Women's Issues
Annette Popernik
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
As a woman and a woman of color, our identity is central to our lived experience. We experience things a worldview that has often been imparted to us but is also affected by gender violence, sexism, and stereotypes. I am not here to assume what your experience has been. Even the term "women's issues" is simply a tip of an iceberg. Let's talk about it.

Women's Issues
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.

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.

Women's Issues
Dr. Megan Marks
Psychologist, PhD
You’ve spent years showing up, taking care of others, and getting things done—even when it meant setting your own needs aside. But lately, something feels off. Maybe you’re feeling more irritable, foggy, anxious, or exhausted than usual. Your body and mind are shifting, and the strategies that once helped no longer seem to work. Whether you're navigating identity changes, caregiving fatigue, high-functioning burnout, or the often-disorienting symptoms of perimenopause, you deserve support that sees the full picture.
I work with women, femmes, and gender-expansive adults who are carrying a lot—from caretaking and career demands to invisible labor and internalized expectations. Many of my clients are high-achieving, thoughtful, and deeply capable—and still find themselves feeling burned out, anxious, over-functioning, and disconnected from themselves. Contact me for a free 15 minute consultation!
In therapy, we’ll explore the complex emotional landscape of midlife—where physical, emotional, and existential shifts converge. This may include hormonal changes, mood swings, grief, rage, shifting roles, and the pressure to “age gracefully” in a culture that minimizes your pain. These experiences are often compounded by neurodivergence, trauma, or societal pressures around gender, body, and productivity.
This is a space to make sense of what you’re experiencing—not as a personal failing, but as a signal that something deeper needs tending. Here, you have permission to be messy, complex, and real. Together, we’ll examine how early relational dynamics, internalized expectations, overlooked neurodivergence, and systemic messages about womanhood shape how you show up for others—and for yourself. We’ll get clear on what’s shifting, what still matters, and what needs to change so you can show up more fully for you.
With over 15 years of experience, I help clients move from self-doubt and depletion toward clarity, compassion, and a renewed sense of agency. Whether you’re unlearning old patterns, adjusting to hormonal shifts, or simply craving a space to rest and be real, I’m here. We’ll also work toward a version of self-care that isn’t performative—but deeply nourishing and sustainable.
