Nathan Duff
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.Ed., LPC (CCTP, CYMHS, C-DBT, C-PD)
I realize it might be a bit odd for a male therapist to select women's issues as a "specialty," and I did debate it for a bit. I have to say though, the bulk of my experience is with women and teen girls. Some of that has been due to some niche situations, such as my work with trauma (I'm certified in trauma - CCTP) which has brought me many female survivors, teens and adults, of female sexual predators, who seem to find my being male somewhat helpful. Also 10 years providing and supervising crisis services has had me working with everything from domestic violence to post-partum suicidality, agoraphobia, self-worth and identity issues, as well as many other things that disproportionately affect women.
I completely understand why some women may feel more comfortable with a female therapist, since I can't share their lived experiences in the same way. However, I hope my commitment to learning, and listening, has given me a deeper understanding of the emotional complexities many women face. I’ve found that working collaboratively with clients allows us to navigate sensitive issues together, making the process more about mutual understanding than assumptions based on gender.

Hannah Muetzelfeld
Psychologist, PhD
I have a strong interest in supporting women through the unique challenges they face across different stages of life. My work focuses on issues such as self-esteem, life transitions, identity, relationships, anxiety, and the impact of societal and cultural expectations. I create a supportive, empowering space where women can explore their experiences, strengthen their sense of self, and work toward meaningful change.

Gayle MacBride
Psychologist, PhD, LP
My clients have always found me to be relatable due to my transparent and approachable style. I have specialized in women's issues because I'm a passionate advocate and believer in what women can bring to the table. We have long had to fight for so much and as we reveal the layers of society, I think we learn how this has impacted us on a deep level. Even with this work we are still professionals, parents, and caregivers, sometimes all at the same time. See me to talk about these issue and to think about what might work for you to develop a healthy relationship with yourself and the world at large.
