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.

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.

Vickie Bhatia
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I work with women navigating the specific pressures of doing everything well: career, relationships, family expectations, and often the added weight of first-generation or bicultural identity. That can mean untangling internalized expectations, setting boundaries that feel unfamiliar, or grieving the gap between the life you built and the life you thought you'd have.

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.
