Find a Female Therapist Near You

You’ve decided to go to therapy, but now comes the challenging part, finding the right provider. When thinking about finding the right provider, whether you decide to go with a male vs. female therapist might make a difference. Many, particularly those that identify as women or non-binary, may choose to find a female therapist for a variety of reasons including the feeling of safety, shared experience and comfortability.

You can find a therapist who meets your personal preferences, especially if you seek a professional who identifies as a woman therapist. Whether you are located in downtown Santa Monica, the suburbs of Santa Monica, other nearby places such as Hawthorne, Culver City, or anywhere else in California, Mental Health Match can help you easily find an experienced therapist or counselor who best meets your needs.

The Benefits of Talk Therapy with a Woman Therapist

There are several reasons why you may choose a female therapist:

• Trust and safety matter. If you think talking to a female therapist would make you feel more at ease and comfortable, listen to your gut instinct. It is important that you feel comfortable with your therapist, as the rapport or relationship you build with your provider has been shown to be one of the biggest predictors of outcomes in therapy.

• People who have suffered abuse or harassment from men may not feel comfortable sharing their feelings with a male therapist. A woman therapist may feel safer.

• It may be important to your own healing to develop a safe, compassionate connection with a woman, especially if you have not had such relationships in the past.
