Friendly Psychology, LLC ~ Rachel W. Friendly, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
Being a woman in the world is not easy! From the time we are born, we are socialized to be as small as possible: small appetites, small opinions, small voices, small bodies. We are to smile and take care of others. We are to never get angry and never complain. We are simultaneously not enough and too much, all at once - and how is that even possible? That's why I specialize in working with women's issues in therapy. If this sounds like you, let's work together to help you take your power back and build a life in which you get to be yourself, in all your expansiveness and beauty.

Catherine Quiring
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, LMHC, LPC, LCPC
Women's lives are full of invisible labor, relational complexity, and pressure to shrink. I work with women who are tired of performing okayness — women ready to grieve what needs grieving, reclaim what was lost, and step into who they actually are.

Hormones are often misunderstood and pathologized. We know how impactful and stressful hormonal imbalances can be. We work with women to understand their bodies more deeply. We prefer to work alongside other holistic specialists in this field if we suspect a hormone imbalance may be occurring and will make the proper referral if necessary.

Tricia Mazza
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
I specialize in women’s issues, particularly for those who find themselves in confusing, one-sided, or emotionally manipulative relationships. Many of the women I work with are high-achieving and deeply empathetic, yet struggle with self-doubt, over-functioning, and difficulty trusting their own instincts. I help you make sense of patterns rooted in narcissistic dynamics, codependency, and family-of-origin experiences—especially for first-generation women carrying unspoken expectations. My approach is direct, insight-oriented, and active, combining emotional exploration with practical tools that support clear boundaries and lasting change. Together, we focus on helping you name what you’re experiencing so you can move forward with clarity, confidence, and a stronger sense of self.

Dianne Gallo, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Moving through the world as a woman — especially in the current cultural and political context — can bring up a range of feelings and experiences. I'm curious about your experience of your social identities, including gender, and how they impact your lived experience. Prior to becoming a therapist, I worked with Global Fund for Women and served as a post-abortion counselor with Exhale Pro Voice. I've completed training with Gen Sex on gender, consent, and sexual health. I have experience working with a range of issues including fertility, ambivalence around whether to become a parent, sexual assault, abusive relationships, PMDD, trauma, anxiety, and other issues.

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.

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.

Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with women who are carrying a lot in their inner and relational lives, often alongside demanding careers. Many are navigating dating, long‑term partnerships, or separation; complex family dynamics; and the expectations placed on them at work and at home. You may be trying to sort out what you want in relationships, noticing patterns you don’t want to keep repeating, or feeling the strain of ongoing stress and conflict. Some women I work with are also living with ADHD and want support in how it affects their daily life, work, and relationships. I also see a smaller number of women who are parenting and facing similar questions in the context of family life.
In our work together, we make room for your experience, not just your responsibilities. We look at how expectations, gendered roles, stress, and relationship dynamics are affecting your mood, body, and sense of self, and we explore ways of relating to yourself and others that feel more sustainable and truthful for you. This is a confidential space where you do not have to hold it all together, and where your needs and limits are allowed to matter.
