Yael Sherne, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
My practice helps women find their inner voice, strength and agency. Many of my clients are mothers who are experiencing depression or anxiety, relationship challenges, and struggling with the demands that society places upon them - the expectation that they should do it all, and do it all perfectly. Together we will work to find the intuitive guidance and authentic self that lies within, the self that knows you alone are enough.

Philip Starkman
Registered Psychotherapist, MSW, RSW
In my practice, I provide a nurturing and respectful space for women navigating the unique challenges and transitions that can arise throughout their lives. With a holistic approach that includes Mindfulness, the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Role-Playing, I support women in exploring and addressing issues such as relationship dynamics, self-esteem, career pressures, motherhood, and life transitions. Mindfulness helps cultivate a present-moment awareness and acceptance, EFT offers a method for managing emotional stress, IFS allows for an exploration of internal parts and their roles, CBT challenges unhelpful patterns of thinking and behavior, and Role-Playing enhances coping skills in real-life scenarios. My role is to guide and empower women through these experiences, providing tools and insights to foster resilience, personal growth, and a deeper understanding of themselves. Together, we work towards not only resolving immediate concerns but also building a foundation for lasting well-being and fulfillment.

Women wear many hats, and at times, it can be overwhelming. Self-care gets lost in the shuffle, while meeting the needs of everyone else becomes routine. You don't have to do it all. Let's find that healthy balance together.

Stephanie Brumfield
Therapist, MSW, ASW, PPSC
In the intimate journey of healing and self-discovery, my practice stands as a sanctuary for women confronting the multifaceted dimensions of the mother wound and its profound impact on their sense of self and relational dynamics. This nuanced approach extends beyond the immediate challenges of motherhood, delving deep into the legacy of maternal relationships that shape our experiences as women—from feelings of inadequacy and unresolved anger to the profound yearning for a nurturing connection that was absent.
Acknowledging the intricate ways in which the mother wound intertwines with the stages of womanhood, I provide a compassionate, supportive space for women at all points of their life journey. Whether grappling with the emotional aftermath of reproductive choices, such as abortions or pregnancy terminations, navigating the complexities of becoming a mother, or seeking to heal from painful childhoods and ancestral traumas, my practice is dedicated to fostering healing, empowerment, and self-reclamation.
Central to this work is the exploration of the mother wound, aiming to break the cycles of pain and misunderstanding that bind us. Through this lens, we address not just the personal narratives of hurt and longing but also the broader societal expectations and stigmas that influence our self-perception and relationships. My goal is to guide women through this deeply transformative process, offering insights and therapeutic interventions that illuminate the path to healing, self-acceptance, and the ability to form healthier, more fulfilling relationships.
This holistic, empathetic approach is designed to support women in reclaiming their power, voice, and worth, enabling them to move forward with a renewed sense of wholeness and authenticity. Here, in a space where the unspoken and unseen are brought to light, the journey toward healing the mother wound becomes a pivotal step in embracing a liberated, empowered sense of self.
