This may include reproductive health, body image, gender identity, relationships, career challenges, or experiences of discrimination and inequality. Through therapy, education, and empowerment-focused approaches, we work together to explore these issues, develop coping strategies, and promote personal growth and well-being. My goal is to empower individuals to navigate and overcome the challenges they face, ultimately fostering a sense of empowerment and fulfillment in their lives.

Megan Noren
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Women often find themselves balancing competing demands, caring for others while trying to meet their own needs, or navigating changes in identity and relationships. You may be experiencing the mental load of family responsibilities, struggling to set boundaries, questioning expectations you've internalized, or adjusting to changes associated with pregnancy, postpartum, or motherhood. I offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental space to explore these experiences, better understand your emotions and needs, and reconnect with yourself. Together, we can work toward greater self-compassion, healthier boundaries, and a stronger sense of identity so you can build a life that feels more balanced and aligned with your values.

Stephanie Larsen @ Healthy Minds Psychology Group
Psychologist, PsyD
Hi! Congratulations on taking the first step in your journey of caring more deeply for yourself! I specialize in working with adolescents and young adults working to overcome their significant anxiety and depression. I also have a passion working with high achieving females and young women learning to navigate all life demands. It's not easy to juggle all the things that you have going on and sometimes a cheerleader on your side or someone to help navigate the journey can make all the difference. Ultimately, I strongly believe in building a close therapeutic relationship where you can feel safe to explore and move past your anxious thought patterns, learn to support yourself, become more confident in your identity and purpose, and my goal is to help you achieve the goals you've set out to meet! Feel free to reach out and see if we can be a good fit to help move you closer to your goals and relief!
