Women’s Issues
Many women come to therapy not because something is “wrong,” but because something no longer fits.
They’ve done what was expected. They’ve held things together. They’ve been capable, responsible, and attuned to everyone else’s needs—often for a very long time. On the outside, they may look fine. On the inside, they feel disconnected from themselves, exhausted by patterns they can’t seem to change, or stuck between who they’ve been and who they’re becoming.
The women I work with are often navigating:
Chronic self-doubt or a harsh inner critic
Anxiety, overwhelm, or emotional shutdown
Body image struggles, disordered eating, or a complicated relationship with food
Relationship patterns rooted in attachment wounds
Trauma stored in the nervous system, even when “nothing terrible” seems to have happened
A loss of clarity, desire, or connection to their own voice
The sense that they’ve been living from obligation rather than truth
At the core of this work is not fixing you—it’s helping you come back to yourself.
How I Work With Women
My approach is integrative, relational, and deeply nervous-system informed. That means we don’t just talk about what you think—we listen to what your body has learned, what your emotions have been protecting, and what your patterns have been trying to do for you.
Many of the struggles women bring into therapy once made sense. They were intelligent adaptations to environments where it wasn’t safe to need, to speak up, to slow down, or to trust themselves. Therapy becomes a space where those adaptations are honored—and gently loosened—so something more authentic can emerge.
Together, we focus on:
Rebuilding trust in your internal signals
Understanding how past experiences shaped your present reactions
Regulating the nervous system so change feels possible, not overwhelming
Untangling attachment patterns that show up in relationships, boundaries, and self-worth
Integrating parts of yourself you’ve learned to ignore, suppress, or judge
Reclaiming your voice—internally and externally
This work is both grounding and expansive. It’s about learning how to be with yourself differently, not trying harder or becoming someone else.
A Space Where You Don’t Have to Be “Strong”
Many women are praised for their strength. But strength often comes at a cost—self-abandonment, emotional loneliness, and the quiet belief that you have to handle everything on your own.
Therapy offers something different.
Here, your experience is honored. Your pace matters. Your confusion makes sense. You don’t have to perform, explain, or prove anything. We slow down enough to hear what’s true underneath the noise, expectations, and survival strategies.
Over time, women often describe feeling:
More grounded and emotionally steady
Less reactive and more choiceful
Clearer about their needs and boundaries
More connected to their bodies and intuition
More authentic in relationships
More at home in themselves
This Work Is for You If…
You don’t need a label to belong here. If something in you recognizes this work—if reading this feels relieving rather than demanding—that’s often enough.
Therapy isn’t about becoming “better.”It’s about becoming more you—with safety, support, and compassion along the way.
If you’re ready to explore what that could look like, I’d be honored to walk with you.
