Mathews Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor, LMFT, LPC
There are times where women want to feel heard and that they matter. There could be specific issues you are facing and need to feel like you're not alone. Our therapists start by making sure you are heard and understood. Because we know that then you will be able to take the steps towards healing. Therapy means you do not have to walk that burdensome path alone. Instead, your therapist is there to help work through the burden you are carrying in a meaningful way. Life stressors can be difficult but therapy helps you find the freedom to safely express those thoughts, feelings, and desires and move toward a life you want.

Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
Women are often expected to carry a lot—and carry it well. To be accommodating but assertive, successful but not “too much,” nurturing but self-sufficient. These expectations don’t just exist externally—they get internalized, shaping how you see yourself, what you allow, and how much space you feel permitted to take up. Add in experiences like burnout, identity shifts, relationship dynamics, reproductive health, or navigating systems that weren’t designed with you in mind, and it can become a lot to hold without support.
At Nour Counseling, we take a deeper, more honest approach. We don’t look at your experiences in isolation—we look at how all of your identities intersect and compound your experience. The reality is, you’re not just navigating gender. You may also be navigating race, culture, religion, neurodivergence, sexuality, or other identities that shape how you’re perceived, what’s expected of you, and what you have access to. Those layers matter—and they can make life feel more complex, more pressured, and at times, more isolating.
We work with you to unpack these dynamics so you’re not carrying them as personal shortcomings. From there, we actively support you in building clarity, boundaries, and a stronger sense of self that isn’t defined by expectation. This might include navigating life transitions, relationships, career dynamics, or reconnecting with your own needs and values. We also center the question of belonging—helping you explore where you feel it, where you’ve been disconnected from it, and how to move toward spaces where you don’t have to shrink or overextend to be accepted. This is about helping you live in a way that feels more aligned, more supported, and more your own.

Dr. Anna Smith
Psychologist, PsyD, MEd, MA
Women often navigate complex layers around body image, desire, sexual shame, people-pleasing, motherhood, hormonal changes, or the pressure to “have it all together” while still longing for deeper emotional and sexual fulfillment. In individual or couples work, we explore these themes with compassion and directness, unpacking old patterns, healing relational wounds, and reconnecting with your authentic needs and pleasures. Therapy here supports you in building relationships—starting with the one with yourself—that feel nourishing, empowered, and genuinely intimate.

Dr. Lauren Chase
Counselor/Therapist, PhD, LCMHC, NCC, BC-TMH
Women often carry unique pressures related to career, family roles, relationships, and expectations. Many of the women I work with are highly capable but feel overwhelmed by the responsibility of holding everything together. Therapy provides a space to understand how past experiences and family dynamics may still be shaping your current patterns. Together, we focus on building confidence, creating healthier boundaries, and helping you feel more grounded in your own needs and goals.

Dr. Bridget Williams
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
What does it mean to be a woman? I approach therapy taking into account the unique biological, psychological, and social experiences, including depression, anxiety, trauma, hormonal transitions, caregiving stress, and discrimination that women experience. We look out your experience as a woman through the lens of the various environments you exist in and the ways we have been conditioned to think and feel about women. I am trained in many of the conditions that disproportionately affect women and use approaches designed for life‑stage changes such as pregnancy, postpartum, perimenopause, and menopause.
