Women's Issues therapists in Tujunga, California CA
Jennie Steinberg - feminist, queer-affirming therapist
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPCC, PMH-C
I work with clients of all genders from a feminist perspective, which means that we consider the ways in which rigid gender roles and expectations are harmful to everyone. But this is particularly true for women and trans and nonbinary people. Women and female-socialized people are taught to be empathic caretakers, but we forget to make sure to take care of ourselves, and often find that others don't take care of us. We're told we can "have it all" but we're not given supports that make "it all" sustainable or even, perhaps, desirable. So often, if we feel broken, the reality of the situation is that we're perfectly functional, but broken systems are failing us. My feminism is trans-inclusive and conscious of intersectionality. In addition to supporting people who are struggling with these broader issues, I am also a certified perinatal mental health professional.
I bring both my professional background and my lived experience to supporting people with uteruses who are coping with infertility or fertility treatments, pregnancy (including high-risk pregnancy), and the postpartum transition, ranging from identity questions and baby blues to postpartum depression and anxiety. If you feel like you could use some support in the monumental task of "existing while female," reach out. I look forward to meeting you soon!

Claudia Owens Shields
Psychologist, M.A., Ph.D.
I am aware that as women, we have a unique set of experiences that are often ignored in a male-dominated society. We are often paid less for more work in the workplace and in some homes, our contributions are taken for granted. We are powerful and brilliant in ways that are often minimized, and so when working with women I often find that it is helpful that I take a "strengths-based" perspective.

Living in a world designed by and mostly for men, can make being a women very hard at times. The challenge to be heard, AND understood is often overwhelming. I can support you through dating, unwanted pregnancy, fertility issues, pregnancy, postpartum, menopause, career limitations, gender expression and much more. Together we can create the space you need to explore what is important to you and not just what society tells you a women should be.

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.
