What if: You could change your life for the better? You had more access to your creativity and more tools to help you succeed? You could improve your relationships at home and at work? Stress, anxiety, depression, and limiting beliefs keep you stuck in unhealthy, unproductive patterns and prevent you from living the life you want to live. I offer experiential tools to help you explore your issues, identify and work through the blocks that get in the way, and find the tools and resources you need to move forward. Why analyze your dreams when you can live them?

You have been in therapy before and although helpful, you continue to struggle with your relationships and with your self-esteem. That nagging negative core belief (I'm not enough; I'm unlovable, etc.) you have about yourself is still there and won't go away. Past traumas (big or small) have left you feeling unsafe, unseen and misunderstood. You find you either overreact or underreact. Old thoughts/feelings, anxiety, worry, attachment issues, self-esteem or depression has you feeling stuck, and you want better for yourself and for those around you.

I have specialty training in perinatal mental health, women's health, chronic illness, memory loss and end of life care.
You’re so tired. And you’re tired of saying you’re tired. Especially after these exhausting COVID years. It’s so hard to turn your mind off from your worries and your endless to-do list. You’re overwhelmed, wondering when things will get easier. You provide so much care to others, but you get lost in the shuffle. Your temper flares easily. So much has changed in your life, and you wonder if you will feel like yourself again. Care work is incredibly hard and often invisible, and caring for yourself in the midst of that is even harder.

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.
