Margaret Graham
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LCPC, LPCC
The contradictory expectations placed on women create unique psychological challenges—be confident but not intimidating, be ambitious but always available, take care of yourself but always prioritize others. My work with women acknowledges these complex social realities while creating space to define authentic values and boundaries. Through therapeutic exploration and targeted hypnotic work, we address issues including body image concerns, self-esteem challenges, relationship dynamics, and identity integration. This specialty focuses on helping women navigate societal expectations while developing internal resources to define success and worth on their own terms—creating lives of greater authenticity and fulfillment despite contradictory external messages.

Friendly Psychology, LLC ~ Rachel W. Friendly, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
Being a woman in the world is not easy! From the time we are born, we are socialized to be as small as possible: small appetites, small opinions, small voices, small bodies. We are to smile and take care of others. We are to never get angry and never complain. We are simultaneously not enough and too much, all at once - and how is that even possible? That's why I specialize in working with women's issues in therapy. If this sounds like you, let's work together to help you take your power back and build a life in which you get to be yourself, in all your expansiveness and beauty.
