Tracy Sachs
Therapist, MA, AMFT
In our current patriarchal society, there are very few models for how to be a strong, feminine woman. With a lack of obvious models and archetypes to draw from, women often either take on the masculine hero's journey as their own or feel disempowered and weak. By drawing upon myths and archetypes, we can explore the heroine's journey of feminine power and apply it to the lived realities of life in areas such as motherhood, career, relationships, marriage, boundaries, and purpose.

I provide therapy for women who face various challenges and difficulties in their lives, such as sexism, discrimination, harassment, violence, abuse, trauma, and aging.

Melissa Klass M.A., LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT #119163
Being a woman in America in 2024 is not easy. A mentor of mine once said that she did not envy my experience as a woman today. She grew up in a different time, a time when she was expected to be a good mother for her children and a responsible homemaker for her husband. Today, beyond these roles, there is a subtle, quiet undercurrent of expectations including, but by no means limited to, being a “good” wife, sister, friend, and neighbor (what does “good” mean anyway?), a career woman, an impromptu party host with a meticulous home (cook, housekeeper, etc.), and a selfless volunteer in the community, all while maintaining a size 2 figure. How can we possibly manage all this and more? Together we can explore the expectations you have of yourself as well as your place in today's world.

Marianne Albina
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT # 139542
I provide a safe and inclusive space for women to explore the stories they tell themselves about their identities, relationships, and societal roles, uncovering the voices behind those narratives. We delve into the impact of patriarchy in their lives and the power of various characters in their history, and we call out the weight of societal norms and expectations. Through therapy, clients co-author new narratives that emphasize their values, strength, resilience, and self-compassion, empowering them to navigate life's challenges with greater confidence and deeper connections with others.

Dr. Lynn E. O'Connor
Therapist, PhD
There is no way to ignore and live untouched by the system of male supremacy, despite the progress we've made over the past decades. I help women begin to understand how the many problems and challenges they've faced, believing them to be personal and psychological, have been fundamentally political ramifications of the male supremacist system we all endure. As a feminist prosocial psychologist, I support women raise their consciousness of the effects of the broader system and help them develop the strength and confidence they need to pursue the life they've wanted.

Corrie Blissit
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT#150479
Being a millennial woman comes with unique struggles. While it is a valuable time of self discovery, it is also a time of uncertainty, doubts, and increased responsibility. Discovering who you are in a world that constantly projects it's own limitations and expectations onto you isn't easy! Under the weight of societal pressures we start to question, is this as good as it gets? Are my wants, needs, and desires reasonable? Am I the woman I want to be? Sifting through these questions can feel overwhelming and you don't have to do it alone. Therapy is a place you can come, unscripted and raw. It's an intimate space and relationship that helps foster self awareness, which, in turn, inspires confidence and clarity in our values, desires, and boundaries. Call or email me today to schedule a free 20-minute consultation.
