I provide traditional talk therapy as well as Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) to both men and women.
Everyone thinks you have it all together. You appear confident, happy and organized. You seem to have a good life. But your reality is that you're overwhelmed and you may feel like you're barely keeping it together. That voice inside of you is constantly telling you that you aren't good enough. You probably feel like you're taking care of everyone else all of the time - but never yourself. Maybe you've even been drinking too much to try to take the edge off sometimes. What you've tried to feel better doesn't seem to help. All you know is that you're exhausted, unhappy and don't know what to do anymore. Does this sound like you?

Most people enter therapy looking to change some aspect of their lives. Some people know exactly how they want their lives to be different and simply need help developing skills to achieve their goals. Other people may need to spend more time determining exactly what type of change they need.

We are all more alike than we are different. We grow into ourselves as a result of our relationships and our experiences. We want to live our best lives with a sense of meaning, purpose and belonging. Yet, for many, the challenges of everyday life; work, school, family, relationships, decisions about what to do or what direction to take, feel overwhelming and unmanageable. Therapy is a collaborative process; a journey toward increased understanding and insight.

Life is full of challenges, both expected and unexpected; and although not always easy to seek out, we all need support. I strive to work with clients in making their healing journey a collaborative and supportive process. Each person already holds many strengths, and during this journey, they will learn to lean into these as we work towards their goals.

I am currently working towards my Perinatal Mental Health Certification (PMH-C) in order to optimize my ability to support women through this phase of life.
Melinda Gates said, "Empowering women changes the world," and I couldn't agree with her more. Though I enjoy working with various populations, my passion is supporting the unique journeys of women. Women's issues and matrescence (the process of becoming a mother) are oftentimes overlooked, misinterpreted, and minimized. This is why I focus my work on empowering women to better understand their experiences, unabashedly identify their needs, and to more authentically express themselves. I am also enthusiastic about working with those who suffer from panic attacks.

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.
