My name is Samantha E Golden. I am the owner of Canaltown Mental Health Counseling, PLLC located in the village of Brockport. As a counselor, and an advocate for families, I work closely with children/adolescents that are having a difficult time dealing with anxiety, depression, and trauma. Many are seeing peace in a volatile situation or are learning how to deal with intense emotions. Family changes can also affect children, so I use integrated arts and/or child centered play therapy to help children process the grief and loss of divorce/separation and to embrace change.

Many people go through challenging times and can feel “stuck” in their lives. But with hope, patience, and determination, this can change. People can find the light again in their dark times. We can learn to think and feel differently about ourselves and the world around us. We can learn ways to identify and use our inner strengths that we all have. We can learn to talk about our emotions that are normal and ways to tolerate stress when things are out of our control. These are just a few of many therapeutic approaches I use with clients and their diverse needs.

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.
