You're experiencing high anxiety or constant feelings of depression so frequently that you forget what happens on your ride home because you're reliving those traumatic moments. Being stuck in your past or unforeseen future can hinder you from living in the moment.

Who among us hasn't felt out-of-sync, overwhelmed or alone? It's not a matter of if something hits us, but when, and I'm not being pessimistic. What determines how well we ride out a crisis is how many healthy coping skills we learn through our life transitions. Even a loving family can’t teach what it doesn’t know. I want clients coming to therapy with me to know that therapy is not about changing you, but about evolving into your more authentic self, dropping unhelpful thinking habits that keep us imprisoned in old hurts, and learning to forgive ourselves & others for not knowing any better. “When we know better, we do better.”

Clients that I work with may deal with adjustment disorder which is considered a life change, mild to moderate depressive disorders and anxiety concerns. I have worked extensively with individuals experiencing life stressors including finding meaning and purpose in life, work-life balance, stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and frustration. The people that I work with would like to return to their previous level of functioning or obtain some form of normalcy for their life for the foreseeable future and I am there to work with them to help them obtain their life goals.

Does peace feel out of reach and impossible to imagine right now? Peace is crucial to our quality of life and integral to navigating life’s complexities and challenges. All too often we are in a silent war with ourselves and our brain and thought life can lead us to dark emotional places. Feelings of worthlessness, shame, anger, grief, and resentments chisel away at our vitality. All that remains is a heavy tiredness and sense of hopelessness that can make us feel incredibly alone. We are not created to handle soul crushing experiences on our own.

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.
