In addition, you will be working with a professional who has been in the mental health field for over 25 years and has a strong passion for working with women in all stages of life.
As a therapist who solely works with women, I am keenly aware of the unique needs that evolve during each phase of our lives. I realize that as we encounter our own personal ups and downs that our emotions, family, work/finances, relationships, activities, and goals often feel the effects as well. Truly being listened to by another person is precious and often uncommon. When it happens, we feel its power through understanding and respect. Once this takes place, amazing things happen...authentic communication, freedom from negative thoughts, healing, contentment, courage, and strategies for growth.

As human beings we developed in stages. In a perfect world all of us would be able to develop into having autonomy, initiative, industry, intimacy, generativity and integrity. Although, not all people have the opportunity to develop those important traits and may feel stuck in feeling shame, guilt, inferiority, isolation, stagnation and despair. Those feelings may come as symptoms of depression and anxiety.

The therapeutic process takes time, it is hard, but given enough support and strength, the process is worth it. My focus is on helping clients, families, and couples create an environment that is positive and healthy all around.

In effective psychotherapy, it is essential to me that each person experiences being heard and understood, sees realistic hope for change, and is lovingly supported and skillfully guided toward that change. Transformation may involve insight, clarity, emotional release, practical problem solving, improving communication skills, dissolving blocks and healing trauma. Healing through counseling helps lead to successful relationships and to finding direction in one's life and career. Each person, couple, and famil is unique and is met where they are and in ways they need. During my 30+ years as a psychotherapist/couples" counselor , I have assisted people

I have worked in crisis services and community mental health with children and adults. I practice primarily from Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) and Person Centered (Rogerian) approaches, and have training in Parent Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). I love working with clients who are ready to challenge themselves to grow through their experiences - clients who challenge themselves to step outside of their comfort zones to grow into better versions of who they are. I also appreciate when clients have clear goals and use therapy in the manner that best fits their style.

Maybe you are on the verge of something…big, scary, exhilarating, distressing. Are you looking for some support to take a leap of faith? Has life brought you to a crossroads you are unsure how to navigate? My passion is helping adults facing challenges during life transitions such as employment change, relocation, divorce, empty nest, health. I can work with you to transform challenges into exciting discoveries of self. I like to refer to this as resilience. Resilience is not a trait that people either have or do not have. Anyone can develop and nurture resilience. Resilience is not magic; it is a state of being.

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.
