Working to address women's issues in therapy involves a nuanced understanding of the unique challenges and experiences faced by women across various stages of life.

Utilizing feminist therapy principles and evidence-based techniques, I create a safe and supportive space for women to explore their concerns, heal from past traumas, and navigate societal pressures.

Women's Issues
Tara Thompson
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Women's issues are problems or challenges that specifically affect women. These can include things like unfair treatment because of gender, health concerns like pregnancy, or pressure from society to act a certain way because of gender. For example, a woman who struggles with addiction might face judgment or find it hard to get help because people see addiction differently for men and women. In relationships, women might deal with issues like power struggles or even abuse. And these issues can make women feel really sad or anxious, especially if they feel like they don't have control over their lives because of how society sees them.
To help someone with women's issues, I'd give them a safe place to talk about what's going on. Encouraging them to stand up for themselves, connecting them with support groups or counseling, and helping them deal with tough situations can all make a big difference. Also, we will address the things that might be causing their problems, like past traumas or low self-esteem, can help them feel better and more in control.
