Women's Issues
Gerry Letendre
Hypnotherapist, RPh, MBA, CHt
Women often juggle multiple roles and responsibilities while managing expectations related to work, family, relationships, and self-care. Over time, this can contribute to stress, anxiety, self-doubt, burnout, or feeling disconnected from one’s own needs. These challenges are often influenced by deeply ingrained patterns at a subconscious level.
My approach to working with women’s issues is individualized and collaborative. Hypnosis provides a supportive space to address concerns such as anxiety, stress, confidence, self-esteem, life transitions, and emotional balance. Each session is tailored to the individual’s goals, experiences, and circumstances, allowing change to occur in a way that feels respectful and empowering.
Clients often seek hypnosis during periods of transition, increased stress, or when long-standing patterns no longer serve them. Hypnosis offers a drug-free, complementary approach that helps clients remain aware and in control while developing greater calm, clarity, and confidence.
This work is not a replacement for medical or mental health care, and I do not recommend changing prescribed medications without consulting a healthcare provider. When appropriate, hypnosis can be used alongside other professional support to help women feel more grounded, resilient, and connected to themselves.

I understand the unique challenges women face throughout different stages of life, from balancing career and family to navigating personal identity and societal expectations. Whether you are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship dynamics, body image issues, health concerns, or the emotional toll of major life transitions, therapy can offer a supportive space for you to process, grow, and heal. I provide a compassionate, non-judgmental environment where you can explore your experiences, build resilience, and cultivate a sense of empowerment.

Annie Harton Kassell
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Somewhere in the roles you carry, you lost track of the woman underneath them. That is the work I love most. Not adding one more thing to your plate, but helping you remember who you are apart from what you do for everyone else. You are allowed to want yourself back.

Cynthia Leslie
Pastoral Counselor/Therapist, MA, CPRS
Many women struggle with trying to be all things to all people. Maintaining a career, raising children, and caring for elderly parents can often be issues that they face. Setting boundaries and self-care are some of the interventions that are explored in counseling.

GRIS ALVES
Counselor/Therapist, Compassionate Inquiry, Trauma Informed Mindfulness Teacher
I work with women navigating the impacts of patriarchal oppression, gendered trauma, and societal pressures that can affect self-worth, relationships, and emotional well-being. Using a trauma-informed, compassionate approach, I support clients in reclaiming their power, building healthy boundaries, and reconnecting with their inner strength, resilience, and authentic voice. Together, we explore patterns shaped by culture, history, and personal experience, creating space for empowerment, healing, and self-discovery.
