Sound Mind Sound Body LLC
Psychologist, MPsy, PsyD
Women's issues are ones that are not specific to women, but can be-such as the reality of living in a patriarchy and how that affects well-being. Additionally, as someone who specializes in chronic health issues, women's health is another factor that suffers under a system that typically tends to downplay or dismiss experiences that are valid. Whether there are reproductive health concerns, challenges to identity, or stressors related to systems, I wish to support and improve well-being.

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.

Eric Weinstein
Life Coach, Hypnosis and NLP, shamanic healing, Energy Psychology (including "tapping"), Voice Dialogue
It might seem strange for a man to list women’s issues as a specialty, but it was the mistreatment of women in my life that inspired me to research alternatives to mainstream medicine and mental health.
I don’t claim to have special insights into women’s issues, but as a member of a “target” group myself (I’m a man of color, and a short one at that.), I relate to some of the societal “isms” that women face. A girlfriend once said “You think more like a woman than any man I’ve known.” I think she was exasperated, but I was complimented.
Maybe this is why I attract a higher percentage of female clients (especially female therapists!) than most males in a therapeutic role, and why I’ve long had more female friends than male friends.
I’m a reasonably enlightened guy who’s proud to say I’m a feminist (although I also work well and respectfully with women who are politically and religiously traditional and/or conservative).
So, if you think it might help to have a male perspective and (depending on your age) some healthy father energy in your life, get in touch.

Beth Janis
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Being a woman in this day and age can bring so many different layers of challenge and difficulty. In our work together, we can walk through the different issues that you are facing while deepening insight into the strategies you've developed throughout your life to adapt to life's demands. While these strategies were often necessary in the moment, they sometimes just don't work so well for us as time goes on or as the situation changes. Our sessions focus on building insight into your patterns, the messages/beliefs you may hold about yourself and others, and strategies to help you take the steps that are meaningful to you.

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.

Susan Spicer
Psychologist, PhD
In my practice, I am deeply committed to providing compassionate and effective therapy to individuals grappling with a wide spectrum of women's issues. Drawing from years of experience and a profound understanding of the complexities surrounding these challenges, my approach is rooted in empathy, empowerment, and a focus on tailored solutions.
Recognizing that every woman's journey is unique, I prioritize creating a safe and non-judgmental space where clients can explore their concerns and experiences openly. Whether it's addressing mental health conditions like depression and anxiety, helping clients navigate the complexities of body image and self-esteem, or providing support to survivors of trauma and abuse, I approach each case with sensitivity and a client-centered focus.
In the realm of relationships, I work closely with individuals to foster healthier dynamics, improve communication, and build resilience. Women often face unique workplace stressors, and I offer strategies for managing career-related challenges, gender disparities, and the delicate balance between professional and personal life.
Reproductive health, a significant aspect of women's well-being, is another area of expertise. I provide guidance and support during transitions such as fertility concerns, pregnancy, and postpartum experiences, ensuring that clients have the resources and coping strategies they need.
I am mindful of the intersectionality of women's issues, recognizing that identity, culture, and background play pivotal roles in shaping one's experiences. My therapy approach is culturally sensitive and inclusive, taking into account the diverse backgrounds and identities of my clients.
Ultimately, my goal is to empower women to overcome the obstacles they face, fostering self-acceptance, resilience, and personal growth. Through a combination of evidence-based therapeutic techniques, mind-body work, and a strengths-based approach, I strive to help my clients live fulfilling lives and navigate the unique challenges and opportunities that come their way.

Emily Blitz
Psychologist, PsyD
Women’s experiences are often shaped by complex layers of early relationships, internalized expectations, and relational patterns that influence identity, self-worth, and connection. As a Licensed Clinical Psychologist and Perinatal Mental Health Certified (PMH-C) clinician, I have extensive experience supporting women across life stages. My work draws on private practice, a full-time clinical internship at a transitional housing program for formerly incarcerated women, and a background in women’s studies, allowing me to approach each woman’s experience with understanding, empathy, and attention to both emotional and relational well-being. In our work, we explore these dynamics in a supportive, reflective space, attending to both conscious feelings and the unconscious processes that may influence us. Approached with curiosity and respect, this work can foster deeper self-understanding, emotional integration, and a stronger sense of agency in your 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.
