I believe in the primary importance of the relationship between the client and therapist. Within this unique relationship, insight and healing can occur. I have a relational, psychodynamic orientation, and I utilize cognitive behavioral techniques to help people to structure the changes they want to make in their lives. I believe that people can heal from addiction and other unhealthy coping styles when they can identity and manage their emotions, cultivate rewarding connections with others, and develop a compassionate relationship with themselves.

Becoming a counselor was the last thing I thought I would ever do. Growing up broken I never thought God would use me to help bring restoration to others. After years of healing and also seeing so many injustices in the world God spoke to me about the brake down of families. Family can bring much joy but also pain, such as divorce, abuse, neglect, entanglement and more. Gods hope is to restore the Christian home. Often, we want a redo with where we came from but God wants to start the process of healing with you in order to not continue the generational sin, and pain. This is why I became a counselor. There are times God wont take

Early life experiences profoundly determine how we relate to ourselves and others long into adulthood. “Am I enough? Am I inherently broken? Am I real?” All of our stories begin the same way: as children seeking care, safety, and stability. Our greatest influences on our sense of self come first through our relationships with primary caregivers and then through others. Often suffering doesn’t start with us but is a cycle that is passed down. Our families at best not having these resources for themselves, and at worst passing onto us trauma that becomes an internalized part of our selves and our relationship patterns.

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.
