My role as a psychotherapist is to help you develop a stronger sense of self-presence and self worth, to help you understand and validate feelings, to provide support for anxiety, depression and grief, and to help you develop the ability to find comfort and wisdom within yourself. Psychotherapy as I practice it is a collaborative exploration between you and me in an atmosphere of empathy and without judgment. Sessions take place in a confidential setting and follow the lead of your needs, thus validating your integrity, uniqueness and depth.

Many people come to therapy because they have run out of ways to help themselves feel better. They have read books, blogs, watched videos, and talked to friends, but they still feel sad, anxious, alone, angry, easily triggered, and lost. Therapy offers you more than information or an ear; it offers you a connection with someone who is present with you, listens to your needs, and works with you to find ways to help you feel less sad, anxious, alone. It does not fix you. It gives you the tools to help you improve the way you live, cope, heal, and grow.

I provide a supportive therapeutic environment that is comfortable and non-judgmental. My clinical approach to therapy is a partnership that allows my clients to be interactive in their sessions. Together, we will discuss what your presenting concerns are and work on building skills that will help you cope with those issues. If you are unsure what your specific therapeutic goals are at this time and are looking for broader supports, we can also work together to gain a better understanding of yourself while building a toolbox of skills that will help you move forward on your journey.

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.
