My current practice includes a focus on mental health needs for adults and young adults (age 18-99) dealing with difficult life transitions and mental health needs. I have past experience working in a nursing home setting so I am well versed in Alzheimer's and Dementia Care and Behaviors as well as family and caregiver needs for that population. I use an eclectic approach that includes tools from DBT, Somatic Experiencing, Motivational Interviewing, with a Trauma informed lens.

Hello, my name is Kailey. I am a licensed professional clinical counselor, but do not consider myself the expert on what you need, you are the expert on you! I am a companion and guide as you navigate grief. I focus on transitions and loss. I am a certified thanatologist which means I have additional training in best practices for supportive grief counseling and end of life care. With a background working in a Hospice setting, I am equipped to help with end of life decision making. I love working with children and families and am currently the president-elect of the Association for Child and Adolescent Counseling Ohio Branch.

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.
