Do you struggle with anxiety, depression or past trauma that affects your day to day? Do you feel disconnected from yourself and others around you? Do you wonder if you can somehow feel better? Now more than ever, people are feeling anxious, overwhelmed and uncertain about how to manage their careers, relationships and their lives. Pushing away your needs and not taking time for yourself can lead to long term challenges for your mind and body. I believe it shouldn't be so hard to live a better life.

Hablo español. דוברת עברית. Je parles Français. Healing can be a difficult journey, and if you are looking to work on trauma/ PTSD, grief, OCD or addiction, I am here to help. I work with clients (including first responders) to tailor therapy that works for them, affirming lifestyle values and utilizing various modalities to assist in the healing process (ERP, CBT, DBT, strength based therapy). Your past helped shape you, but it does not have to determine who you are or will be in the future. This is a marathon, not a sprint- let's do it together. Also available, assessments (VA, bariatrics, Autism and ADHD and immigration).

Managing life stressors & balancing relationships are common issues that humans struggle with today. We struggle to do it all & more often than not we wind up feeling burned out and/or checked out. We are existing instead of living. I view therapy as offering the opportunity to gain another perspective on life experiences & explore how to navigate them more effectively. Once we gift ourselves the opportunity to engage in therapy we become better equipped to function from a place of gratitude which automatically shifts us into a healthier state of mind.

I have been working as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor for almost 30 years. I began my career doing play therapy with young children. While I loved that, I discovered that there is so much more to be explored in therapy when working with a variety of age groups. Over the years I have worked with many different ages and populations and I feel as though I’ve learned from my clients as much as they have learned from me. I believe that the connection that you have with your therapist is the first step to meeting any goal. While I often take a direct approach with my clients, I also tell them, “my goals can’t be your goals."

“The world is your oyster.”  That's what my mom said as we held each other’s hands before I drove off to start my college life. Along with my newfound independence came feelings of insecurity that weighed down my confidence and drive. But, with healthy and patient support, I've made progress. We all need an advocate and safe space to help us process what is happening. If you are a rising, current, or recently graduated college or trade school student, I'm here for you.

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.
