Being a Young Adult is challenging, it is not always what you expected it to be. Maybe you were expecting to be married, dating, pregnant, or just happy. You were for sure not expecting to be stressed all the time and stuck in the middle of a quarter-life crisis. Are you feeling like something has got to change?

My orientation toward therapy is grounded in a humanistic perspective that holds individuals are inherently motivated toward well-being and self-actualization. Given a safe and supportive environment, I believe, most individuals embrace opportunities and insight to work toward changing negative patterns in their lives and to find hope and healing. From an advocacy orientation, we will utilize empowerment strategies and identify external barriers that inhibit individual development and self-advocacy skills and work through traumatic experiences and impacts from life experiences to return you to healthy functioning.

As humans, we will inevitably go through many life changes and events. Sometimes, those experiences can affect us in many different ways. You may experience moments of happiness, sadness, anger, or hopelessness. Some of these feelings, in turn, may impact how you view yourself as well as the world around you. Although you may be able to navigate through some of your emotions on your own, there may be times when you feel as if you need more assistance. It is okay to not be okay. It's also okay to seek help. I truly enjoy working with individuals and helping them cultivate peace within themselves and in their lives in general.

How often do you find yourself saying "I’m fine?" Are you in a career field that requires you to be "on" all the time? Does reaching out for help feel shameful or equals weakness? Maybe you can’t share what goes on in your day-to-day because you see and hear the worst of it. You don’t enjoy the activities you once did and snap with irritation at the slightest request. Perhaps you've survived the unimaginable, but now you really want to live. I imagine it took a significant amount of courage to get to this point. I'll honor your bravery in reaching out and give you the tools to be an active participant in your life.

My experience includes working with: trauma and abuse, women's issues, adoption issues, teens and children, grief, loss, life transitions, anxiety and depression, and marital struggles.
The journey of life sometimes leads us down roads and paths untraveled. These new paths can be exciting or painful and scary. Perhaps you have experienced an unexpected death or loss. You or someone you love may be struggling with addiction, like substances or pornography. You may experience chronic physical pain and feel hopeless to find relief. Stress, depression, and anxiety may have surfaced unexpectedly or you have struggled with them for years. Or, you may be experiencing a life transition and hoping to grow through it. You, your children, teenagers, marriage, or family may be struggling to find harmony, peace or direction.

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.
