I primarily work with teens, young adults, and women who want to overcome the stressors of everyday life and start feeling good again.
If you are reading this, chances are you're feeling stuck and you're looking for some guidance. I offer a strengths-based, client-centered approach to helping people figure out what's not working, and find their own unique solutions to feeling better. Some clients are interested in processing how past experiences are still affecting them. Some are simply looking for solutions to handle their current problems. In sessions driven by your own unique needs, I guide clients to move beyond their "stuck" place and feel more in control of their emotional lives.

Finding the right fit with a therapist can be challenging. I am a psychotherapist who excels at connecting with people and making them feel at ease. I'm known by my clients to be warm, engaged, humorous, direct and compassionate. I believe it is a privilege to sit with people who allow me to bear witness to their lives, stressors, and pain. I have great appreciation for the "and" that life often presents, and encourage clients to recognize and tolerate that we often experience conflicting emotions simultaneously. I approach therapy as an interactive process and enjoy working with people to develop a plan that works best for them.

Are you finding that you are turning outside yourself to help you feel better? Have you lost someone or something important to you? Has something traumatic happened? Sometimes people just need a professional to talk with because they do not want to burden family or friends with their troubles. Psychotherapy is an active process in an empowering and supportive environment that helps you define and reach goals of wellness or success. It can help you overcome fears, insecurities, cope with stress, make sense of past traumatic experiences, improve relationships, understand why things bother you, and end habits or addictions.

Our work together will be genuine & focused on your individual needs.

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.
