Sound Mind Sound Body LLC
Psychologist, MPsy, PsyD
Women's issues are ones that are not specific to women, but can be-such as the reality of living in a patriarchy and how that affects well-being. Additionally, as someone who specializes in chronic health issues, women's health is another factor that suffers under a system that typically tends to downplay or dismiss experiences that are valid. Whether there are reproductive health concerns, challenges to identity, or stressors related to systems, I wish to support and improve well-being.

Dr. Desiree S. Howell
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Empowering women, especially highly-sensitive and late-diagnosed neurodivergent women, is my greatest passion. People-pleasing, perfectionism, martyrdom, abuse, neglect, self-doubt, sexual oppression, and discrimination are all too common for most women in our society. It's my honor to help you remember your worth, shed the unhelpful messages/demands from society, and listen to your inner wisdom with trust, confidence, and self-compassion.

Allison Freeman
Counselor/Therapist, LCMHCA
My practice is dedicated to creating a safe and affirming space where women can explore and address the unique challenges and experiences that arise throughout their lived experiences. In our sessions, I prioritize understanding the diverse aspects of womanhood, acknowledging the impact of societal expectations, gender roles, and personal histories.
Together, we navigate a range of topics, including relationships, identity, work-life balance, and reproductive health, tailoring our discussions to meet the specific needs and concerns of each individual. I aim to empower women to embrace their strengths, cultivate self-compassion, and navigate life's complexities with resilience.
My approach involves exploring issues such as body image, self-esteem, and societal pressures, with the goal of promoting a positive and authentic sense of self. Whether addressing challenges unique to women or working through broader life issues, I strive to foster an environment that encourages self-reflection, personal growth, and the development of effective coping strategies.
Through our therapeutic journey, the aim is to empower women to navigate their lives with a strong sense of agency, supporting them in achieving their goals, fostering meaningful connections, and cultivating a sense of well-being in all aspects of their lives.
