Frequently Asked Questions

What is women's issues therapy?

Women's issues therapy is individual therapy focused on the specific challenges women face — relationships, self-worth, motherhood, career pressure, body image, and more — in a space designed to understand that context, not generic advice.

Should I see a female therapist?

Many women feel more comfortable and understood working with a female therapist who has lived experience with these pressures — but what matters most is finding someone you trust and feel safe with. A consultation is a great way to see if we're a good fit.

When is it not the right time for therapy?

Therapy works best when you're ready to actively engage with the process. If you're in acute crisis and need immediate support, or not yet ready to explore these patterns, that's okay too — we can talk through what timing makes sense during your consultation.

What can I expect from therapy for women?

A warm, judgment-free space blending EMDR, somatic work, and practical strategies — tailored to whatever you're navigating, whether that's anxiety, relationships, motherhood, or reclaiming your sense of self.

How does therapy help teen girls?

Teen girls face unique pressures — identity formation, social media comparison, body image, and relationship struggles — that can intensify low self-esteem, anxiety, and depression. I provide a compassionate space tailored to these unique developmental needs.
