I firmly believe that peace and even happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times. When life brings adversity, trauma, or illness, it can alter our perspective, often leading to depression, anxiety, internal struggles, and a sense of hopelessness. Therapy represents a partnership between two individuals embarking on a healing journey together. As healing progresses, it creates opportunities to rediscover peace and happiness.

The fast pace of modern life often conflicts with the natural way our brains and bodies respond to multi-tasking, managing stress, and maintaining relationships. It can be hard to find moments of peace or feelings of safety, and even harder to get our minds to calm when we have that space. This can be especially challenging when we have had traumatic experiences or ongoing mental health concerns. If you are struggling with challenges, relationships, life transitions, or mental health, you aren't a failure. You just may need to learn a different way of approaching these problem and to learn to trust all the parts that make up you.

You may not be feeling "like yourself." You may be struggling under the weight of emotions you feel like you can't control, or habits you can't shake. You may have gone through something you can't seem to just "get over." You might just be looking for a space where you can understand what you are feeling, and begin to let go of the guilt and shame that you are feeling. Or you may be looking for somewhere where you can not only recover but heal and thrive.

I specialize in helping women and teens through challenges and trauma.
Anxiety and depression are heavy and hard to work through alone. But you don't need to do this alone. Sometimes, we feel hopeless and worry we'll never be happy again, often overwhelmed with everyday responsibilities. Our mind races, never turning off and balance can be hard to find. Do you judge yourself unkindly? Do you compare yourself to others who seem to 'have it together' while you feel like you're falling apart? If you're experiencing any of this, it's real and overwhelming. Perhaps you feel lost and would love some direction and support- someone to talk to? You can feel better. Come find hope and peace again.

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.
