North Star Therapy-- Cleo Haber
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
Being a woman-identified person can bring with it many joys and challenges. In therapy we can help you navigate the socio-cultural expectations for women-identifying people in our patriarchal society, which can be exhausting. In therapy we may address issues about femininity, sexuality, gender roles, gender identity, changing bodies through life cycles, sexual maturity and activity, fertility treatments, pregnancy, motherhood, childlessness and menopause.

Tina Presta
Counsellor/Therapist, CPCA MPCC- Provisional, CCPCPR.Cand
Women are often conditioned to carry the weight of the world—balancing career demands, caregiving responsibilities, and systemic patriarchal pressures—while being expected to do it flawlessly and without complaint. This societal expectation to over-function and put everyone else first leaves you feeling deeply exhausted, unseen, and trapped in high-achievement burnout. When you layer these heavy cultural pressures with complex biological shifts—such as Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD), perimenopause, or menopause—it can trigger profound anxiety, low mood, loss of direction, and an overwhelming sense of loneliness.I provide a dedicated, affirming space specializing in women’s issues, helping you safely unpack both the internal and external expectations keeping you stuck. We utilize Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to explore how your thoughts and behaviors interact, untangle old perfectionist or people-pleasing patterns, and build practical everyday emotional regulation strategies that honor your life stage.Because systemic stress, caregiving exhaustion, and hormonal disruptions live deeply in the physical body, we go beyond traditional talk therapy. We integrate tailored breathing techniques, somatic tools, and visual exercises alongside neuro-experiential tools like Brainspotting. Looking beneath the surface allows us to safely target, process, and release the hidden physical weight of stored anger, grief, and survival patterns right where they are held in your nervous system. Whether you are navigating a major life or career transition, relationship strain, or biological changes, my goal is to help you slow down. Together, we will build a self-compassionate, resilient, and intentional path forward where you can finally reclaim your boundaries and step into an aligned way of living.
