Therapy For Women
Are You Feeling Overwhelmed And Out Of Balance?
Throughout your life, have you struggled to fully show up as the most authentic version of yourself?
Do you tend to put your own needs last or feel guilty for carving out quality time for yourself?
Are you currently facing big life decisions and need extra support navigating your journey?
Low self-esteem, a lack of self-compassion, and minimal self-care are a recipe for disaster. When you don’t prioritize yourself, it can impact your career, relationships, decision-making abilities, and overall well-being. Sadly, you may begin to operate in survival mode rather than embodying the most empowered and authentic version of yourself.
Navigating The Phases Of Life
For most women, each new phase of life presents a unique set of challenges that requires resilience, creativity, and support to overcome. You may be at the point where you’re embarking on a new relationship, trying to decide which career path to follow to become financially independent, or, perhaps, considering starting a family. If you are facing infertility, your path to becoming a parent is fraught with uncertainty.
If you’re a parent to older or grown children, you may be seeking support to better understand the new role and how you can continue to build a strong relationship. What’s more, navigating shifts in family dynamics as you and your parents age can also be challenging. These crossroads can seem overwhelming and cause you to feel anxious or depressed, instead of excited about what lies ahead.
You Might Be In Search Of Guidance With Relationships
As you seek intimacy and connection with others, many questions and fears may arise for you. Perhaps you have experienced unhealthy relationship dynamics throughout your life and need help untangling patterns that prevent you from expressing who you truly are. You may feel stuck in these patterns and unable to express your true thoughts, feelings, and desires in relationships of all kinds.
Therapy for women can help you identify these patterns, understand their origins and learn new ways of relating to others that allows for greater self-embodiment, self-expression, and emotional well-being. Exploring past experiences and learning new communication and boundary-setting skills will help you develop a deep understanding of your own values and needs and integrate them into your relationships.
Women Are Under Pressure To Be Perfect
In recent decades, society has put increasing pressure on women to “have it all”—physical beauty, good friends, rewarding careers, a loving partner —the list goes on. With the messaging women are exposed to, we can easily develop unrealistic expectations about what we’re meant to achieve.
This constant pressure makes us question our self-worth and struggle to feel comfortable with who we are, making it impossible to see all the qualities we have to offer. If you feel unsure of yourself, you’re not alone.
Empowering Women to Overcome Burnout in a Demanding World
Women who feel burned out and exhausted often struggle with setting boundaries. If you often find yourself feeling stressed, anxious, depressed, or isolated, you may need help developing strategies to set boundaries and implement coping skills that will help you meet the demands of your life circumstances.
We support you in discovering the root cause of your burnout and exhaustion in order to help you recover and create the life you desire. Counseling enables you to communicate your needs and boundaries more effectively so you can prioritize self-care and reduce stress, and find work-life balance. By connecting with yourself through therapy, you can take the first step towards building self-confidence and finding true healing.

Therapy For Women Can Help You Discover Your Most Authentic Self
Admitting that you need help is a courageous and vulnerable step. Because each stage of life comes with a unique set of challenges and areas of focus—whether you’re considering a new career, starting a family, or finding it difficult to balance work and home life—we can support you in caring for yourself as you care for others.
Therapy for women is time set aside each week to fully connect to your inner self and move towards living a life that's in line with your values and desires. In counseling, you will learn new ways to cope, enabling you to move through life with empowerment.
What To Expect In Therapy For Women
Therapy for women offers a safe place for you to process your emotions without judgment. You can share whatever difficulties you face with someone who will validate your experience and support you on your journey. Women’s counseling offers you the clarity to identify what your priorities and eliminate any internal confusion that may bog you down.
We enable women to increase their self-compassion which in turn improves all areas of life. Whether you may benefit from enhancing your work-life balance, building self-esteem, or healing past emotional wounds, counseling customized for women allows you to slow life down, focus on yourself and move toward the life you want and deserve.
The root of your wounds may go back to childhood or previous relationships that inflicted pain. We will work together to find the connection between your inner child and how you are currently operating in the world, so that you have a deeper understanding of the emotional wounding and how it can be addressed. Together we can unpack what is causing your internal discomfort so you can heal and restore balance.
The Holistic Approaches We Use In Women’s Therapy
We offer different modalities to reduce suffering and foster a healthier, happier, and more confident version of yourself. These include Internal Family Systems (IFS), Attachment Theory, as well as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). IFS aids in connecting you to your inner self by addressing any overshadowing shame, guilt, anger, discontentment, or sadness you may feel. This allows you to be more present for those around you and work toward realizing your true potential.
Exploring your attachment style that stems from your childhood experiences, you can examine the way you currently show up in your relationships. Gaining an understanding of how you relate to others offers insight into how to better connect with yourself and move towards actions that align with your true desires.
By working towards acceptance of what “is”, ACT can help you achieve newfound freedom and resiliency as you experience life’s ups and downs. Through self-attunement, you can deepen self-understanding and promote your ability to live according to your values instead of against them.
No matter where you begin your therapeutic journey, we are here to offer you unconditional support and listen to your story. There is immense hope for you to better understand and heal the painful parts of your past. You deserve a life well-lived.
But You May Have More Questions About Therapy For Women…
I barely have time as it is—will counseling for women be worth the time investment?
We appreciate how challenging it can be to balance your responsibilities—it can make committing to women’s therapy feel overwhelming. We also know how life-changing being seen and heard can be. Therapy for women offers you the invaluable gift of time and space to focus on your own needs instead of everyone else’s. Self-care counseling allows you to be more present in your life outside of therapy and develop tools that will benefit you throughout your daily life. You are deserving of this support and time for yourself, so take it.
Do I have the right to complain about being unhappy when life is “good”?
Even though on a superficial level all seems well, beneath the surface it might be a different story, and that’s okay. We are here to help you explore the root cause of your discomfort so you can improve your well-being. Developing awareness of what underlies your suffering allows you to find new ways to cope and cultivate joy. We will walk alongside you as we discover what works best for you.
I’ve felt insecure for a long time—what hope is there of changing?
Many women seeking counseling have asked this same question. No matter how long you’ve been unsure of yourself, there is hope you can feel more confident about who you are and discover your inner beauty. Because our brains are malleable, we can create new neural pathways that will change the way you view yourself and your life. By examining your internal dialogue and teaching you new ways to challenge your self-talk, we can promote a more positive voice from within. We will empower you to feel your best.
