If you are reading this, the stressors in your life may be outpacing your resources to deal with them. You may feel unhappy and unable to achieve your goals. Whether we face relationship problems, excessive anxiety, frequent overwhelm and other painful emotions; depressive or unstable moods, attention issues, or insufficient energy to cope with circumstances – any of these challenges may lead us to think that something is essentially wrong with us, or that we are somehow unworthy of getting what we want. Sometimes we have tried psychotherapy, but our difficulties have persisted despite our greater self-knowledge and best intentions.

You want to live differently and you either don’t know where to start or you are ready for the next step in your journey to becoming more you. You may want to experience more freedom, more peace or greater connection to yourself or in your relationship with others.

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.
