It can be hard to imagine talking to a stranger about your deepest feelings and life experiences. Some of us can treat our own friends with more sensitivity than we can summon up for our own pain, and for the way we react to difficulties we encounter. Self-empathy and self-nurturing can be learned even as an adult.

I have been a psychotherapist for over 35+ years and I can humbly share two truths about myself and therapy: I’m still learning and growing as a person and professional and in order for one to affect change you need human connection. I believe therapy is a partnership, a sacred relationship between two people; it’s a trusting bond like no other where authentic contact is made, masks are slowly removed and the client is seen for their pure and beautiful essence. My clients learn to accept themselves for who they were born to be, unlearning damning messages, peeling away the expectation of others and discovering their own true nature

Starting a therapeutic journey can feel overwhelming. If you have cared for or been close to someone with a mental illness you may be experiencing anxiety, depression, or relationship challenges stemming from these complex dynamics. As your therapist I will create a warm and safe space for you to build coping skills, feel empowered, and work to set healthy boundaries with others. My training in Bowen’s systems theory will allow you to explore patterns in your life from your upbringing and understand how they continue to impact you today.

Are you or your adolescent looking for the strength and courage to address difficult life situations? Do you not know where to begin? I know it can be difficult to ask for help. However, once that first step is taken with the right therapist, who appreciates and respects you as an individual, positive attainment of your goals can be achieved. I approach my work as a therapist with empathy, acceptance, compassion, and mutual respect. When working with adolescents I make it a requirement to involve the parents and provide them with frequent updates on their child.

As a therapist, I strive to be genuine and to create a nonjudgmental environment in which clients can be open and feel accepted. Therapy is a collaborative effort in which I work together with my clients to understand their challenges, identify their obstacles, and set realistic goals to bring about meaningful change in their lives. Therapy is not "one size fits all" and I utilize a style that integrates cognitive-behavioral, interpersonal, and dynamic interventions, tailoring treatment to the individual needs of each client. Life is challenging and sometimes we can all use a little extra support.

Are you looking to cultivate a deeper sense of calm? Are you finding that pervasive anxiety has taken control of your life? Are your child's anxious and avoidant behaviors creating an impossible dynamic in your family? In a time where we are expected to perform our roles, whatever they may be, with precision and speed, and our children are smothered with the unrelenting demands of this increasingly chaotic world, anxiety can become a constant and undesired companion. The time and attention it takes to gain greater understanding of ourselves and our children can feel overwhelming and out of reach.

I have a very integrative practice, using EMDR with Mindful Awareness in the treatment of trauma. Whether you suffer with symptoms of PTSD, depression, anxiety, or poor self esteem, the EMDR process will help you to go beyond alleviating symptoms and help you to find a greater sense of purpose and satisfaction in the direction of your life. As part of an integrative wellness center, I teach meditation as well as provide psychotherapy. As consciousness evolves and healing occurs, I will help you see how the crisis becomes a doorway for growth beyond what you could have imagined.

Trying to pick the right therapist can be a challenge. You can think of our first meeting more like a conversation, where we will go over what you are experiencing and how I can help you materialize your goals, values, and priorities. I offer a safe, comfortable, and compassionate space where we can explore how to reduce your suffering and help you get to where you want to be. For years, I have made it my purpose to help others resolve their internal pain and heartache. Although I tailor my approach for each client, I tend to consistently utilize EMDR, psychodynamic, gestalt, DBT, and narrative theoretical orientations.

I believe that a person seeking treatment is generally having trouble with either handling emotions or with dealing with a significant person in his life. As we collaborate, patients gain insight into how their history gets acted out in relationships. They experience relief of symptoms that are tied to early messages that invalidated their feelings. In working with children and their parents or couples, my goal is to facilitate more effective conflict resolution through creating safety in their interactions and an increased ability to truly hear each other on a "feelings" level. My style is very interactive.

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.
