We can all experience so much pain and suffering, when we feel alone or lost in something we are going through, especially when there can be many difficulties in life and often things we cannot control. It can be automatic to think that something is wrong with us, trap things inside, and go through it alone, not trusting others to handle us with kindness and care. I created ENA Counseling to provide personalized care with the needed warmth and attention to help you on your journey, respecting you as your own person, and supporting you with your goals on your terms.

My role is to help you explore and understand yourself better, gently challenge when needed and give you feedback that may help you to find your way. My hope is that after each session, you feel that your needs have have been addressed and that you leave with questions to explore or tools to try out. Change can be difficult and it is my hope that I may support you through it.

I am a Licensed Psychologist with over 20 years of experience. After many years of providing traditional talk therapy, I realized that true healing needed to incorporate both the mind AND the body. One method I use to help people reduce stress and regain balance in their lives is mindfulness meditation.

Life can be a wild ride with many ups and downs, causing additional stress and uncertain feelings. Maybe you are experiencing thoughts or feelings that you aren't quite sure what to do with, but they just don't feel "right". Or perhaps, you or a loved one experienced something a while back, maybe a few weeks ago or even several years ago, that might be influencing how you're doing today. I'd love to sit down with you and take a deeper look into who you are, what you are needing (whether you know it yet or not), and how I can help you get where you want to be.

How do you encourage a woman to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual may be suffering, and what effects it has on them, should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
How can women prepare for therapy?
Women can prepare for therapy by being willing to talk about their past experiences and their private thoughts. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. Between sessions, it can be useful to write down notes about their reaction to a given event or how they felt at a particular time.
How long does therapy for women’s issues often last?
As with any type of therapy, sessions depend on the individual and the challenges they face. Therapy types like Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Prolonged exposure therapy (PET), and Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. In some cases, such as for women with eating disorders, residential treatment may be recommended for an individual who is judged to be at high risk of self-harm. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realized.
How can women overcome stigma around specific challenges in order to seek therapy?
Women dealing with domestic abuse, sexual assault, eating disorders, and any other number of troubles may feel a stigma around seeking help. It’s important to remember that these issues are not uncommon and there is no shame in getting help for them. Therapy is confidential, and women can talk about their experiences without fear of judgment. Seeking therapy can be a courageous and liberating act, and an important step toward healing and recovery.
