Women's Issues
Kate Winderman
Psychologist, Ph.D., LP
As women, we are often invalidated or minimized by society. Whether that's your pain (physical, mental, emotional, or spiritual), your ideas, or your experiences, we are often told we don't have the right to feel what we feel, or that what we feel is not real. We often carry multiple roles in our lives, and are often asked to give (and give, and give) while also being taught not to ask for much in return. We feel unseen in our struggles, and are expected just to carry on. I specialize in creating a safe, validating space for women to process the complexity of their experiences.

Starlain Saldana
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Working with women has been a passion for me since I began my training as a psychologist! A broad theme I see in women is carrying the heavy weight of managing their lives, careers, and families (either family of creation of family of origin). Often, this results in women being over-burdened, stressed, and at times lose touch with their own needs and desires. I want to empower women to make themselves a priority and give space for their own needs and wants in life.

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.
