Women's Issues
Solid Ground Counseling & Wellness
Counselor/Therapist, LPC-S
Women are often navigating expectations about who they should be for everyone else while trying to figure out what they actually want for themselves. Therapy can be a place to explore relationships, identity, motherhood, career, perimenopause, boundaries, body image, and the many transitions that come with being a woman--without having to minimize how complicated it can all feel.

Heather Curry
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S
Pelvic pain can be physically uncomfortable and emotionally isolating. Many people have spent years seeking medical answers, managing symptoms, or adjusting daily life around pain, intimacy concerns, and unpredictability. It’s common to feel frustrated, discouraged, or disconnected from your body.
Therapy does not replace medical care and does not assume symptoms are psychological. Instead, we work with the stress and protective responses that often develop when the body has learned to anticipate pain. By addressing fear, tension patterns, and past medical or relational experiences, your nervous system can begin to feel safer. The goal is reducing the constant vigilance and self-blame that often accompany pelvic pain while supporting a steadier relationship with your body.

Norma J. Perez
Psychologist, PhD
Women struggle with so many different challenges that are not reflective of who they are but more so of the circumstances they are faced with. We also tend to judge ourselves more and are our toughest critics. I can help you find who you are today or who you want to be today. I love doing this exercise of self-discovery to help you find your own mission statement or what is in your "pot of gold" at the end our your rainbow. With this new information we can embark on a journey that helps you live life more authentically and purposefully. This is what will ultimately lead to your best life!

Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S, LMHC
Let's be real...being a woman in society has never been easy. Whether it's feeling dismissed by doctors/bosses/the govt, the pressure to be "perfect", the expectation to do it all, experiencing trauma or harassment, or more, your experience matters. Therapy can help you feel validated and supported, while addressing and healing painful moments that have affected you.

Dr. Carolina Castanos, PhD, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, PHD, LMFT
Women's issues are so varied, they have to do with all these feelings in relationships, with parents, siblings, partners, children, co-workers. Sometimes it is hard to know how we are feeling and where these overwhelming emotions are coming from.

Aubrey Richardson
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Many women are socialized to prioritize others, stay agreeable, and take on emotional responsibility in ways that are often invisible but deeply impactful. Over time, this can lead to burnout, resentment, and a loss of connection to yourself.
For many, this pattern starts early. Being praised for being helpful, selfless, or “easy” can quietly reinforce the belief that your value comes from what you give rather than who you are.
These expectations are not just personal. They are systemic. Cultural, familial, and societal messages often place women in roles where overgiving and caretaking are expected, and in many cases, rewarded.
For BIPOC and immigrant individuals, these dynamics can be even more layered. Cultural values, family roles, and systemic pressures may intensify the expectation to give, to hold things together, and to put others first, often without space to question or step outside of those roles.
Therapy is not about rejecting your values or disconnecting from your relationships. It is about understanding how these patterns developed, recognizing where they are no longer sustainable, and creating space for something more balanced and reciprocal.
Together, we focus on helping you step out of overfunctioning patterns, redefine what is actually yours to carry, and build a life and relationships that do not require you to disappear in order to maintain them.
You are allowed to exist as more than what you provide for others.
