Women's Issues
Dr. Megan Marks
Psychologist, PhD
You’ve spent years showing up, taking care of others, and getting things done—even when it meant setting your own needs aside. But lately, something feels off. Maybe you’re feeling more irritable, foggy, anxious, or exhausted than usual. Your body and mind are shifting, and the strategies that once helped no longer seem to work. Whether you're navigating identity changes, caregiving fatigue, high-functioning burnout, or the often-disorienting symptoms of perimenopause, you deserve support that sees the full picture.
I work with women, femmes, and gender-expansive adults who are carrying a lot—from caretaking and career demands to invisible labor and internalized expectations. Many of my clients are high-achieving, thoughtful, and deeply capable—and still find themselves feeling burned out, anxious, over-functioning, and disconnected from themselves. Contact me for a free 15 minute consultation!
In therapy, we’ll explore the complex emotional landscape of midlife—where physical, emotional, and existential shifts converge. This may include hormonal changes, mood swings, grief, rage, shifting roles, and the pressure to “age gracefully” in a culture that minimizes your pain. These experiences are often compounded by neurodivergence, trauma, or societal pressures around gender, body, and productivity.
This is a space to make sense of what you’re experiencing—not as a personal failing, but as a signal that something deeper needs tending. Here, you have permission to be messy, complex, and real. Together, we’ll examine how early relational dynamics, internalized expectations, overlooked neurodivergence, and systemic messages about womanhood shape how you show up for others—and for yourself. We’ll get clear on what’s shifting, what still matters, and what needs to change so you can show up more fully for you.
With over 15 years of experience, I help clients move from self-doubt and depletion toward clarity, compassion, and a renewed sense of agency. Whether you’re unlearning old patterns, adjusting to hormonal shifts, or simply craving a space to rest and be real, I’m here. We’ll also work toward a version of self-care that isn’t performative—but deeply nourishing and sustainable.

Avery Wageman Passion Flower Therapy
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Women often navigate unique emotional, relational, and societal pressures across different stages of life. These may include challenges related to identity, self-esteem, relationships, work-life balance, caregiving responsibilities, motherhood, trauma, or navigating expectations from family, culture, and society.
Avery provides a supportive and empowering space where you can explore these experiences openly and without judgment. Together, you’ll work to strengthen self-understanding, build healthy boundaries, and develop tools to manage stress and emotional overwhelm. The focus is on helping you feel more confident, balanced, and connected to your own needs and values as you move through life.

Being a woman has never been easy.

Elizabeth Starnes
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S, ATR-BC®, REAT
Many women carry the weight of expectations around appearance, roles, relationships, and achievement, often leading to self-doubt, shame, and a sense of never feeling “enough.” These experiences are frequently shaped by past trauma, cultural messages, and relational dynamics that impact how you see yourself and move through the world. In our work together, we create space to slow down and understand these patterns with compassion. My approach integrates expressive arts therapy as a central part of the process, using modalities such as visual journaling, storytelling, movement, and other forms of creative expression to explore and process experiences that may be difficult to fully access through words alone, alongside a parts-informed perspective to understand the aspects of you shaped by survival, protection, and expectation. This work supports reconnecting with your voice, your needs, and a more grounded and authentic sense of self.

El Paso's location directly on the US-Mexico border defines its mental health landscape, with a predominantly Hispanic population spanning both sides and bilingual Spanish-English therapists at the center of the city's therapy community. Fort Bliss — one of the largest Army installations in the country — creates strong demand for therapists specializing in military trauma, PTSD, and the challenges faced by active-duty families. The 2019 mass shooting at a Walmart in El Paso had a profound impact on the city's collective mental health, and therapists specializing in community trauma and grief have played an ongoing role in recovery. Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center El Paso and University Medical Center of El Paso provide institutional mental health resources for the broader Borderland region.
