Margo Tirado MA LCPC
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LCPC
I help women break free from the beliefs and patterns that hold them back, guiding them to reclaim their power and confidence. Drawing from my best-selling book - Own Your Voice: Eight Emotional Habits That Empower Women, based on over ten years of research, I show women how to recognize what’s been keeping them small and how to cultivate habits that amplify their strength, clarity, and self-worth.
In therapy, we tackle the challenges women face—whether in relationships, careers, or personal growth—through powerful awareness and coaching strategies. My mission is to create a space where women can fully embrace their voice, honor their needs, and step into their lives with authenticity, courage, and empowerment.

New Leaf Counseling and Wellness
Psychologist
Working to address women's issues in therapy involves a nuanced understanding of the unique challenges and experiences faced by women across various stages of life. With a compassionate and culturally sensitive approach, I address a range of topics including gender roles, body image, reproductive health, relationships, and career aspirations. Utilizing feminist therapy principles and evidence-based techniques, I create a safe and supportive space for women to explore their concerns, heal from past traumas, and navigate societal pressures. By empowering women to voice their needs, assert boundaries, and cultivate self-compassion, my specialized expertise aims to facilitate personal growth, empowerment, and resilience in the face of gender-related struggles.

Mind Body Connections
Counselor/Therapist
Hormones are often misunderstood and pathologized. We know how impactful and stressful hormonal imbalances can be. We work with women to understand their bodies more deeply. We prefer to work alongside other holistic specialists in this field if we suspect a hormone imbalance may be occurring and will make the proper referral if necessary.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LSW
Women often carry unique emotional, relational, and societal pressures that can impact identity, self-worth, and overall well-being.

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.

Women's Issues
Ashley Pinto
Therapist, LCPC, CCTP
Hormonal transitions such as pregnancy, postpartum, and perimenopause/menopause can profoundly impact a woman’s nervous system, emotional wellbeing, and sense of self. Anxiety, panic, irritability, mood swings, brain fog, exhaustion, or feeling unlike yourself are common during these seasons—not because something is “wrong,” but because your body and brain are adapting to immense internal change while often carrying invisible expectations to keep functioning as usual.
Through integrative somatic therapy, I support women in understanding and working with these shifts rather than pushing through them. Our work focuses on restoring nervous system balance, developing greater flexibility, and increasing capacity for rest, regulation, and self-trust. Therapy becomes a space to reconnect with your strengths and clarify what you need in this season. It’s about meeting yourself where you are, honoring your body’s wisdom, and creating steadiness and resilience in this new chapter of life.
I no longer offer weekly insurance-based 53 minute sessions. After a decade of seeing clients under this model, I've shifted my practice to private pay customized services that better meet the needs of my niche clients. My customized Therapy Intensives are specially designed to offer you a more a more spacious, efficient, and streamlined for a deeper and more transformative experience. They are intended to be short-term and can serve as an adjunct to ongoing therapy with your already established therapist, such as in the case that you really enjoy the work you are doing with them but they do not specialize in an area that I do. I also offer monthly extended sessions (90 minutes to 2 hours) for those looking for a hybrid option, that allows for deeper work as well as ongoing support. Please visit my website for more details on how we can work together.
