It’s hard navigating all that is expected of us in today’s world. It’s even harder if you’re struggling with things like relationship problems, ADHD symptoms, anxiety, and/or depression. Imagine a world where things feel more manageable. You have someone to talk to about your feelings on a regular basis, someone to help provide some guidance and skills to cope with the harder feelings. You have a safe and supportive space to vent about the problems causing you stress and you don’t feel judged for thinking and feeling the way you do. If you’re thinking you can relate to this, then please reach out to me.

I love a good conversation. So much can be learned from the give and take of sharing in a safe space. My clients mostly find themselves in a situation unimagined or unplanned for and want guidance. I have worked with all ages and in many settings. No matter the specifics, all are looking for change - resolution of grief and loss, relationship decisions, exploring unhealthy choices, having feelings that immobilize them and/or concerns about their future. I believe two heads really are better than one. I am here to support you in your journey, however long it takes and in whatever direction makes things better for you. Let's talk.

I specialize in relationship trauma, particularly cult recovery, with adults. I work with people who are gentle souls, have been called "too sensitive" and simply find this world hard to navigate. Our society sometimes turns sensitivity & thoughtfulness into pathologies. If you're empathic and contemplative, not only is there nothing wrong with you, we need more of you!

You deserve to feel strong, confident, and beautiful- but for many women and teens, anxiety, depression, or trauma can lead to feeling lost, misunderstood, or stuck in negative patterns. Maybe you aren't who you used to be and want to find your inner strength and confidence in order to build positive, healthy connections. You want to manage stress without feeling completely overwhelmed and find strategies that actually work to reduce sadness and anxiety. If you're looking for some guidance on how to get there, give me a call. My clients find success in learning to trust themselves and make choices they can feel good about.

Imagine a wheel on a vehicle functioning optimally when the wheel is balanced and aligned. Out of balance the ride can be quite bumpy like our lives when increased stress, psychological distress and pain reflect imbalances in our being as we travel chaotically on life's path. Difficult challenges can arise creating obstacles too difficult to navigate alone. Life transitions provide an opportune time to seek support to reevaluate personal goals and direction. My intention is to meet each individual in the moment assisting them to navigate a manageable path on their journey to reach optimum enjoyment and success in life.

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.
