Our Women's Issues therapy services cater specifically to the unique psychological, emotional, and life challenges faced by women across all stages of life. Understanding the complex interplay of personal, social, and cultural influences on women’s mental health, we provide a compassionate and empowering therapeutic environment. Our goal is to support women in navigating life transitions, relationship dynamics, work-life balance, body image concerns, and specific mental health conditions with strength and resilience.
Techniques and Supports for Addressing Women's Issues
* Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for addressing specific concerns such as anxiety, depression, and stress, tailoring interventions to meet the unique needs of women.
* Mindfulness and Self-Compassion Training to foster a positive and nurturing relationship with oneself.
* Life Transition Support focusing on major events such as pregnancy, motherhood, menopause, or career changes, offering strategies for adjustment and coping.
* Trauma-Informed Care to sensitively address and heal from experiences of trauma, including sexual abuse, domestic violence, and other forms of trauma disproportionately affecting women.
Goals of Therapy for Women's Issues
Our therapy for Women's Issues aims to:
* Empower and Validate by affirming women's experiences and strengths, fostering a sense of empowerment and self-worth.
* Enhance Coping Mechanisms with the development of adaptive skills and strategies for navigating life’s challenges.
* Promote Healing and Recovery from past traumas through compassionate and effective therapeutic practices.
* Support Life Transitions by providing guidance and coping strategies for the unique challenges associated with different life stages and events.
* Cultivate Healthy Relationships by exploring patterns, setting boundaries, and enhancing communication skills.
Our approach recognizes the diverse and dynamic roles women play in society and the unique challenges they face. By providing a supportive and understanding space, we aim to help women develop greater self-awareness, resilience, and a sense of fulfillment. Our therapy services are grounded in the belief that by addressing mental health and well-being holistically, women can achieve lasting personal growth and empowerment.

Dr. Patricia Webbink
Psychologist, MA and PhD in Clinical Psychology
For 50 years I have specialized in women's issues in psychotherapy. I was the first Feminist
Therapist in the Washington, DC metro area. I specialize in women's issues, and have presented on this subject at the Association for Humanistic Psychology as well as the American Psychological
Association. I have also given talks all over the United States on Feminist Therapy. I was featured on the front page of the "Outlook" section of The Washington Post on Feminist Therapy. In addition, I did the initial training for the staff of the Rape Crisis Center in the early 1970's. I also taught a class on Women's studies for The George Washington University, and American University. In addition, I gave talks on Feminist Therapy to the Brookings Institute and different colleges and universities. I have written articles for "Off Our Backs" and have chapters in "The Radical Therapist" and "Rough Times". I also organized a Feminist Therapy Conference in Washington, D.C. One can attend my
regular free zoom webinars as well. Please feel free to call for a consultation: 301-229-8000
