Starlain Saldana
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Working with women has been a passion for me since I began my training as a psychologist! A broad theme I see in women is carrying the heavy weight of managing their lives, careers, and families (either family of creation of family of origin). Often, this results in women being over-burdened, stressed, and at times lose touch with their own needs and desires. I want to empower women to make themselves a priority and give space for their own needs and wants in life.

Sara Fraser
Psychologist, PhD
There are many systems in place that negatively impact women in the world, especially women of color. As I have navigated the world as a cisgender woman and have myself come into contact to the ways that systemic oppression impact me, it has informed my work with women to better understand these often invisible systems, how they coerce and pressure us for compliance and how women can push back against these patterns both individually and in community.

Annette Popernik
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
As a woman and a woman of color, our identity is central to our lived experience. We experience things a worldview that has often been imparted to us but is also affected by gender violence, sexism, and stereotypes. I am not here to assume what your experience has been. Even the term "women's issues" is simply a tip of an iceberg. Let's talk about it.

Mary Mesiha
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
Women move through many seasons of life—college, career, marriage, motherhood, menopause, and beyond—and each stage brings its own joys and challenges. You may find yourself redefining your identity, balancing competing roles, or adjusting to unexpected changes. In therapy, you’ll have a supportive space to process these transitions, reconnect with yourself, and find clarity and strength for what’s next. Together, we’ll focus on helping you feel grounded, empowered, and at peace with the person you’re becoming.

W. Katherine Redd
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Do you feel weighed by so many life demands? The expectation to work, care for the family, keep up the home, and so on, can feel draining. Even when you want to feel peaceful and content, instead, you find yourself feeling overwhelmed by stress, burned out, or even debilitated by anxiety. Each day feels like you are being stretched thinner, and you wonder how much more you have left to give. Life doesn’t have to go on this way. Let us work together to help you stay balanced.

Women's Issues
Ashley Pinto
Therapist, LCPC, CCTP
Hormonal transitions such as pregnancy, postpartum, and perimenopause/menopause can profoundly impact a woman’s nervous system, emotional wellbeing, and sense of self. Anxiety, panic, irritability, mood swings, brain fog, exhaustion, or feeling unlike yourself are common during these seasons—not because something is “wrong,” but because your body and brain are adapting to immense internal change while often carrying invisible expectations to keep functioning as usual.
Through integrative somatic therapy, I support women in understanding and working with these shifts rather than pushing through them. Our work focuses on restoring nervous system balance, developing greater flexibility, and increasing capacity for rest, regulation, and self-trust. Therapy becomes a space to reconnect with your strengths and clarify what you need in this season. It’s about meeting yourself where you are, honoring your body’s wisdom, and creating steadiness and resilience in this new chapter of life.
I no longer offer weekly insurance-based 53 minute sessions. After a decade of seeing clients under this model, I've shifted my practice to private pay customized services that better meet the needs of my niche clients. My customized Therapy Intensives are specially designed to offer you a more a more spacious, efficient, and streamlined for a deeper and more transformative experience. They are intended to be short-term and can serve as an adjunct to ongoing therapy with your already established therapist, such as in the case that you really enjoy the work you are doing with them but they do not specialize in an area that I do. I also offer monthly extended sessions (90 minutes to 2 hours) for those looking for a hybrid option, that allows for deeper work as well as ongoing support. Please visit my website for more details on how we can work together.

Bergen Counseling Collective
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
The expectations are relentless. Be successful but not too ambitious. Be a good mother and a good partner and a good daughter and a good employee, and make it all look effortless. Your needs end up last, if they make the list at all. And when you struggle, you wonder what's wrong with you instead of questioning the impossible standards. We work with women navigating the particular pressures that come with being a woman in this world: identity and role transitions, relationship dynamics, body image, reproductive challenges, career and family tensions, and the simple exhaustion of doing too much for too long. Telehealth throughout Illinois. BCBS PPO and Aetna accepted.

Jonathan Schnapp
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Women often navigate complex and sometimes conflicting expectations—around relationships, work, caregiving, identity, and self-worth. Therapy offers a space to slow down and make sense of these pressures, as well as the emotional experiences that can accompany them, such as anxiety, self-doubt, burnout, or feeling overwhelmed. Together, we’ll explore these patterns with curiosity and care, helping you deepen your understanding of yourself and find ways of relating—to yourself and others—that feel more grounded, flexible, and aligned with who you are.
