About My Clients

Women face a number of mental health challenges due to stigma, gender based discrimination and violence, economic disparities and issues associated with pregnancy, postpartum, PMDD and menopause. Woman-focused, feminist psychotherapy can help you to navigate the unique challenges women face. These include handling the balancing act of the many responsibilities women often have - parenting, relationships, career, family, etc., body image issues, and even overcoming the impact of discrimination,

My Background and Approach

I know that there is no cookie cutter approach to therapy, and I want to get to know you as an individual. My approach is trauma informed and I often incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Cognitive Processing to help you to overcome unhealthy patterns and feel more secure and confident.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I know it can be intimidating to start therapy. I like to use a sense of humor and warmth to build a great relationship based on mutual respect and understanding so you feel comfortable to share and be yourself. I hope that I get a chance to know you and help you to work through any difficulties that you are facing and build a better life.
