Jennie Steinberg - feminist, queer-affirming therapist
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPCC, PMH-C
I work with clients of all genders from a feminist perspective, which means that we consider the ways in which rigid gender roles and expectations are harmful to everyone. But this is particularly true for women and trans and nonbinary people. Women and female-socialized people are taught to be empathic caretakers, but we forget to make sure to take care of ourselves, and often find that others don't take care of us. We're told we can "have it all" but we're not given supports that make "it all" sustainable or even, perhaps, desirable. So often, if we feel broken, the reality of the situation is that we're perfectly functional, but broken systems are failing us. My feminism is trans-inclusive and conscious of intersectionality. In addition to supporting people who are struggling with these broader issues, I am also a certified perinatal mental health professional.
I bring both my professional background and my lived experience to supporting people with uteruses who are coping with infertility or fertility treatments, pregnancy (including high-risk pregnancy), and the postpartum transition, ranging from identity questions and baby blues to postpartum depression and anxiety. If you feel like you could use some support in the monumental task of "existing while female," reach out. I look forward to meeting you soon!

Stephanie Brumfield
Therapist, MSW, ASW, PPSC
In the intimate journey of healing and self-discovery, my practice stands as a sanctuary for women confronting the multifaceted dimensions of the mother wound and its profound impact on their sense of self and relational dynamics. This nuanced approach extends beyond the immediate challenges of motherhood, delving deep into the legacy of maternal relationships that shape our experiences as women—from feelings of inadequacy and unresolved anger to the profound yearning for a nurturing connection that was absent.
Acknowledging the intricate ways in which the mother wound intertwines with the stages of womanhood, I provide a compassionate, supportive space for women at all points of their life journey. Whether grappling with the emotional aftermath of reproductive choices, such as abortions or pregnancy terminations, navigating the complexities of becoming a mother, or seeking to heal from painful childhoods and ancestral traumas, my practice is dedicated to fostering healing, empowerment, and self-reclamation.
Central to this work is the exploration of the mother wound, aiming to break the cycles of pain and misunderstanding that bind us. Through this lens, we address not just the personal narratives of hurt and longing but also the broader societal expectations and stigmas that influence our self-perception and relationships. My goal is to guide women through this deeply transformative process, offering insights and therapeutic interventions that illuminate the path to healing, self-acceptance, and the ability to form healthier, more fulfilling relationships.
This holistic, empathetic approach is designed to support women in reclaiming their power, voice, and worth, enabling them to move forward with a renewed sense of wholeness and authenticity. Here, in a space where the unspoken and unseen are brought to light, the journey toward healing the mother wound becomes a pivotal step in embracing a liberated, empowered sense of self.

Marianne Albina
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT # 139542
I provide a safe and inclusive space for women to explore the stories they tell themselves about their identities, relationships, and societal roles, uncovering the voices behind those narratives. We delve into the impact of patriarchy in their lives and the power of various characters in their history, and we call out the weight of societal norms and expectations. Through therapy, clients co-author new narratives that emphasize their values, strength, resilience, and self-compassion, empowering them to navigate life's challenges with greater confidence and deeper connections with others.
