Stephanie Brumfield
Therapist, LCSW
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.

Sarah Wagner LMFT Corp
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, MBA
Women often navigate complex pressures related to identity, relationships, caregiving, career, body image, and societal expectations. I provide therapy grounded in attachment theory, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and developmental models to explore how early relational experiences and cultural messages shape self-worth and emotional patterns.
Together, we work with parts that may feel over-responsible, self-critical, invisible, or overwhelmed. Therapy supports boundary clarity, emotional regulation, secure attachment, and a stronger sense of voice and agency.

Dr. Mandi Maycumber
Therapist, PsyD, LPCC, LMHC, SUDP
Women face unique stressors and pressures in a society that has yet to recover or fully acknowledge the extent sexism has shaped our world. As a woman with a feminist lens, I help women talk openly about their fears, hopes, and challenges to reach optimal functioning for themselves.

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Managing women's health issues can be stressful and overwhelming, but you don't need to suffer alone. I support women experiencing things like perimenopause, menopause, PMDD and infertility. We can't eliminate the health issues you are facing, but we can work on strategies for managing the symptoms to ease your stress and help you feel in control of your life again. You don't need to be defined by these health issues; together we will explore who you are and find ways to build a full, satisfying life.

Dr. Cristal Lopez
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Welcome! You might be feeling disconnected from your family, friends, children, job, or even the world. I'm Dr. Cristal Lopez, and I believe that we all have powerful strengths. Together, we will explore yours to help you unlock your full potential, connect authentically with others, and show up as your true self. My training at top U.S. children's hospitals, including Children's Hospital Los Angeles, California Pacific Medical Center, Texas Children’s Hospital, and Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, has provided me with over 6 years of experience working with children, adolescents, young and mid-life adults, and families.
For my younger clients, I use behavioral and play therapy techniques, while also supporting parents and families to foster healthy connections. With adolescents and adults, I draw on strength-based, humanistic, and relational principles to guide our work together.
Beyond traditional mental health concerns, I specialize and publish work in: coping with chronic illnesses, career-related issues (burnout, work-life balance), trauma, adverse childhood experiences, and stress related to first-responder families. I’m committed to guiding you, your child, or family to a more connected and fulfilling life. Invest in yourself!

Amy Price, AMP Family Therapy Inc.
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I hold dear the value and purpose of being a woman. It is a unique and often misunderstood experience. I want to help women embrace their special place in the home, the community and the world. Being a woman can be so hard and daunting at times. Stress, pressure to perform, feeling inadequate and isolated at times, coming to therapy and having individual attention set on these experiences is extremely beneficial. As a woman I am aligned with a woman's experience and needs in this world.

Dr. Claire Vines, Psy.D., Psychologist / Licensed /Psychotherapy / Psychoanalytic/
Marriage and Family Therapist, Marriage, Couples, LMFT. Psy.D. Trauma-Focused CBT
Women must recognize that there is no man without a woman. Once upon a time, women were taught that self worth came from men's validation, whether a father, a brother or a husband. Today, women are independent by choice or homemakers by choice. Not that long ago women were not allowed to vote. Now we can run for president. Self confidence, self love, self respect and validation is an ongoing emotional process...Never stop loving...

Roanne de Guia-Samuels
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CChT
Women often carry so much—family responsibilities, expectations, caregiving, cultural pressures, and the need to keep everything together. I work with women who feel exhausted, disconnected from themselves, or whose stress is showing up through anxiety, burnout, body symptoms, or difficult life transitions. Together, we explore the stories and patterns that have shaped you while helping you reconnect with your voice, your body, and what you truly need to heal and thrive.

Chad Cryder
Psychologist, PhD
I was raised by strong women. I saw the struggles and witnessed the physical and emotional abuse women experienced. This was my driving factor in becoming a therapist - help empower women, provide them a safe space to process, and foster their strength. Whether your struggles are with self-defeating beliefs, family struggles, work issues, relationships, trauma, marginalization, and/or feelings of isolation, I believe in your power to grow. Every seed needs fertilizer to grow; now you need to use the fertilizer to thrive.

Mia Turner
Therapist, MA, RYT, ASDCS, LMFT, NPT-C, CMNCS, CMIP
Support for women navigating identity, burnout, caregiving, relationships, life transitions, body changes, reproductive experiences, chronic illness, disability, leadership, self-worth, and the visible and invisible expectations placed upon women across personal, professional, societal, vocational, educational, relational, cultural, and family systems.
This work recognizes that women's experiences do not occur in isolation. They are shaped by the intersections of gender, race, culture, neurodivergence, disability, sexuality, spirituality, socioeconomic realities, family roles, community, and lived experience. Particular attention is given to the ways societal expectations, caregiving demands, perfectionism, people-pleasing, masking, emotional labor, and internalized messages about worth, productivity, appearance, sacrifice, and success can influence wellbeing, identity, relationships, and connection with self.
Exploration may include the impact of hormones and hormonal transitions across the lifespan, including menstruation, PMDD, pregnancy, postpartum experiences, perimenopause, menopause, fertility challenges, reproductive decision-making, and the often-overlooked ways hormones can interact with neurodivergence, sensory experiences, executive functioning, emotional regulation, energy capacity, and nervous system functioning.
My approach integrates EMDR, somatic therapy, mindfulness, polyvagal-informed practices, parts work, neuropsychotherapy, expressive arts, attachment-focused approaches, and liberation-oriented healing. Rather than focusing on helping you adapt to unrealistic expectations, this work invites curiosity about which expectations genuinely align with your values and which may no longer serve you. Attention is given to both the external systems and internalized narratives that shape how you relate to yourself, your body, your needs, your ambitions, and your place in the world.
Therapy offers space to reconnect with your voice, honor your needs, deepen self-trust, and cultivate a more compassionate relationship with yourself. The goal is not simply to function better within systems that may contribute to exhaustion or disconnection, but to create a life that feels more sustainable, authentic, embodied, and aligned with your values, capacity, relationships, and wellbeing.

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.
