Women's Issues
Deborah Ejiofor
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC
Treating women's issues in therapy involves addressing the unique challenges women face, such as balancing personal, professional, and family responsibilities, navigating societal pressures, and dealing with issues like self-esteem, body image, or gender-based discrimination. Therapy provides a safe space for women to explore these challenges, develop coping skills, and build resilience. Therapeutic approaches help individuals gain clarity, set boundaries, and prioritize self-care. The goal is to empower women to embrace their strengths, heal from past experiences, and cultivate a sense of well-being and self-worth.

Chrissie Chua- Ly van manh
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC-D, LPC
A large portion of my practice is made up of women navigating different stages of life- from young adulthood and career-building years to partnership, motherhood, and beyond. Across these stages, many women I work with are carrying what is often described as an “invisible load"- the emotional, mental, and relational labor of managing not only their own lives, but also the needs, expectations, and wellbeing of others.
Many of my clients are high-achieving and deeply responsible, yet feel the pressure of constantly having to hold everything together while also meeting often unrealistic societal expectations. This can include navigating gender-based pressures, inequality in relationships or workplaces, caregiving demands, and the ongoing tension between personal needs and external responsibilities.
In our work together, we also explore how men and women are often socialized differently, which can shape communication styles, emotional expression, conflict patterns, and expectations within relationships. When helpful, we look at how these differences may contribute to misunderstandings or tension in relationships with partners, friends, or colleagues, and we work on ways to communicate more clearly, assertively, and effectively across these dynamics.
We also examine internalized expectations, perfectionism, self-sacrifice patterns, and the impact of broader societal and cultural pressures on identity and self-worth. Over time, therapy can help create more space for self-advocacy, boundaries, rest, and authenticity.
My goal is to support women in feeling more seen, supported, and empowered in their lives- helping them reconnect with their own needs and voice while navigating the complexity of the roles they hold.

Beth Janis
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Being a woman in this day and age can bring so many different layers of challenge and difficulty. In our work together, we can walk through the different issues that you are facing while deepening insight into the strategies you've developed throughout your life to adapt to life's demands. While these strategies were often necessary in the moment, they sometimes just don't work so well for us as time goes on or as the situation changes. Our sessions focus on building insight into your patterns, the messages/beliefs you may hold about yourself and others, and strategies to help you take the steps that are meaningful to you.
