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.

Amy Karbasi
Psychologist, PsyD
I worked closely with a women's health clinic in a primary care setting for several years. As a female provider, I am intimately aware of the unique challenges faced by women. I understand that women's issues are often dismissed or downplayed in the medical setting, and how that can erode trust with providers. I provide an affirming and supportive environment for female patients in which they can feel genuinely heard and understood. Through my years of experience, I have addressed relationship and intimacy issues, parenting, familial conflict, caring for aging parents, work/life/parenting expectations and balance, body image, and trauma (medical, physical, sexual, emotional), as well as health conditions frequently experienced by women, such as pelvic and other types of chronic pain, endometriosis, infertility, migraines, sleep problems, menopause, and many others.

Kristina Peck
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Let’s be honest—being a woman means constantly evolving, often without a roadmap. From navigating fertility and reproductive challenges to the identity shifts of motherhood (or deciding not to be a mother), and from the unexpected rollercoaster of perimenopause to the emotional complexities of aging—this journey is not for the faint of heart.
You may be feeling overwhelmed, anxious, resentful, invisible, or just not like yourself. Maybe you’re grieving what your body used to do with ease. Maybe you’re wrestling with guilt, exhaustion, or the quiet pressure to hold everything together. Whatever you're carrying, I offer a supportive, judgment-free space where you can exhale, process, and feel seen.
As a licensed psychologist with nearly 20 years of experience—and a fellow human walking this path—I work with women across all life stages using mindfulness-based therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Internal Family Systems (IFS)-informed work, and compassion-focused approaches. I blend clinical expertise with a healthy dose of humor, humanity, and genuine care.
We’ll explore your story with curiosity and kindness, untangle old patterns, and reconnect you to your own wisdom. Whether you're navigating hormones, heartache, or hard decisions—I’m here to help you feel more empowered, more grounded, and more like you again.
