Just like clients sometimes 'shop around' for a therapist who either has experience working with a certain population, specializes in treating a particular concern, approaches therapy with a specific theoretical orientation, or uses a specific treatment modality, clients (regardless of sexual identity or gender expression) sometimes are on the lookout for a feminist-affirming therapist.

 

Feminism and feminist issues intertwine with a wide range of issues, and as your therapist I can help you by providing a safe place for you to parse them all out. These interconnected factors can affect our everyday lives in a myriad of ways, and understanding those sometimes visible and sometimes invisible forces can help you move forward and improve your mental health.
