You feel like your mind is constantly going and the worries of the day keep piling on
I feel behind
Will they like me?
Did I do that right?
Why can’t I ever get it right?
I should have done . . .
I hope I didn’t upset them
I wish I could just . . .
I’m never going to get there
I am not good enough
Do you wake up in the morning feeling tired and with little excitement for the day ahead? Do other people seem to think that you have it all together, but instead you feel like you are falling apart? Do you replay past memories or life events and wonder where you went wrong? Have you lost sleep over worrying and trying to find the perfect solution for the problems you experience?
Have you tried everything from talking to friends or family and you just feel like you can’t escape the worry or fear? When change or new opportunities come your way, do you later feel afraid and wonder how it will work out? Do you feel like no matter how hard you try, you just don’t feel good enough?
It’s stressful living your life in fear and worry. I get it and I’ve been there!
The good news is that you are good enough and therapy for women can help move you towards growth and healing

Frequently Asked Questions in Beginning Therapy
-
No. I am open to working with anyone who doesn’t identify as a girl or woman especially if you feel we would be a good fit. I’ve worked with boys and men as well as individuals who identify as LGBTQ+ I would love to meet you and see if we would be a good fit!
-
Wherever you are at in life, therapy can support you in navigating relationships and working on your personal needs. The best way to know if therapy is right for you is to schedule a 15 minute consultation today, so we can discuss your goals and see if we are a good fit!
-
I am excited to work with your child or teen in therapy! Therapy typically involves building a trusting relationship in the early stages and I will get to know your child’s strengths and interests. I use art and play therapy with younger children as well as cognitive behavioral therapy with children and teens. Check out more in the specialities tab at the top of my website!
-
Therapy for adults is typically 50 minute sessions and involve open conversations about your thoughts and feelings and how they are impacting you on a daily basis. I honor your life experiences and will support you in working towards your goals. I also offer weekly and bi-weekly therapy for adults to move at your pace.
-
My rate is $150 per 50 minute session. Longer sessions will be prorated in 15 minute intervals.
-
I do not take insurance due to regulations by insurance companies that are not in the best interest of clients or therapists. However, I can provide a super bill for potential reimbursement and many insurances offer out of network benefits. Please check with your insurance for more details.
-
Clients typically find themselves in therapy for 3-5 months with weekly or bi-weekly sessions. The length of therapy depends on your individual challenges and goals. After therapy with me, you have the option to schedule sessions on in “as needed” basis.
-
Therapy is confidential unless I suspect you are in danger of harming yourself or others. There are also legal exceptions to confidentiality, which we will discuss at the beginning of therapy. As an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist, I have a supervisor that I communicate with on a weekly basis, so I can give the best care to my clients.
