Cynthia Leslie
Pastoral Counselor/Therapist, MA, CPRS
Many women struggle with trying to be all things to all people. Maintaining a career, raising children, and caring for elderly parents can often be issues that they face. Setting boundaries and self-care are some of the interventions that are explored in counseling.

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.

Dr. Lynn E. O'Connor
Therapist, PhD
There is no way to ignore and live untouched by the system of male supremacy, despite the progress we've made over the past decades. I help women begin to understand how the many problems and challenges they've faced, believing them to be personal and psychological, have been fundamentally political ramifications of the male supremacist system we all endure. As a feminist prosocial psychologist, I support women raise their consciousness of the effects of the broader system and help them develop the strength and confidence they need to pursue the life they've wanted.
