I am a licensed clinical social worker and have been in practice for 25 years. I work with adolescents and adults doing individual as well as family and couple therapy. I use different modalities of treatment but mainly focus on cognitive behavioral therapy which teaches people how to identify the connection between their thoughts, feelings and behaviors as a way of making changes in their lives. I believe people who are motivated to change are capable of doing so given the right tools.

CLINICAL PRACTICE: In 30-plus years of practice, there simply isn't anything left that I haven't worked with.

Allow me to help guide you through your own personal resolution by enhancing your skills, strengths and supports. I will use whatever constructs work for each unique personality, but am heavily based in cognitive-behavioral work. An email may get the quickest response.

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.
