Julia Simmons
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Emotional and physical well-being is important to everyone regardless of gender, however there are particular concerns that are exclusive or more prevalent among women. This can be due to biological influences as well as psychosocial factors. Though not an all encompassing list, some concerns that I can uniquely connect with women on are: Postpartum depression, anxiety, or psychosis, infertility, miscarriage, abortion, pain during sex, endometriosis, PCOS, and other gynecological conditions, transitions to motherhood, family / career balance, domestic violence, emotional / mental abuse and gaslighting, history of molestation or rape, self- injurious behavior, eating disorders and sexism / oppression.

I work with a lot of women and enjoy helping them navigate women issues like peri menopause, menopause, empty nest, anxiety, depression, hormonal imbalances, self confidence issues, life purpose, relationship issues, success and finance blocks, weight management blocks, and so much more. I have a couple different methods that work really well like RTT Rapid Transformation Therapy. A lot of women note a reduction of symptom and an increased sense of wellbeing!

Jennifer Plumb Vilardaga, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
Being someone who identifies as a woman is not easy. Societal pressures, cultural, family, and personal expectations can feel crushing, and it can feel like we are never enough. I also work with those struggling with life decisions, parenting and fertility issues, life transitions, women's health issues and other stressors (such as carrying emotional labor for home and/or the workplace) that seem to predominately affect women. Therapy can be a powerful place to focus on what you need and learn to orient to what is most important to you - such as peace, fulfillment, improving health, or choosing a path of freedom rather than managing everything all the time.
11 Years Experience
New Leaf Counseling and Wellness
Psychologist
Working to address women's issues in therapy involves a nuanced understanding of the unique challenges and experiences faced by women across various stages of life. With a compassionate and culturally sensitive approach, I address a range of topics including gender roles, body image, reproductive health, relationships, and career aspirations. Utilizing feminist therapy principles and evidence-based techniques, I create a safe and supportive space for women to explore their concerns, heal from past traumas, and navigate societal pressures. By empowering women to voice their needs, assert boundaries, and cultivate self-compassion, my specialized expertise aims to facilitate personal growth, empowerment, and resilience in the face of gender-related struggles.
