Jennifer Pudlo Therapy & Wellness Consulting
Marriage and Family Therapist, MS, LMFT
Women face unique emotional, relational, and life-stage challenges that can impact their mental health, identity, and overall well-being. I provide a compassionate, supportive space for women navigating concerns such as infertility, pregnancy and postpartum, perimenopause, relationship difficulties, body image concerns, anxiety, and major life transitions, helping them better understand themselves and build resilience through each season of life. My goal is to empower you to reconnect with your strengths, embrace your authentic self, and create a life that feels balanced, meaningful, and fulfilling.

Erika Shershun
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I work with female identified clients who are looking for support in managing fears or making decisions around dating, marriage, open or poly relationships, pregnancy, IVF, and menopause. I also support women who bring in issues that impact them sexually in relation to being a survivor of sexual trauma.

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.

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.

Susanna La
Psychologist, Ph.D.
We live in a society and culture(s) that often silence, objectify, and oppress women. If we speak up for ourselves, we can be labeled negatively so to survive, we may have learned to dim our own light. We are often taught to be selfless, to nurture, and to constantly give. When we take the much needed moment for ourselves, we can be labeled as selfish. It can feel like whatever we do, it is never enough. If you want to work with someone to support you as you reclaim your power and express your voice in a safe and supportive therapeutic space, you may enjoy working with me. 'When women support each other, incredible things happen.'

Hypnotherapist, PhD

Tracy Sachs (Singh)
Therapist, MA, AMFT
In our current patriarchal society, there are very few models for how to be a strong, feminine woman. With a lack of obvious models and archetypes to draw from, women often either take on the masculine hero's journey as their own or feel disempowered and weak. By drawing upon myths and archetypes, we can explore the heroine's journey of feminine power and apply it to the lived realities of life in areas such as motherhood, career, relationships, marriage, boundaries, and purpose.

Dr. Ingrid Solano
Psychologist, PhD
Many women come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or quietly disconnected from themselves. You may be juggling relationships, family, work, and expectations—often putting your own needs last. Therapy offers a space just for you: to slow down, be honest, and explore what you’re carrying without guilt or judgment. I work with women navigating anxiety, depression, self-doubt, relationship stress, identity shifts, and the emotional weight of caregiving. Together, we focus on helping you feel more grounded, confident, and connected to who you are and what you want, so you can move through your life with greater clarity and self-trust.

Sandy Kong

Therapists focus on building self-esteem, managing life transitions, and navigating relationship dynamics, aiming to empower women to overcome burnout, gender-based discrimination, and internalized pressures.

Whether that's - Life Transitions & Family: Parenting struggles, infertility, pregnancy loss, postpartum depression, menopause, and menopause-related hormonal shifts.
Work-Life Integration: Balancing careers with family, managing "Super Woman" syndrome (trying to "do it all"), career burnout, and workplace inequalities.

San Jose sits at the heart of Silicon Valley, where the pressures of the tech industry — performance anxiety, imposter syndrome, and the psychological cost of relentless innovation culture — drive significant demand for therapists experienced in high-achievement environments. The city's large South Asian and East Asian communities mean culturally competent therapists who understand the intersection of immigrant identity, family expectations, and mental health are particularly sought after. Santa Clara Valley Medical Center and Kaiser Permanente provide institutional mental health resources alongside a growing independent therapy community. Many South Bay therapists offer evening and weekend hours to accommodate the demanding work schedules common in the tech sector.
