Do you just need someone to talk to? Feeling like things are out of control? Coping with day to day stress? Experiencing loss? Experiencing “big” life changes? Setting personal and or professional goals? If you find yourself wanting more out of life, it’s time to take it to the next level. The first step towards getting somewhere.....is to decide that you are not staying where you are.

Internal struggles can be difficult and lonely to experience. Living with constant worry and anxiety, feelings of sadness, obsessive and compulsive thoughts, or behaviors, are all challenges that are painful to navigate. The exciting news is that through proper treatment one can learn to work through these hurdles, and instead of viewing them as demons, transform them into vehicles for self-awareness and growth. I aim to create a safe and nurturing environment for my clients where they feel heard and supported.

You are anxious, depressed, concerned about a toxic relationship, or life transition. You might have previously tried to manage these feelings by reading inspirational books or social media posts, yet you find yourself stuck, asking yourself, "I have tried so hard. How have I not reached my goals?" Your goal is to master coping skills so you can feel confident with your life decisions, and feel mentally, emotionally, and physically prepared to face life's challenges, rock at that new job, reengage with 'that' family member or friend, excel at your current schooling, or explore a new relationship with yourself or with someone else.

In many occasions anyone can feel anxious, confused, overwhelmed and lonely especially when a decision must be made. According to the National Institute of Mental Health, an estimated 51.5 million adults in the United States experienced depression, anxiety, or another mental illness in the past year. Steering through these times can be confusing. However, many times these situations are meant to bring us into new awareness of ourselves and those around us. Navigating these rough waters with a counselor can bring us to a greater perspective and experience.

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.
