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.

Andrea Elkon
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Perhaps my most significant specialization is in working with women who present with the Female Athlete Triad--a combination of over-training plus under-nourishing can lead to repetitive injuries. What the triad does not acknowledge is the mental health component--typically the struggle with anxiety, perfectionism, control, and fear of failure. I enjoy helping women connect their thoughts and feelings, examining how they impact eating and exercise behaviors. Please feel free to reach out to me to learn more about my approach to treating women's health issues.

Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in women's issues, my approach to therapy is sensitive, inclusive, and empowering. I provide a safe space for women to explore and address a wide range of challenges they may face, including gender discrimination, body image concerns, reproductive health issues, and relationship dynamics. Through a combination of feminist therapy, cognitive-behavioral techniques, and trauma-informed care, I help women understand and navigate societal pressures, internalized beliefs, and interpersonal conflicts. I aim to validate women's experiences, foster self-compassion, and promote resilience in overcoming obstacles. Additionally, I advocate for women's rights and empowerment, both within and outside the therapy room, while collaborating with other professionals and community resources to address systemic issues affecting women's well-being. My goal is to support women in realizing their strengths, reclaiming their autonomy, and achieving greater fulfillment in all aspects of their lives.
