Therapy for Women

Maybe you’re keeping up with work, taking care of your family, and doing what needs to get done, but you’re tired. You’re more irritable than you want to be, you don’t feel like yourself, or you keep wondering why everything feels so hard.

Or maybe you’re dealing with health concerns that have changed your day-to-day life. You want someone to understand how much it takes to get through a day when you don’t feel well.

You don’t need to have a clear explanation for what’s wrong. We can start with what life has been like lately.

When Your Health Affects Your Everyday Life

Living with endometriosis, chronic pain, or an ongoing health condition can take up more of your life than other people realize. There may be appointments to keep up with, plans you’ve had to cancel, or days when you’re trying to do everything you normally do while hurting or feeling exhausted.

You may be frustrated with your body, tired of explaining yourself, or worried about how your health is affecting your relationships. Maybe you’ve felt dismissed when asking for help.

Therapy gives you a place to talk honestly about all of that. Our work can support you emotionally alongside the medical care you receive.

Changes You May Not Feel Prepared For

Changes in your health or body can bring up questions about how you see yourself, what you need, and what you want going forward. This might include adjusting after a hysterectomy, going through perimenopause or menopause, or dealing with changes in intimacy.

Sometimes you’re still making sense of your own feelings while trying to explain them to someone you love. We can talk through those conversations, what feels different, and the support you wish you had.

Other Things We Can Talk About

  • Anxiety, overthinking, and feeling like you’re never doing enough

  • Feeling responsible for everyone else’s needs

  • Saying yes when you want to say no

  • Relationship concerns or feeling disconnected from your partner

  • Parenting and the changes that come as your kids grow up

  • Grief, loss, and things that haven’t gone the way you hoped

  • Feeling unhappy with your body or unsure of yourself

  • Wanting something to change but not knowing where to start

How I Can Help

I want to hear how you’re actually doing, including the things you might leave out when someone asks.

We can talk through what’s been hard, look at expectations you’re putting on yourself, and figure out where you need more support. Sometimes that means working on how to ask for what you need. Other times, it means having somewhere to say you’re angry, disappointed, or tired without immediately having to make it better for everyone else.

My approach is conversational and practical. I’ll listen, offer another perspective, and help you think through changes that make sense for your life and the energy you have.

You deserve time to pay attention to what you need, too.
