of an internal critic, knotted thoughts, and lingering childhood trauma. The struggle manifests in overwhelming ways, saturating your life, preventing you from moving beyond the echoes of the past and finding solace in the face of pressures. Relentless thoughts persist, accompanied by tumultuous emotions that surface uninvited and unwelcome. It's a challenge to silence mistakes from echoing as sources of shame, leaving you questioning how your life has become entangled in such chaos, weighted under the pressure of professionalism.

The most important aspect of therapy is the working relationship between the client and therapist. Through being genuine and building trust, I work to create a relationship that allows my clients to feel comfortable being open and honest. I meet my clients where they are and spend time understanding who they are and what they need. As a clinical psychologist, I work to individualize treatment based on who my client is, as well as incorporating research-based techniques to help them reach their goals. Many clients who have had previous therapy experiences describe our work together as what they imagined and hoped therapy to be.

Feeling stressed, anxious or overwhelmed? Many of the individuals I work with are struggling with unwanted thoughts, excessive worrying, often feeling depressed and/or struggling with not having a sense of control (or fear of uncertainty). They are often putting themselves down, experiencing poor self-esteem, not feeling like they are enough and/or placing high expectations on themselves or even others. They also may be struggling with adapting to multiple changes and/ or stressors going on in their life, balancing the work/school/life stress, or simply need help with improving expressing their feelings.

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.
