I am committed to helping clients overcome negative issues and emerge from therapy empowered to reach their full potential. Whether you are struggling with symptoms of anxiety, depression, low-self-esteem or relationship issues, therapy can help eliminate feelings of shame and guilt and increase positive self-image. Eradicating negative thought processes can help you regain a sense of self-control. My non-judgmental, humanistic approach to both individual and relationship sessions will make the most difficult step of "starting" much easier. I am presently accepting new individuals and couples for therapy.

No matter how hard you try, you just cannot seem to move forward. This feeling is preventing you from growth, the ability to connect, and is most likely causing pain and confusion. Although these experiences are common, how we choose to deal with them is critical towards creating a meaningful and positive life. My desire is to help you discover that you are more than your problems and the roadblock that is in front of you can be moved with help.

Looking for the "right" therapist is challenging. Truth is... based on my bio or any other therapist it's difficult to gauge who is a good fit. Well... Do need someone to "talk through some things?" Possibly need a different perspective who isn't a family member or close friend? Or maybe you someone to listen and not make you feel "crazy?" More often than not, we all need someone. Your time in therapy will address your needs. I will do my best to challenge you and this may not feel good. I’m here to listen, understand, and provide skills to help you.

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.
