I have been in private practice for over 30 years and have specialized in the treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder as a result of childhood abuse (physical, sexual, emotional). I have recently semi-retired, and use Zoom to facilitate women's survivor groups. My groups are usually only 4 members at a time. I use education for understanding the effects of trauma, coping, inner child work, and sharing the trauma story to work toward processing the feelings that keep causing anxiety, depression or physical issues.

My ideal client is ready for change. They’ve had enough. They are most likely struggling with spiraling thoughts, relationship or interpersonal conflicts, depressive symptoms, navigating grief and loss, or have experienced trauma and PTSD. These struggles, whether they have been life-long or recently new, can be overwhelming and consuming in daily life. When you are seen, heard, and validated, personal growth starts to evolve. In order to heal, you have to feel.

I specialize in grief work. I am a spirit medium as well as a mental health counselor. I use EMDR (eye movement) to help clients experience Induced After Death Communication (IADC) with their loved ones. This helps facilitate the grief process and has a powerful impact on understanding how your loved one is still with you and continues to help you and shape your life. This is the most powerful tool I have found in grief work and I find it incredibly more helpful than even doing mediumship readings. Though both have their benefits.

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.
