The teenage years are tough... maybe now more than ever. Trauma, grief, stress, self-doubt, and uncertainty of the future all need a safe place to unload.

Transitions and changes in life can come with increased stress, anxiety and fear, but it also comes with the opportunity to grow and learn. I am proud to have my professional experience leading me to support teens and young adults through life's transitions and learning the world and themselves.

Do you ever think, "I can't take this anymore!"? Are you struggling with making decisions, sleeping, short temper, or avoidance of people or things?

The ache and overwhelm of unresolved attachment trauma is not something anyone is meant to move through alone. If you're struggling to make sense of a partner's infidelity, the loss of a loved one through death or separation, or how you and your partner ended up not only turning away from each other but turning against each other, know you can not only survive this season, but find purpose, healing, and peace again. My training in Gottman Method Couples Therapy, EMDR, and DBT allows me to provide compassionate, evidence-based care to those looking to stop merely coping and start truly living.

Daily routines and simple tasks can sometimes feel like a power struggle with children. You have tried everything to only experience temporary or no success. Life doesn't stop for tantrums, where giving up and giving in seems easier so you can get out the door. Parent-Child Interactive Therapy PCIT benefits families by acquiring skills to increase positive interactions and ability to regulate emotions when facing stressors and challenges. I enjoy helping parents regain confidence in themselves as daily routines become easier and your child builds trusting, healthy boundaries. PCIT treatment, generally, is best for kids ages 2-7yrs.

When your primary relationship is difficult, it impacts every aspect of your life. You can't focus as well at work, you become short and snappy with your children and/or others, you can't sleep, you stop eating or eat too much. It can feel so threatening when someone you care about doesn't seem to care about you, or when you wonder if you even care about them anymore. All of these feelings are normal in relationships but they don't have to last forever. If you allow them to push you to growth, you can have the relationship you've always craved.

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.
