Are you a caretaker experiencing depression, stress or resentment towards your loved one? Have you been actively using substances or had a recent slip in use after years of being in recovery? Do you find yourself engaging in emotional eating or caloric restriction? Are you in need of emotional support after terminating a pregnancy? Has something occurred that caused you to start anew? Do you need a supportive ear that will listen and allow you to express your thoughts and feelings? Are you seeking skills to help you cope with everyday issues? Asking for help can be scary, but trying to go it alone can be even scarier.

What if constant exhaustion was optional? What if you could say “no” and not feel bad? What if taking up more space in your relationship could actually make it healthier? What if “Because I can handle it … I’ll be okay” was NOT a good enough reason to push yourself to the limit? What if you didn't ALWAYS have to work twice as hard (at work and at home)? What if taking time out for yourself, actually lead to you having MORE time in the end? What if you could find more peace and rest without the people around you taking your advice, or finally working WITH you to solve problems?

It is your time to live intentionally. Enough of the self-blame, guilt-shame, and disorganized thinking. It is time to take control of your thoughts and actions by making yourself accountable and learning the necessary tools to grow and glow. You are not just here by coincidence. You are clearly someone who sees enough value in yourself that you want to learn the necessary tools to elevate. There are days we feel less than or have major highs and lows. Think of therapy as an investment in yourself. Everything from more self-care, self-love, acceptance, and even forgiveness. This is a place to grow not just merely exist.

My ideal client is someone who makes that phone call to ask for help and is ready to begin clarifying goals to improve some aspect of their life. Issues that they may be facing include self-esteem issues, depression, anxiety, stress, trauma, lack of coping and communication skills, family dynamics, grief, etc. The most important thing for me to do to help my clients with all their needs is to provide a safe environment, build rapport with them by making them feel comfortable, and assisting them in prioritizing what they want to work on.

I love to work with individuals who are willing to explore the possibility that you can heal from grief and loss. Recovery from loss is accomplished by discovering and completing all undelivered communications that accrue in relationships. We are all advised to "let go" and "move on" after losses of all kinds. Most of us would do that if we knew how. I enjoy teaching people how. I am a Certified Grief Recovery Specialist trained by the Grief Recovery Institute specifically in the recovery of grief.

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.
