We often forget, or are unable to provide ourselves ample space to take a moment and reflect on what we are experiencing throughout our development. We live disconnected from the messages our bodies communicate: through the tightness in our chest; the manner in which we respond to our partner; the late nights spent tossing and turning in bed. Allowing oneself the space to confront those messages enables one to confidently navigating your day to day experiences.

The brain, like the body, has a way of healing itself when provided the environment it needs to do so. I offer a calm and nurturing space for us to develop curiosity and capacity for change together.

Whether you are looking for a specific change within yourself or seeking understanding in a broader sense, I will provide a warm and empathic environment to explore these issues. My style balances serious reflection with moments for humor and connection.

Therapy clarifies what has and hasn't worked in one's life. Together we will find a way to make your desired changes, so you can live a more fulfilling and authentic life. I provide a compassionate and honest environment in which you can feel heard and deeply understood. Guiding clients to discover their truths is, in large part, how I see my role, throughout which feelings around intimacy, loss, shame, and anger are often central themes. Couples counseling, addiction, divorce, co-parenting, sexual identity and sexual dysfunction issues are some of my specialties.

Life is an exercise in the Unexpected. Often, it is when all is seemingly in-tact, that you find yourself feeling overwhelmed, anxious, less connected or struggling to find meaning. You want to be present, find ease and experience joy, but anxiety, life changes, trauma or relationship-struggles keep getting in your way. Despite your best efforts, it feels like you have lost the way to feeling connected and truly present to enjoy the simple day-to-day moments. All pains are growing pains, and this pivotal moment is an opportunity to gain access to the life you deserve. I am here to help.

I believe that as a therapist it is an important part of my job to demystify therapy. Many of us have preconceived notions of what therapy is based on movies and pop culture (think: someone lying back on a couch, talking while an abstract observer takes notes). Therapy with me is not like that. It is an active dialogue where we are discussing the issues that the person is facing. I bring my full and genuine self to the process, listen closely to what they are saying and what their goals are, and ask questions to help the person see connections and themes that help them gain new perspectives.

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.
