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.

Cynthia Leslie
Pastoral Counselor/Therapist, MA, CPRS
Many women struggle with trying to be all things to all people. Maintaining a career, raising children, and caring for elderly parents can often be issues that they face. Setting boundaries and self-care are some of the interventions that are explored in counseling.

Andrea Elkon
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Perhaps my most significant specialization is in working with women who present with the Female Athlete Triad--a combination of over-training plus under-nourishing can lead to repetitive injuries. What the triad does not acknowledge is the mental health component--typically the struggle with anxiety, perfectionism, control, and fear of failure. I enjoy helping women connect their thoughts and feelings, examining how they impact eating and exercise behaviors. Please feel free to reach out to me to learn more about my approach to treating women's health issues.

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.
