Philip Starkman
Registered Psychotherapist, MSW, RSW
In my practice, I provide a nurturing and respectful space for women navigating the unique challenges and transitions that can arise throughout their lives. With a holistic approach that includes Mindfulness, the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Role-Playing, I support women in exploring and addressing issues such as relationship dynamics, self-esteem, career pressures, motherhood, and life transitions. Mindfulness helps cultivate a present-moment awareness and acceptance, EFT offers a method for managing emotional stress, IFS allows for an exploration of internal parts and their roles, CBT challenges unhelpful patterns of thinking and behavior, and Role-Playing enhances coping skills in real-life scenarios. My role is to guide and empower women through these experiences, providing tools and insights to foster resilience, personal growth, and a deeper understanding of themselves. Together, we work towards not only resolving immediate concerns but also building a foundation for lasting well-being and fulfillment.

Melissa Klass M.A., LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT #119163
Being a woman in America in 2024 is not easy. A mentor of mine once said that she did not envy my experience as a woman today. She grew up in a different time, a time when she was expected to be a good mother for her children and a responsible homemaker for her husband. Today, beyond these roles, there is a subtle, quiet undercurrent of expectations including, but by no means limited to, being a “good” wife, sister, friend, and neighbor (what does “good” mean anyway?), a career woman, an impromptu party host with a meticulous home (cook, housekeeper, etc.), and a selfless volunteer in the community, all while maintaining a size 2 figure. How can we possibly manage all this and more? Together we can explore the expectations you have of yourself as well as your place in today's world.

SHANNON KLOSAK
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LAADC-CA, M-RAS, NCPM, DV VICTIM ADVOCATE
Women wear many hats, and at times, it can be overwhelming. Self-care gets lost in the shuffle, while meeting the needs of everyone else becomes routine. You don't have to do it all. Let's find that healthy balance together.

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.

Women have unique challenges related to hormonal cycles, fertility, pregnancy and birth, motherhood, sisterhood wounds (competitiveness, judgment), body image, aging, sexualization, and the list goes on. You deserve loving support for whatever challenges you're experiencing in this realm, woman to woman.
