“My experience in body-based therapy as well as cognitive processing allows me to take a holistic, whole-person approach to therapy.”

Through my own self-work, I learned that my empathy and compassion are my biggest strengths. I use an eclectic, person-centered, and strength-based framework to help women see their unique strengths. Watching them blossom and shift unhelpful beliefs to ones that promote positivity and growth is what I live for.

I have been trained in and often incorporate Mindfulness techniques, somatic interventions, and Cognitive Behavior Therapy interventions to help clients gain awareness and understand the relationship between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors.

Additionally, I have extensive training in dance/movement therapy, which allows me to use body-based interventions to help clients become more aware of and understand their physical sensations and emotions. Sessions are tailored to individual needs through ongoing communication.

My experience in body-based therapy as well as cognitive processing allows me to take a holistic, whole-person approach to therapy.

Kind Words From Real Patients

“No practice has helped me the way Therapy for Women has.”

“I have been to many therapists for trauma work but no practice has helped me the way Therapy for Women has. This practice is based on mutual trust. Your therapist will happily share bits of their own life experiences. This always makes me feel less alone in what I am experiencing and make sessions feel so comfortable. I really think this practice is something special and I am SO happy I found it when I did.”

“Therapy for Women empowers clients to see change in themselves.

“Therapy for Women offers a fresh and modern approach to therapy which involves empowering clients to see change in themselves. They give you tools to supplement what’s talked about in session so you can go home and practice life skills. This step has been so crucial for my long-term recovery and emotional stability. The therapists genuinely care for each client. No matter why you go to Therapy for Women, these women WILL change your life. I really can’t thank them enough.”

“Therapy for Women has saved my life and then stuck with me to help me rebuild it from the bottom up.”

“In addition to individual therapy, I'm in a weekly group. I've created wonderful friendships here. It's also functioned as a safe space for me to experiment with things like stating my needs, getting vulnerable, setting boundaries, and receiving feedback from a non-therapist. Therapy for Women has saved my life and then stuck with me to help me rebuild it from the bottom up.”

“They just genuinely care about their patients.”

"I found this center when I needed it most in life. They matched me with a few therapists and first time was a charm. The center itself is very quick to act if you need anything. I see a psychiatrist within the practice as well and he too is amazing. They just genuinely care about their patients. You don’t feel like a time slot to them."

“…the very first therapist they hooked me up with was my perfect match.”

"Finding the right therapist is the hardest journey when you are already at your worst. I've tried multiple and none were working for me. But then I was told about Therapy for Women Center and the very first therapist they hooked me up with was my perfect match. We've been together coming on 2 years and she has really been amazing."

“The office has a soothing atmosphere, you immediately feel comfortable and at ease.”

"Happy to have found Therapy for Women Center. I can feel a change in my thinking and lifestyle and it is a huge difference from a year ago. So grateful! The office has a soothing atmosphere, you immediately feel comfortable and at ease."
