I believe there is no distinction between the body and the mind. I advocate for overall health, which means during therapy we may address not only your symptoms, but also areas like sleep, nutrition, medical issues, interpersonal relationships, career/education, movement/exercise, and issues from childhood. I provide evidence-based strategies such as relaxation skills training, psychoeducation, cognitive restructuring, and gentle exposure techniques to help you face your fears so your life can be a little easier. Most of my clients are women seeking help with parenting, stress, anxiety, and/or depression.

I believe that we are harmed in relationships and we heal in relationships. I approach therapy from a deeply relational space where everything that's occurring therapeutically is happening between us. Despite what problems or challenges you're facing, I invite you to show up authentically. I believe that as we enter into your story we together will attend to the various themes and patterns of your life, to listen to what's sitting below the surface of your unconscious, and to be present to the here and now of your emotional experiences. I believe in deep emotional work rather than just behavioral interventions.

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.
