Women's Issues
Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in women's issues, my approach to therapy is sensitive, inclusive, and empowering. I provide a safe space for women to explore and address a wide range of challenges they may face, including gender discrimination, body image concerns, reproductive health issues, and relationship dynamics. Through a combination of feminist therapy, cognitive-behavioral techniques, and trauma-informed care, I help women understand and navigate societal pressures, internalized beliefs, and interpersonal conflicts. I aim to validate women's experiences, foster self-compassion, and promote resilience in overcoming obstacles. Additionally, I advocate for women's rights and empowerment, both within and outside the therapy room, while collaborating with other professionals and community resources to address systemic issues affecting women's well-being. My goal is to support women in realizing their strengths, reclaiming their autonomy, and achieving greater fulfillment in all aspects of their lives.

Women's Issues
Melanie Carey
Counselor/Therapist, LMHCA
Women’s issues in therapy often reflect the complex intersection of identity, relationships, cultural expectations, and lived experience. This may include challenges related to self-worth, caregiving roles, reproductive health, life transitions, burnout, relationship dynamics, or the pressure to meet internal and external expectations simultaneously.
Many women come to therapy feeling overextended, emotionally responsible for others, or disconnected from their own needs and desires. There may also be experiences of grief, anger, identity confusion, or a sense of losing connection with oneself while navigating multiple roles.
From a psychodynamic and trauma-informed perspective, these patterns are understood within the context of relational history, attachment experiences, and broader social conditioning. Therapy offers a space to explore how these dynamics have shaped your sense of self and how they continue to show up in daily life.
Using Focusing-Oriented Psychotherapy, we also pay attention to the body-based experience of being a woman in the world — including emotional carrying, tension, exhaustion, and intuition. This helps create space to reconnect with internal signals that may have been overridden or dismissed over time.
This work supports a deeper return to self-trust, emotional clarity, and the ability to move through life with more alignment, choice, and internal support.

Bobby Newell
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, SEP
I specialize in supporting women who are navigating the pressure of balancing multiple roles, expectations, and responsibilities. Many women find themselves overextended—taking care of others while feeling disconnected from their own needs. Together, we focus on reducing overwhelm, strengthening boundaries, and helping you reconnect with yourself in a way that feels sustainable and aligned. My approach combines practical tools with mind-body awareness, supporting you in building confidence, managing stress, and creating a life that feels more balanced, intentional, and fulfilling.
