Lincoln Park Psychology, Inc
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologists, LCPC, LPC, LCSW, LSW, CADC, AMFT
Women face unique challenges and pressures in navigating careers, relationships, family expectations, body image, and societal standards that often feel impossible to meet. At Lincoln Park Psychology, our therapy services for women provide a safe, supportive space to address issues including work-life balance, perfectionism, people-pleasing, reproductive health concerns, motherhood challenges, identity transitions, gender-based discrimination, and the mental load of managing everyone else's needs while neglecting your own. We understand the particular stressors women experience and help you build confidence, establish boundaries, challenge limiting beliefs, and prioritize your own wellbeing without guilt. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or simply feeling lost in the roles you play, therapy offers a place to reconnect with yourself, honor your needs, and create a life that feels authentic and fulfilling.

Anne Zakaras
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC, ATR-BC, PMH-C
Anne provides a warm, deeply validating, and collaborative space dedicated to the unique emotional, physical, and psychological landscapes of women's mental health. As a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, she partners with women across the lifespan to dismantle the "invisible load," heal from self-doubt, and find a authentic voice in their relationships, careers, and personal lives.
Anne’s integrative approach is specifically attuned to how stress, trauma, and identity shifts uniquely manifest in women. By combining evidence-based psychotherapy with Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) and creative art therapy, she offers alternative somatic tools to quiet a hyper-vigilant inner critic and process complex emotions. Whether you are navigating the profound identity shifts of the perinatal and motherhood journey (PMH-C), weathering professional burnout in a demanding field, coping with a chronic medical illness, or processing complex grief, Anne is dedicated to empowering you with practical coping strategies to reclaim your personal agency and well-being.

Mary Mesiha
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
Women move through many seasons of life—college, career, marriage, motherhood, menopause, and beyond—and each stage brings its own joys and challenges. You may find yourself redefining your identity, balancing competing roles, or adjusting to unexpected changes. In therapy, you’ll have a supportive space to process these transitions, reconnect with yourself, and find clarity and strength for what’s next. Together, we’ll focus on helping you feel grounded, empowered, and at peace with the person you’re becoming.

Aaliyah Gilbert
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LSW
Women often carry unique emotional, relational, and societal pressures that can impact identity, self-worth, and overall well-being. I support clients in exploring challenges related to gender expectations, boundaries, caregiving roles, life transitions, and self-advocacy. In our work together, we create space to process these experiences, strengthen self-understanding, and challenge patterns that may feel limiting or overwhelming. My goal is to help you feel more empowered, grounded, and connected to your own needs and voice, while navigating life in a way that feels more aligned and authentic to who you are.
