Women's Issues
Robin Okun
Therapist, LICSW
Addressing the unique pressures women face today—whether you are navigating the transitions of early adulthood, the complexities of mid-life, or the shifting landscape of your senior years—can often leave you feeling depleted. I provide a secure, remote clinical space where the specific challenges of your life stage are witnessed and understood.
Together, we will untangle the internal and external expectations that weigh you down, equipping you with practical tools and strategies to rebuild your self-esteem and reclaim your narrative. My goal is to empower you to move beyond simply "managing it all" toward a life of genuine purpose, joy, and ease.

Vida Mendez
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LICSW, EMDR II
You've had your first baby and realize how completely your needs disappeared in the process. Maybe you find yourself having to constantly justify your decision not to have children at all. Maybe you’re navigating the emotional exhaustion of online dating, or noticing how often you make yourself smaller in male-dominated spaces and you don't know why.
Our experiences as women shape how you see yourself, what you tolerate, and how much space you allow yourself to take up. My work focuses on helping you understand how these patterns formed and decide, consciously, what you want to carry forward and what you don’t. From a feminist-informed perspective, we make sense of both your internal experience and the realities you’ve had to navigate so you can move through your life with more clarity, confidence, and ownership of yourself.

Whether you’re navigating a major transition or simply tired of holding everything together, we offer compassionate, direct, and empowering support designed to help you rise into a stronger, more aligned version of yourself.
