Hardship in life may be inevitable, but emotional turmoil does not have to be. At times we exhaust our coping resources, which leaves us feeling stuck or overwhelmed. With space and support, I fully believe each person can become “unstuck” to live a more fulfilling and meaningful life. Increasing self-awareness helps you get unstuck and influences personal growth and self-acceptance. By prioritizing a strong therapeutic relationship characterized by warmth, safety, and understanding, I can support you in developing effective coping skills and facilitate deeper exploration of the underlying roots that gave rise to your struggles.

Change is inevitable, they say...and it’s hard. Whether the change you're experiencing is unexpected or was hard sought-after, the effect is largely the same: it leaves you feeling disoriented, misunderstood and alone. In place of the control and mastery you once felt in your life, there is now chaos. You find yourself either paralyzed by in-decision or fighting desperately to find a foothold, but you just keep slipping...

I believe we are all inherently capable of change, especially when we acknowledge where we're falling short. I help guide people to make positive life changes by examining thoughts and feelings, and setting realistic goals for self-improvement. If you're not looking to set many goals, therapy is also just a safe space to process feelings you wouldn't otherwise process. I have done extensive work with general adult mental health and substance abuse, and I enjoy an integration of various holistic approaches to therapy. I value and respect all walks of life and take a culturally-sensitive approach.

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.
