I am a masters level therapist that enjoys supporting individuals in reaching their personal goals. I believe in meeting a person where they are. In my therapeutic approach, I take a strength-based approach. I would like each of my clients to feel empowered and confident in their ability to maneuver through their therapeutic journey. I believe the things that we go through in life do not define us; they just shape us. People are resilient and have the ability and strength to overcome obstacles. With support, a desire to overcome/work through your challenges, and positive coping mechanisms, you can succeed.

I enjoy working with teens, young adults, women and men to assist them in their growth and development.
This might feel like a difficult first step in getting yourself the help you want and need. It is never easy prioritizing YOU when everything around you seems to be falling apart. I would like to help you on your journey to self-actualization, towards the person you are truly meant to be and towards the person you always knew you were. This therapeutic journey is about discovering and exploring together, as a team, which direction you want to go. As the driver, you will direct the sessions, but as the passenger, I will be there to assist and guide you along the way.

You should never expect to be happy all of the time, it is not realistic. Truthfully, I would never claim to be perfect or from an ideal family, marriage, or community.

What sets the identity of my sessions is their structure and strategy. While I believe in having client centered treatment, I've often felt as though the therapist/client relationship requires strategy and tangible advancement that can be noted by the client. What this means is that using psycho education to identify thought or behavior patterns is often used as well as guided conversations to further explore the nature of distressed mental health symptoms. My previous experience includes: Adult counseling with a focus on Anxiety based disorders, Family counseling, Reunification counseling, Drug/Alcohol counseling

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.
