Do you ever find yourself thinking, isn’t life supposed to be more beautiful than this? Maybe you are navigating a big life transition and feel lost. Does your anger get the best of you and often find you say things you later regret? Does it seem like you have no problem meeting others' needs but fail to be reliable to your own? Are relationship troubles consuming you? Is your child struggling in school or too sad to go? Or maybe you can’t remember the last day you and your child didn’t have an argument. I am passionate about helping individuals find security within themselves to find security in other aspects of their lives.

My name is Laura Neuscheler. I am a counselor with over 20 years experience working with adolescents & their families. A few years ago I retired from my “day job” as a high school counselor. My practice is dedicated to empowering teens and their families to realize their emotional potential. My treatment method is direct, solution-focused, utilizes humor where appropriate and is always empathic. Adolescence is a difficult time for everyone. Some teens go through this period with barely a problem, others seem to experience great difficulty. Many families at some time during these years need help.

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.
