Paula Kirsch
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CST
Women are often told that what they are experiencing is just part of life. I tend to disagree. I work with women navigating sexuality, identity, body image, life transitions, relationships, and the particular weight of holding everything together while quietly struggling. You deserve a space where you do not have to minimize any of it.

Transitions Liaison Global - Laura K. Ellis
Hypnotherapist, D.A. Hyp
Women have been suppressed for centuries. We, as a collective, need to understand what we are capable of, which is much more than we were led to believe.

Greta Klaber
Marriage and Family Therapist, Ma, LMFT
I’m passionate about supporting women as they navigate the unique and often underacknowledged challenges that come with living in a gendered world. My work includes addressing issues related to women’s health, reproductive choices, fertility, pregnancy, and the complexities of identity, care work, and societal expectations. I believe specialized care for women is essential, and I strive to create a space that’s thoughtful, informed, and grounded in both emotional and cultural awareness. Whether you’re moving through a major transition or simply seeking support in reconnecting with yourself, this work is centered on honoring your experience and helping you feel more supported and understood.

Women often carry many competing roles and expectations while trying to make space for their own needs, identity, and well-being. Our therapists work with women facing concerns such as anxiety, depression, relationships, self-esteem, body image, fertility, motherhood, career pressure, life transitions, perfectionism, and changing family roles. Therapy offers a supportive place to step away from outside expectations, better understand what you want, and explore the patterns that may be holding you back. We help clients strengthen boundaries, build confidence, improve relationships, and create a life that feels more authentic and fulfilling.

Cicek Erdem
Psychologist, PhD
Women’s emotional lives are often shaped by competing expectations around relationships, caregiving, motherhood, work, identity, and the body. I work with women navigating fertility challenges, pregnancy and postpartum concerns, relationship difficulties, midlife transitions, perimenopause, and evolving questions of identity and self-worth. Together, we can explore not only the immediate challenges, but also the deeper emotional patterns and life experiences shaping how you move through them.

Sarah Gersick
Psychologist, Ph.D.
When new stressors arise, they can activate old patterns that make it hard to cope in a healthy way. Our social context, including factors like gender and discrimination, adds additional stress outside our control. It helps to have a place to talk through current and past issues through the lens of identity. I am an experienced psychodynamic psychologist who can help you with this, so you can reduce distress you are feeling now, and make deep changes that lead to better coping in the future. Queer and trans affirming.

Diane Vaillancourt
Pre-Licensed Professional, M.A., psychotherapist, Life Coach
Women went through changes during this last century. Women had and have to face discrimination, lower salary/less opportunity and sexual discrimination at work. There is always a fear to speak about it so instead it is repressed which has devastating impact on their self-esteem. It is important for women to identify these issues and to empower themselves.

Melissa Klass M.A., LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT #119163
Being a woman in America in 2024 is not easy. A mentor of mine once said that she did not envy my experience as a woman today. She grew up in a different time, a time when she was expected to be a good mother for her children and a responsible homemaker for her husband. Today, beyond these roles, there is a subtle, quiet undercurrent of expectations including, but by no means limited to, being a “good” wife, sister, friend, and neighbor (what does “good” mean anyway?), a career woman, an impromptu party host with a meticulous home (cook, housekeeper, etc.), and a selfless volunteer in the community, all while maintaining a size 2 figure. How can we possibly manage all this and more? Together we can explore the expectations you have of yourself as well as your place in today's world.

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.

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.
