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.

Andrea Miller
Counselor/Therapist, NCC
As a therapist, I approach women's issues with empathy and understanding, integrating Narrative Therapy to help my clients rewrite their narratives and redefine their identities in a way that empowers them. Through Person-Centered Therapy, I create a nurturing and validating environment where women feel safe to explore their emotions and experiences without fear of judgment. Drawing from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), I guide my clients in embracing their thoughts and feelings while taking meaningful steps towards living a life that aligns with their values and aspirations.

Gayle MacBride
Psychologist, PhD, LP
My clients have always found me to be relatable due to my transparent and approachable style. I have specialized in women's issues because I'm a passionate advocate and believer in what women can bring to the table. We have long had to fight for so much and as we reveal the layers of society, I think we learn how this has impacted us on a deep level. Even with this work we are still professionals, parents, and caregivers, sometimes all at the same time. See me to talk about these issue and to think about what might work for you to develop a healthy relationship with yourself and the world at large.

Jess Williams
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSS, LCSW
The world has a lot of "rules" for women - how we should act, speak, dress, work, love, and show up in everyday life. And sometimes, we're so steeped in these messages that it becomes hard to even know what we believe anymore. Whether you're feeling unsure about what you're looking for in a relationship, having trouble asserting yourself at work, experiencing challenges related to physical stressors, or dealing with other people in your life who think you 'should' be doing something differently - I can help.
Starting therapy can be anxiety-provoking at times, which is why I offer free consultations to all prospective clients. You can book a free 20 minute phone call directly on my website, and I'll reach out to you right away to confirm. We can chat about what you're looking for support with AND make sure everything feels like a good fit before scheduling an intake. I can't wait to connect with you!

Dr. Kelsi Clayson
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Daughters, sisters, mothers, partners, confidants, innovators, storytellers, trailblazers. There is no shortage of roles that women take on throughout life. These roles are often embraced with immeasurable heart and grit and little-to-no complaint. And yet, struggle exists. You may be hesitant to discuss these issues, or you may feel like screaming them from the rooftops. Either way, I’d love to hear them. Too often, women carry shame, guilt, and self-criticism on top of the day-to-day stress of juggling it all. From difficulties surrounding career, pregnancy, childbirth, and motherhood to the lasting effects of abuse and interpersonal trauma, therapy can provide a much-needed space to process these experiences. I am deeply passionate about women’s advocacy and empowerment and have trained extensively in women’s mental health.

Whether you are trying to navigate the world of dating and finding yourself in the same upsetting patterns, navigating anxiety and/or depression, struggling with building friendship and community, struggling with job applications and interviews, battling imposter syndrome at work, experiencing the often silent and heavy grief of miscarriage, frustrated in your relationship, struggling with mom guilt/perfectionism or navigating peri/menopause, I support women with all of the issues that we experience as women across the lifespan.

Taylor Allie
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC
When treating women's issues, creating a safe and empathetic space for women to explore their unique experiences and concerns without judgment is essential in sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques can be employed to address specific cognitive distortions or negative thought patterns related to women's issues, such as imposter syndrome or body image concerns. Integrative therapy may incorporate elements of DBT, internal family systems, and somatic therapy to holistically address women's issues, considering the interplay of psychological, interpersonal, and cultural factors in the client's life.

Dr. Jennifer McManus
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist, PLLC
Does this sound familiar? You want to feel peaceful and content, but instead you find yourself feeling: overwhelmed by stress, totally burned out, or even debilitated by anxiety. It’s been hard for you to manage the emotional toll of constant and often unrealistic demands. You can rarely find a moment to stop and catch your breath. Each day feels like you are being stretched a bit thinner and you wonder how much you have left to give. Life doesn’t have to go on this way. Hi, I’m Dr. Jennifer McManus and I help ambitious women find relief from stress, burnout, anxiety, and deep emotional pain. It is my mission to provide scientifically informed psychotherapy without sacrificing compassion and genuine concern.

Dr. Patricia Webbink
Psychologist, MA and PhD in Clinical Psychology
For 50 years I have specialized in women's issues in psychotherapy. I was the first Feminist Therapist in the Washington, DC metro area. I specialize in women's issues, and have presented on this subject at the Association for Humanistic Psychology as well as the American Psychological Association. I have also given talks all over the United States on Feminist Therapy. I was featured on the front page of the "Outlook" section of The Washington Post on this topic. In addition, I conducted the initial training for the staff of the Rape Crisis Center in the early 1970's. I also taught a class on Women's studies for The George Washington University, and American University. In addition, I gave talks on Feminist Therapy to the Brookings Institute and different colleges and universities. I have written articles for "Off Our Backs" and have chapters in "The Radical Therapist" and "Rough Times". I also organized a Feminist Therapy Conference in Washington, D.C. You are welcome to attend my regular free zoom webinars. Please feel free to call for further information and/or a consultation: 301-229-8000.

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.

Amanda Shrekenhamer
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, LPC
Helping mothers of young children find balance in their lives is a passion of mine. Whether you find yourself carrying more than your share of the “mental load”, or feel isolated as a new parent, I am here to support you and find ways to navigate these difficult times.
I also have experience supporting women who are experiencing infertility. Infertility can be a devastating experience. It can be a time of grief. It can also be a time of stress while navigating an expensive and complicated medical system. I meet you wherever you are in your journey.

Dr. Brittany Jacobson
Psychologist, PhD, CST
Many women carry the weight of expectations from relationships, culture, and internalized beliefs about who they “should” be. In therapy, we will explore these influences and how they shape your sense of self, boundaries, and voice. I will help you develop greater freedom, authenticity, and compassionate connection to yourself and your body.

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.
