Life is not predictable. Relationships and circumstances change, causing emotional responses which are activated by stress or a feeling of being overwhelmed. Therapy acts as a holding space for those emotional experiences which are sometimes difficult to share. Therapy is a tool that can be used to assist in overcoming or understanding obstacles to growth. I want to share in these emotional experiences with you and offer support and guidance while you navigate through life's transitions.

You're a parent or a guardian who often feels overwhelmed by the emotional and behavioral challenges that their children face. It can be tough to provide co-regulation when you're feeling heightened as well. Maybe your child needs help regulating their emotional reactivity to high stress situations or finding coping skills that can help calm the storm of flooded feelings and expression. My hope is that we can work together to find strategies that range from processing trauma to meeting the unique needs of children who are gifted with diverse abilities.

People come to counseling because they want something to be different in their lives. They may want to change their personal or family situation, solve a particular problem, or simply bring a healthier balance to their lives. The counseling process can be fun and exciting. It can also, at times, be very challenging. However, the goal will always be to bring about some positive change.

“What is wrong with me?” Have you ever found yourself feeling this way? Something feels “off,” and you just can’t put your finger on it. All the things that are supposed to make you feel happy and fulfilled are not doing any of these things. Instead, you feel more broken and disconnected inside than ever. You are doing all the “right stuff” to overcome your past; yet, your painful history always manages to catch up to you, leaving you feeling “stuck” in the same destructive thought patterns and relationships. You don't necessarily want to die, but are tired of living this way. Can you relate?

Feeling disconnected, tired, or overwhelmed by life’s responsibilities? It’s common to experience highs and lows, and sometimes the lows can overshadow the positives. Managing the balance between work, life, family, and self-care can be challenging. If you're struggling with anxiety or burnout and seeking both reassurance and effective support, you’re not alone.

Now accepting new adult clients seeking help with overwhelming work-related stress. If you notice that you’re feeling exhausted, cynical, and ineffective in your career, you may be experiencing clinical burnout. An increasingly common experience for professionals, especially leaders, burnout feels debilitating and makes every aspect of life harder. I integrate mental health therapy and career counseling to help clients reclaim their time, increase their physical and mental energy, and elevate their performance.

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.
