You found me! I know it can be hard to take the steps to connect with a therapist. How can I help you? Do you find yourself having difficulty navigating your thoughts and feelings? Do you struggle with feelings of anxiety? Are you struggling to navigate day-to-day stressors, life transitions, challenging relationships, upsetting circumstances, or feel held back by past traumas? Past trauma can also lead to negative cognitions or unhelpful scripts we develop about ourselves (i.e. "I'm not good enough," "I'm not lovable," "I can't trust anyone," "I'm not safe," etc.). I am here to offer you support and develop effective coping skills.

Is anxiety, grief, or past trauma beginning to affect every facet of your life? Are you feeling lonely and desperate to be understood? Maybe you are experiencing crippling physical symptoms: panic attacks, difficulty breathing, and racing thoughts. Perhaps you’re feeling the pressure from those around you to be “done” grieving, when in fact the loss you’ve experienced has changed you forever. If you are a member of the LGBTQ+ community, the influence of your identity on your personal relationships can be especially hard. No matter what you are feeling today, one thing is for sure: you’re ready for some relief.

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.
