Hi! I'm Melissa, and I’m so excited to meet you. Reaching out for help isn’t easy, and it's an honor each day to support people through life’s challenges. We all struggle and sometimes the struggling can feel so out of hand. You just want to feel like somebody understands you, and you want to know that someone is in your corner no matter what. That’s where my role comes in, with the belief that you don’t need to go through this alone. The job is to show up as deeply committed to meeting you where you're at. This means that in this space, you won’t hear me telling you what you need to do, or have me rushing you through this process.

Finding a therapist today is hard. You may have a hundred questions. Do they have availability? Do they take my insurance? Will I and/or my child click with them? Therapists are not one size fits all. Sometimes you have to shop around a little bit. I want to make this as easy as possible for you, because asking for help should not be hard. My main goal is to help you as much as I can, and to create a non-judgmental space where you can speak freely about your life and any challenges you are facing.

Sometimes all that stands in the way of your happiness and peace of mind is the way you think about things. It's remarkable how our own thoughts can work against us creating anxiety, depression and an overall feeling of being trapped or stuck. There is great relief in the realization that the happiness you truly want and deserve is actually within your control! Whether your goal is diminishing your fears, gaining a better understanding of why you feel so sad, finally having the healthy relationship you have been yearning for, reducing stress, finding balance, or finally being able to answer that question, "What will make me happy?"

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.
