Dr. Colby Cohen-Archer
Psychologist, PhD
While my specialty is in pregnancy and postpartum, I support women navigating life transitions, relationship challenges, and emotional or identity concerns. Superwoman is no longer an ideal, but culture often tells us it is, leaving us feeling overwhelmed, unsure of priorities, or like we are unable to find balance in caring for others, work, and caring for ourselves. I provide a compassionate collaborative space to explore your goals, process emotions, and strengthen your understanding of yourself and what is most important to you. Together we can explore strategies for finding balance, making changes, and finding a sense of control in the chaos.

Gerry Letendre
Hypnotherapist, RPh, MBA, CHt
Women often juggle multiple roles and responsibilities while managing expectations related to work, family, relationships, and self-care. Over time, this can contribute to stress, anxiety, self-doubt, burnout, or feeling disconnected from one’s own needs. These challenges are often influenced by deeply ingrained patterns at a subconscious level.
My approach to working with women’s issues is individualized and collaborative. Hypnosis provides a supportive space to address concerns such as anxiety, stress, confidence, self-esteem, life transitions, and emotional balance. Each session is tailored to the individual’s goals, experiences, and circumstances, allowing change to occur in a way that feels respectful and empowering.
Clients often seek hypnosis during periods of transition, increased stress, or when long-standing patterns no longer serve them. Hypnosis offers a drug-free, complementary approach that helps clients remain aware and in control while developing greater calm, clarity, and confidence.
This work is not a replacement for medical or mental health care, and I do not recommend changing prescribed medications without consulting a healthcare provider. When appropriate, hypnosis can be used alongside other professional support to help women feel more grounded, resilient, and connected to themselves.

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.
