Are you living an authentic life? This very moment is rich with the capacity for change. The most miraculous opportunities for creativity, authenticity and connection are present in this moment. Trauma, Depression and Anxiety can block us from experiencing the life we are meant to live. Moments of transition and change can leave us feeling disconnected and imbalanced. If this resonates with you, I may be able to help.

I have specialized in the healing of trauma for the last 31 years through individual, group, couples work. My expertise is EMDR. After 18 years of using this tool I am still amazed at how profoundly and quickly clients heal from tremendous pain and struggles. EMDR is often considered to be used only and primarily for a discreet trauma like a car accident. In fact, however, EMDR is a tool that incorporates how the brain processes information every night during REM sleep. Since our brains have REM daily, EMDR is a magnificient way to address most of life's problems.

Many people ask themselves, "Should I consider therapy?" Some enter therapy when health problems, anxiety, depression, or grief negatively impacts quality of life. Others seek counseling to work through past traumas and begin to weave all experiences, both good and bad, into the fabric of their lives. Sometimes, despite great personal potential, people find themselves stuck in self-destructive patterns. A common goal for therapy is to become more skilled at making deliberate and self-fulfilling choices instead of reacting to situations emotionally.

Self-doubt, perfectionism and a busy mind easily lead to feeling overwhelmed and anxious. Anxious thoughts make it quite challenging to feel present and to live your most authentic life. Throughout your experience with anxiety, you may have done some research to understand how and why anxiety shows up for you, yet it can be overwhelming to know how this information can be applied to create meaningful change. Whether you are seeking a deeper understanding of yourself, decreasing the impact anxiety is having on your life, or craving more intentionality and presence, therapy at Cedar Rose can help you find freedom and peace of mind.

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.
