Women often face unique challenges throughout different stages of life, including stress, anxiety, perfectionism, relationship concerns, caregiving responsibilities, career demands, pregnancy or postpartum adjustments, infertility, grief, and hormonal changes that can affect emotional well-being.

I work with women struggling with many issues including anxiety and depression, parenting, codependency, body image, sexual abuse, and relationship violence. I also work with many high-achieving, successful women who are struggling with anxiety, self-esteem, perfectionism, shame, and relationship issues.

Mary Gonzalez
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Women often carry multiple roles and responsibilities, balancing careers, relationships, caregiving, family expectations, and personal goals while trying to care for everyone around them. Over time, these demands can lead to anxiety, depression, burnout, chronic stress, low self-esteem, relationship challenges, and feeling disconnected from yourself. You may find yourself putting your own needs last, struggling with boundaries, or wondering why you feel overwhelmed despite doing everything you can.
At Holding Space Therapy, we provide a compassionate, supportive space where women can openly explore the challenges they're facing without judgment. Whether you're navigating life transitions, relationship concerns, motherhood, infertility, pregnancy or postpartum adjustment, grief, trauma, workplace stress, or questions surrounding identity and self-worth, therapy is tailored to your unique experiences and goals. Using evidence-based approaches such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness, and trauma-informed care, we'll work together to process difficult experiences, strengthen emotional regulation, develop healthy boundaries, reduce anxiety, and build greater confidence and resilience. If past trauma or unhealthy relationship patterns continue to influence your present, therapy can help you heal those underlying wounds while creating new ways of responding to life's challenges.
Our approach is collaborative and culturally responsive, recognizing that every woman's experiences are shaped by her personal history, relationships, culture, values, and identities. We strive to create an affirming environment where you feel heard, respected, and empowered to make choices that align with your authentic self. You deserve support just as much as the people you care for. Therapy offers an opportunity to reconnect with your strengths, prioritize your well-being, and create a life that reflects your values, needs, and goals. Healing is possible, and you don't have to navigate life's challenges alone.
