Women's Issues
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.

Susan Spicer
Psychologist, PhD
In my practice, I am deeply committed to providing compassionate and effective therapy to individuals grappling with a wide spectrum of women's issues. Drawing from years of experience and a profound understanding of the complexities surrounding these challenges, my approach is rooted in empathy, empowerment, and a focus on tailored solutions.
Recognizing that every woman's journey is unique, I prioritize creating a safe and non-judgmental space where clients can explore their concerns and experiences openly. Whether it's addressing mental health conditions like depression and anxiety, helping clients navigate the complexities of body image and self-esteem, or providing support to survivors of trauma and abuse, I approach each case with sensitivity and a client-centered focus.
In the realm of relationships, I work closely with individuals to foster healthier dynamics, improve communication, and build resilience. Women often face unique workplace stressors, and I offer strategies for managing career-related challenges, gender disparities, and the delicate balance between professional and personal life.
Reproductive health, a significant aspect of women's well-being, is another area of expertise. I provide guidance and support during transitions such as fertility concerns, pregnancy, and postpartum experiences, ensuring that clients have the resources and coping strategies they need.
I am mindful of the intersectionality of women's issues, recognizing that identity, culture, and background play pivotal roles in shaping one's experiences. My therapy approach is culturally sensitive and inclusive, taking into account the diverse backgrounds and identities of my clients.
Ultimately, my goal is to empower women to overcome the obstacles they face, fostering self-acceptance, resilience, and personal growth. Through a combination of evidence-based therapeutic techniques, mind-body work, and a strengths-based approach, I strive to help my clients live fulfilling lives and navigate the unique challenges and opportunities that come their way.
