Marriage and Family Therapist, Marriage, Couples, LMFT. Psy.D. Trauma-Focused CBT
Women must recognize that there is no man without a woman. Once upon a time, women were taught that self worth came from men's validation, whether a father, a brother or a husband. Today, women are independent by choice or homemakers by choice. Not that long ago women were not allowed to vote. Now we can run for president. Self confidence, self love, self respect and validation is an ongoing emotional process...Never stop loving...

Life Coach, WAPP
Woman: Fight your urge for perfectionism! Many women suffer from the compulsion to deliver even better results. There is nothing wrong with that in principle, but it often leads to delays and excessive workloads. In order for women to get into leadership positions, they have to leave perfectionism at home and learn to sometimes just be content.
Perceive your inner family
By establishing contact and this communication with our body, we create the prerequisite for a serious change in the way we treat ourselves. We trace our prohibitions in order to be able to give permission where we have been restricted up to now. Let us now look at those parts of ourselves that restrict us: we find them in our inner family.
Strengthen your own personality in the long term
On the basis of a fairy tale ("The Seal Woman"), we work out the gaps and pitfalls of our own personality in a playful way, step by step.
Through various exercises and role plays, the female participants become aware of their own identity.
The goal is to return to the origin, to the natural "wild" nature of the woman.
The further goal is to learn to be independent and to determine one's own life, both in good and difficult times.
We know sentences like: "Be modest; adapt yourself; don't think too much; don't get the idea of getting out of line; be kind and say yes, even if it hurts and if you are almost choking on the word...".
To follow such a loveless value system in our society leads to extreme inner conflict.
"If we give up our true needs to exchange ourselves for the comfort of a golden cage, we will be grafted with the views of the dried-up old perfectionists". (Clarissa Pinkola Estès)

"A woman hungry for her true soul life may appear elegant and well-fed from the outside, but inside she is a wide open throat with pleadingly outstretched arms and claws". (Clarissa Pinkola Estès)

Liza Roth, MA, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I often joke with my clients that being a woman is like playing a game called 'What's Wrong With Me Today?' Between familial and societal expectations, gendered issues, beauty standards, hormone changes, systems that strip us of our rights, our patriarchal society, women against women, it's no wonder we find ourselves anxious, depressed, and overwhelmed. Therapy can be a place for you to explore what you really need in a safe, non-judgmental environment where you are welcome to show up however you want to show up.
