Many women struggle with trying to be all things to all people. Maintaining a career, raising children, and caring for elderly parents can often be issues that they face. Setting boundaries and self-care are some of the interventions that are explored in counseling.

Dorothy Brown
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I have been a feminist since I was born, or at least since college. I have worked with women regarding discrimination. While women are clearly the stronger sex, able to be in touch with their intuition and able to bring the magic to life, they are often undervalued. I work with women to see their strengths, their innate wisdom and regain their power.

Samantha Tomer, LLC
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.Ed., LPC, NCC
Women often carry the weight of many roles — partner, professional, caregiver, daughter, friend — while trying to hold themselves together through it all. This pressure can feel exhausting and lonely, especially during times of transition or change. In therapy, I provide a confidential, supportive space to pause, reflect, and reconnect with yourself. Together, we’ll explore your values, boundaries, and goals so you can step into your life with more clarity, balance, and confidence.

Dr. Megan Marks
Psychologist, PhD
You’ve spent years showing up, taking care of others, and getting things done—even when it meant setting your own needs aside. But lately, something feels off. Maybe you’re feeling more irritable, foggy, anxious, or exhausted than usual. Your body and mind are shifting, and the strategies that once helped no longer seem to work. Whether you're navigating identity changes, caregiving fatigue, high-functioning burnout, or the often-disorienting symptoms of perimenopause, you deserve support that sees the full picture.
I work with women, femmes, and gender-expansive adults who are carrying a lot—from caretaking and career demands to invisible labor and internalized expectations. Many of my clients are high-achieving, thoughtful, and deeply capable—and still find themselves feeling burned out, anxious, over-functioning, and disconnected from themselves. Contact me for a free 15 minute consultation!
In therapy, we’ll explore the complex emotional landscape of midlife—where physical, emotional, and existential shifts converge. This may include hormonal changes, mood swings, grief, rage, shifting roles, and the pressure to “age gracefully” in a culture that minimizes your pain. These experiences are often compounded by neurodivergence, trauma, or societal pressures around gender, body, and productivity.
This is a space to make sense of what you’re experiencing—not as a personal failing, but as a signal that something deeper needs tending. Here, you have permission to be messy, complex, and real. Together, we’ll examine how early relational dynamics, internalized expectations, overlooked neurodivergence, and systemic messages about womanhood shape how you show up for others—and for yourself. We’ll get clear on what’s shifting, what still matters, and what needs to change so you can show up more fully for you.
With over 15 years of experience, I help clients move from self-doubt and depletion toward clarity, compassion, and a renewed sense of agency. Whether you’re unlearning old patterns, adjusting to hormonal shifts, or simply craving a space to rest and be real, I’m here. We’ll also work toward a version of self-care that isn’t performative—but deeply nourishing and sustainable.

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.

Marina Goldenberg
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, LMHC
“It is literally impossible to be a woman… We have to always be extraordinary, but somehow we’re always doing it wrong. You have to be thin, but not too thin. And you can never say you want to be thin. You have to say you want to be healthy, but also you have to be thin. You have to have money, but you can’t ask for money because that’s crass. You have to be a boss, but you can’t be mean. You have to lead, but you can’t squash other people’s ideas. You’re supposed to love being a mother, but don’t talk about your kids all the damn time. You have to be a career woman, but also always be looking out for other people. You have to answer for men’s bad behavior, which is insane, but if you point that out, you’re accused of complaining. You’re supposed to stay pretty for men, but not so pretty that you tempt them too much or that you threaten other women because you’re supposed to be a part of the sisterhood. But always stand out and always be grateful. But never forget that the system is rigged. So find a way to acknowledge that but also always be grateful. You have to never get old, never be rude, never show off, never be selfish, never fall down, never fail, never show fear, never get out of line. It’s too hard! It’s too contradictory and nobody gives you a medal or says thank you! And it turns out in fact that not only are you doing everything wrong, but also everything is your fault.” There's a reason that this speech from the Barbie movie hit so many women so hard -we don't often get to see our struggle so loudly expressed in such a big way. Being a woman does feel so impossible sometimes, and yet, women still have to figure it out somehow. The first step is believing that you are important enough to put yourself on your own priority list, and not be an afterthought. In my work, I help women explore who they have been, who they are today, and who they might want to be eventually. I help women identify what, or who, is standing in their way, and make changes in their lives to navigate these obstacles. Sometimes we can change things, and sometimes we can only change the way we react to them. Either way, women are more capable than they believe, and I love helping my clients learn just what they are capable of when they start to dismantle the outdated and unhelpful thoughts, beliefs and behaviors that keep them from feeling better.

Deborah Ejiofor
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC
Treating women's issues in therapy involves addressing the unique challenges women face, such as balancing personal, professional, and family responsibilities, navigating societal pressures, and dealing with issues like self-esteem, body image, or gender-based discrimination. Therapy provides a safe space for women to explore these challenges, develop coping skills, and build resilience. Therapeutic approaches help individuals gain clarity, set boundaries, and prioritize self-care. The goal is to empower women to embrace their strengths, heal from past experiences, and cultivate a sense of well-being and self-worth.

Chrissie Chua- Ly van manh
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC-D, LPC
A large portion of my practice is made up of women navigating different stages of life- from young adulthood and career-building years to partnership, motherhood, and beyond. Across these stages, many women I work with are carrying what is often described as an “invisible load"- the emotional, mental, and relational labor of managing not only their own lives, but also the needs, expectations, and wellbeing of others.
Many of my clients are high-achieving and deeply responsible, yet feel the pressure of constantly having to hold everything together while also meeting often unrealistic societal expectations. This can include navigating gender-based pressures, inequality in relationships or workplaces, caregiving demands, and the ongoing tension between personal needs and external responsibilities.
In our work together, we also explore how men and women are often socialized differently, which can shape communication styles, emotional expression, conflict patterns, and expectations within relationships. When helpful, we look at how these differences may contribute to misunderstandings or tension in relationships with partners, friends, or colleagues, and we work on ways to communicate more clearly, assertively, and effectively across these dynamics.
We also examine internalized expectations, perfectionism, self-sacrifice patterns, and the impact of broader societal and cultural pressures on identity and self-worth. Over time, therapy can help create more space for self-advocacy, boundaries, rest, and authenticity.
My goal is to support women in feeling more seen, supported, and empowered in their lives- helping them reconnect with their own needs and voice while navigating the complexity of the roles they hold.

Full Being Services
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LPC, LCSW, LAPC
We support women navigating the emotional, relational, and societal pressures that impact mental health across the lifespan. Many women carry layered responsibilities, expectations, and unspoken stress related to caregiving, career, relationships, identity, and systemic inequities. Our work creates space to slow down, reconnect, and heal without judgment.
We provide trauma-informed, culturally responsive care for women experiencing anxiety, depression, burnout, life transitions, relationship challenges, reproductive or parenting stress, and identity shifts. Therapy focuses on strengthening self-worth, boundaries, emotional regulation, and voice—while honoring the cultural, familial, and social contexts that shape each woman’s experience.
Women’s issues counseling at Full Being Services is collaborative and empowering, supporting women in reclaiming balance, clarity, and a sense of wholeness that reflects who they are—not just what is expected of them.
