Along with being a Licensed Professional Counselor, I have been a Professional School Counselor for 14 years. I have experience working with school aged children all the way to late adulthood. My approach seems to work very well with a variety of life challenges, especially anxiety, depression, grief and loss, stress, and life transitions. My approach to goal setting is always from a collaborative approach. This will occur naturally as we get to know one another and discuss what we both feel will be the most beneficial for healthy emotional growth.

Asking for help can be difficult. We often think "I should be able to handle my problems myself". However, everyone needs support at some point in their lives. A major crisis, a life transition, loss, job stress, relationship problems, emotional needs, our past interfering with our present, or everyday stressors become too much to deal with alone. We forget our strengths and become isolated, depressed, angry, or make poor choices.

I work with women, men, and children over the age of 8 who deal with everything from ADHD, anxiety, past trauma, and life transitions to grief and loss, depression, and ongoing feelings of unhappiness. In my previous career as a special education teacher, I was moved by the overwhelming need of both the children and parents when faced with special needs, inspiring me to also become a registered play therapist. I am familiar and comfortable working with people of all ages who have physical and emotional characteristics that require unique strategies for coping.

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.
