Women's Issues
Jess Williams
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSS, LCSW
The world has a lot of "rules" for women - how we should act, speak, dress, work, love, and show up in everyday life. And sometimes, we're so steeped in these messages that it becomes hard to even know what we believe anymore. Whether you're feeling unsure about what you're looking for in a relationship, having trouble asserting yourself at work, experiencing challenges related to physical stressors, or dealing with other people in your life who think you 'should' be doing something differently - I can help.
Starting therapy can be anxiety-provoking at times, which is why I offer free consultations to all prospective clients. You can book a free 20 minute phone call directly on my website, and I'll reach out to you right away to confirm. We can chat about what you're looking for support with AND make sure everything feels like a good fit before scheduling an intake. I can't wait to connect with you!

Elisha S Lee
Counselor/Therapist, NCCA CTCC CPC
Our Women's Issues counseling services cater specifically to the unique psychological, emotional, and life challenges faced by women across all stages of life. Understanding the complex interplay of personal, social, and cultural influences on women’s mental health, we provide a compassionate and empowering therapeutic environment. Our goal is to support women in navigating life transitions, relationship dynamics, work-life balance, body image concerns, and specific mental health conditions with strength and resilience.
Techniques and Supports for Addressing Women's Issues
* Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for addressing specific concerns such as anxiety, depression, and stress, tailoring interventions to meet the unique needs of women.
* Mindfulness and Self-Compassion Training to foster a positive and nurturing relationship with oneself.
* Life Transition Support focusing on major events such as pregnancy, motherhood, menopause, or career changes, offering strategies for adjustment and coping.
* Trauma-Informed Care to sensitively address and heal from experiences of trauma, including sexual abuse, domestic violence, and other forms of trauma disproportionately affecting women.
Goals of Counseling for Women's Issues
Our counseling or Women's Issues aims to:
* Empower and Validate by affirming women's experiences and strengths, fostering a sense of empowerment and self-worth.
* Enhance Coping Mechanisms with the development of adaptive skills and strategies for navigating life’s challenges.
* Promote Healing and Recovery from past traumas through compassionate and effective therapeutic practices.
* Support Life Transitions by providing guidance and coping strategies for the unique challenges associated with different life stages and events.
* Cultivate Healthy Relationships by exploring patterns, setting boundaries, and enhancing communication skills.
Our approach recognizes the diverse and dynamic roles women play in society and the unique challenges they face. By providing a supportive and understanding space, we aim to help women develop greater self-awareness, resilience, and a sense of fulfillment. Our counseling services are grounded in the belief that by addressing mental health and well-being holistically, women can achieve lasting personal growth and empowerment.

Christine Highfill
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC-S
Women often face unique challenges across different stages of life—from navigating relationships, career pressures, and motherhood, to managing transitions, identity shifts, or hormonal changes. These experiences can bring feelings of stress, self-doubt, or imbalance that are difficult to carry alone. In therapy, I provide a supportive, empowering space to process these challenges, strengthen coping strategies, and reconnect with your sense of self. Together, we’ll focus on building resilience, confidence, and balance so you can move forward feeling more grounded, fulfilled, and authentically yourself.

Aysha Wells
Counselor/Therapist, LGPC
Women often carry the weight of many roles, expectations, and responsibilities while trying to make space for their own needs. I provide a compassionate space to explore the unique challenges women may experience around identity, relationships, motherhood, career, self-worth, boundaries, life transitions, and the pressure to “do it all.” Together, we can unpack expectations, strengthen your voice, practice self-compassion, and reconnect with what matters most to you. My goal is to help you feel empowered to honor your needs, trust yourself, and create a life that feels authentic and fulfilling.

Ann Aspnes
Psychologist, PhD, ABPP
In my work with women, I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to provide an empowering, evidence-based space tailored to your unique experiences. My approach combines these structured modalities with a deep understanding of feminist perspectives on the societal stressors, expectations, and evolving social roles women navigate today. Together, we address how cultural pressures, caregiving burdens, and workplace dynamics impact emotional health, while also attending to the profound influence of biological transitions across the lifespan—including PMDD, pregnancy, postpartum, perimenopause, and menopause. Using CBT and ACT, we work to reframe unhelpful thought patterns, navigate hormonal shifts, align with your core values, and set healthy boundaries so you can restore balance and autonomy in your life.

Dr. Bridget Williams
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
What does it mean to be a woman? I approach therapy taking into account the unique biological, psychological, and social experiences, including depression, anxiety, trauma, hormonal transitions, caregiving stress, and discrimination that women experience. We look out your experience as a woman through the lens of the various environments you exist in and the ways we have been conditioned to think and feel about women. I am trained in many of the conditions that disproportionately affect women and use approaches designed for life‑stage changes such as pregnancy, postpartum, perimenopause, and menopause.
