As women, we’re often expected to carry so much—quietly. You might feel like you’re always there for others, but struggling to show up for yourself. Whether you're navigating burnout, relationship struggles, motherhood, identity, or the pressure to be “everything,” you deserve space to breathe, be heard, and reconnect with your own needs. Therapy is that space. You don’t have to keep pushing through—I'm here to support you.

Rachel Losoff
Psychologist, PhD
I provide a supportive and empowering space for women to explore their unique challenges and experiences. My approach used evidence-based techniques, tackling topics such as gender-based discrimination, work-life balance, body image, and relationships. Through our collaborative work, women gain insights into societal pressures, develop stronger self-advocacy skills, and cultivate a more authentic sense of self, enabling them to navigate their personal and professional lives with increased confidence and empowerment.

Women's Issues
Emily Blitz
Psychologist, PsyD
Women’s experiences are often shaped by complex layers of early relationships, internalized expectations, and relational patterns that influence identity, self-worth, and connection. As a Licensed Clinical Psychologist and Perinatal Mental Health Certified (PMH-C) clinician, I have extensive experience supporting women across life stages. My work draws on private practice, a full-time clinical internship at a transitional housing program for formerly incarcerated women, and a background in women’s studies, allowing me to approach each woman’s experience with understanding, empathy, and attention to both emotional and relational well-being. In our work, we explore these dynamics in a supportive, reflective space, attending to both conscious feelings and the unconscious processes that may influence us. Approached with curiosity and respect, this work can foster deeper self-understanding, emotional integration, and a stronger sense of agency in your life.
