Women's Issues
Bergen Counseling Collective
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
The expectations are relentless. Be successful but not too ambitious. Be a good mother and a good partner and a good daughter and a good employee, and make it all look effortless. Your needs end up last, if they make the list at all. And when you struggle, you wonder what's wrong with you instead of questioning the impossible standards. We work with women navigating the particular pressures that come with being a woman in this world: identity and role transitions, relationship dynamics, body image, reproductive challenges, career and family tensions, and the simple exhaustion of doing too much for too long. Telehealth throughout Illinois. BCBS PPO and Aetna accepted.

Merrisa Dawn Santos
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC, CCTMHP, CCTP
In supporting individuals with women's issues, I provide a safe and empathetic space to address a range of concerns unique to women. 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.

Dorothy Brown
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I have been a feminist since I was born, or at least since college. I have worked with women regarding discrimination. While women are clearly the stronger sex, able to be in touch with their intuition and able to bring the magic to life, they are often undervalued. I work with women to see their strengths, their innate wisdom and regain their power.

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.
