In terms of psychological distress both men and women suffer many problems in common. However, each gender role has its own challenges. For every problem there is a solution. This is an area in which I am very happy to assist.
I am passionate about supporting women in developing their inner guidance system, rather than relying on our patriarchal culture to define who we are and what we should do. I understand how much our cultural programming has created psychological and practical problems for us, and it is essential to find ways to reject what is hurting us. This goes beyond misogyny to include other social constructs, such as race. Our social structures impact us in many practical ways and influence what we perceive as possible for ourselves.
In my experience, freeing ourselves from internalized misogyny is crucial. Can we own our 'no,' our needs, and our desires with clarity? Can we proudly embody being female and live it from a place of strength and freedom, rather than trying to fulfill societal standards?
I have experience supporting individuals who are either childless or have experienced various fertility issues, miscarriage, or secondary infertility. I've also been trained in using DBT to manage the symptoms of menopause.
