Jennifer Plumb Vilardaga, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
Being someone who identifies as a woman is not easy. Societal pressures, cultural, family, and personal expectations can feel crushing, and it can feel like we are never enough. I also work with those struggling with life decisions, parenting and fertility issues, life transitions, women's health issues and other stressors (such as carrying emotional labor for home and/or the workplace) that seem to predominately affect women. Therapy can be a powerful place to focus on what you need and learn to orient to what is most important to you - such as peace, fulfillment, improving health, or choosing a path of freedom rather than managing everything all the time.

Hope I. Hills, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist in NC, Authorized PsyPact Practitioner in 40 states
I have had the privilege of living through many stages of development of women's issues as well as multicultural issues (I founded the first multicultural therapy program at the University of Missouri-Columbia). I love to help people, in this case women, find their own power and learn how to successfully use it. It is so exciting in our work when someone who has been mostly submissive, starts enjoying both the dominant and submissive parts of who she (or he) is.

Elizabeth Starnes
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S, ATR, REAT
I enjoy working with women and find that we struggle with many of the expectations society and social media places on us. Just to name a few: weight management, aging, beauty, career, motherhood, marriage, and many other areas. The list is long. Women have experienced trauma at higher rates than men. Research tells us that 1 in 4 women have been sexually abused. That's just based on reported cases. I work with women's issues using Expressive Arts Therapy and talk therapy. Expressive Arts will give the opportunity to express yourself without words. I have found it moves therapy to the core of the issue faster. Using expressive arts is encouraged but never forced. I work at client's comfort level.
