Kieri Olmstead
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Women are socialized to shrink, accommodate and perform wellness while quietly falling apart. At Simple Empathy I work with women who are done with that. Whether you're navigating identity, relationships, career, motherhood, body image, trauma or the particular exhaustion of always being the one who holds everything together — this is a space where you don't have to manage how you're received. Direct, depth-oriented therapy that takes women's inner lives as seriously as they deserve. You are allowed to take up space here.

Katie at Jade Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
How many hats are you currently wearing? Which aren't fitting quite right? It is an overwhelming thing to be a woman in todays world, and finding time and space to just allow yourself to be present and feel is a challenge. I do believe, though, that it's a challenge worth taking! You are valuable and you don't have to feel stuck or angry or sad alone.

Taylor Esworthy

Women often carry complex expectations and pressures that can impact identity, relationships, and mental health. I provide a space to explore these experiences openly while helping you reconnect with your voice, your needs, and your sense of self.

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.

Psychologist, Psy.D.
Women often carry the weight of multiple roles and expectations, which can lead to exhaustion, self-doubt, and emotional strain. Therapy offers a supportive space to explore challenges related to identity, relationships, self-care, and life transitions. Whether you’re navigating motherhood, menopause, work-life balance, or past trauma, therapy can help you reconnect with your strength, clarify your needs, and honor your authentic self.
