You might appear to be holding it all together on the outside, but inside you feel like you’re about to all fall apart. Or maybe you’re wearing your emotions on your sleeve and others have told you that you don’t seem like yourself. Sometimes you find relief by coping the best way you know how, but it provides only temporary relief. You may be looking into therapy because you don’t know where else to turn, feeling like a burden to friends and family, or maybe even ashamed that you’re struggling. You’re not sure how to help yourself, but you are sure that you want to feel better.

Many of the clients I work with are dealing with anxiety, depression, or relationship issues. They may need help with learning to communicate effectively, manage their emotions better and learn healthy ways to cope with stress. We also set goals related to better time management, improving self-respect and setting healthy boundaries. Some clients have a history of trauma or other adverse childhood experiences which are impacting their present day functioning. For these individuals, having a safe place to be vulnerable, and heal from these past experiences is essential. I love being a therapist & helping people live their best life!

Making the decision to begin therapy can be incredibly difficult and even scary - but it has the potential to be life changing. Maybe you’ve been feeling like you just can’t find enjoyment in the things you once loved, worries are overwhelming you, it’s overly difficult to maintain a healthy relationship, or your child is struggling and you don’t know what else to do to help. Whatever your reason is for reaching out for help, I’m so glad that you’re taking this step and I’d be honored to join you on your journey toward recovery and wellness. I believe that it is possible for everyone to heal, grow and find happiness.

You've been thinking about starting therapy for a while now, but you find a reason not to make the call or send the email to set it up. You’re not sleeping well. Your job or friends or family responsibilities aren't unfulfilling. Your sex life is flat (or nonexistent). You don’t feel good about yourself. Heck, you don’t even remember when the last time you felt good, period! But you keep saying, “I don’t have the time.” “It’s not really that bad.” “I’m worried a therapist will just tell me that I’m crazy.” “I’ll see if I feel better next week.” I am telling you: It doesn't have to be this way!

We can all benefit from talking to someone at some point in our lives whether it be regarding stress, anxiety, frustration, irritability, anger, depressed mood or something in particular in your life that you need to vent about in a safe, nonjudgmental space to someone who will listen genuinely and empathetically. From these sessions you can both gain and lose. For example, you can lose things you have been holding on to and gain freedom and clarity. You can unlearn negative patterns of thinking or unwanted behaviors and learn some new skills and coping techniques.

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.
