Women's Issues
Valentina Verani, LMHC
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Every stage of a woman's life brings its own challenges, transitions, and opportunities for growth. As a therapist, a mother, and a woman navigating midlife myself, I understand the many roles women carry and how easy it is to lose sight of themselves while caring for everyone else. Balancing career, relationships, parenting, aging parents, changing identities, and personal aspirations can feel overwhelming.
Therapy offers a space to pause, reconnect with yourself, and rediscover your voice amidst life's demands. Together, we'll navigate the challenges unique to your journey, strengthen your confidence, and help you move through this season with greater clarity, resilience, and self-compassion. My goal is to help you honor who you've been while embracing the woman you're becoming.

Women's Issues
Dawn McCarthy
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Women today are often expected to effortlessly balance a multitude of roles, frequently leading to chronic overwhelm, perfectionism, and losing touch with their own needs. I specialize in helping women navigate the unique emotional, societal, and physiological challenges they face across the lifespan—including identity shifts, life transitions, and relational stressors. My approach blends the structured, actionable strategies of CBT and DBT to help you manage daily stress, set firm boundaries, and quiet your inner critic. Simultaneously, we use Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Narrative Therapy to unpack generational expectations and rewrite the stories that dictate your worth, while advanced brain-body therapies like EMDR and Brainspotting safely process deeper relational or childhood trauma. Together, we will work to reclaim your voice, honor your boundaries, and build a life that feels authentic and deeply fulfilling to you.

Women's Issues
The Florida Center for Healthy Sexuality
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, CST, CSAT
Women's issues can derive from unconscious thoughts, early life experiences and relational patterns that shape emotions and behaviors. By assisting clients in uncovering core beliefs around societal, familial and gendered expectations we create an environment that allows for the expression of their unique experiences. The aim is to bring conflicts to the surface to understand the roots of each individual's unique struggle and develop healthier ways of viewing themselves.

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.
