The transition to motherhood is more difficult than you envisioned. You don’t recognize yourself and it feels weird. You have these deep, dark thoughts and fears that you’re not sharing with anyone and need a space for someone to listen. You're struggling in your new role as a parent. There’s so much to worry about between a new baby, your relationship with your spouse, family, household stuff - the mental load. It’s exhausting and overwhelming. It’s difficult to keep it together until the next moment you have alone, then you get to cry it out.

Hi, I'm Taylor, thanks for visiting my profile! Life experiences teach us to feel, think, and act in ways that help us get by at one point, but may no longer be helpful in the present. This can result in feeling detached from yourself, others, or your potential. Therapy is a place to understand, challenge, and update these outdated behaviors and thoughts. By carving out this time in session, we are making space for more fulfillment in your present and your future. It is possible to update our old "internal software"- and this is why I love my job!

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.
