Therapy for women's issues

“Women’s issues” covers the unique emotional, relational, and physical challenges women often face. This can include perimenopause and menopause, midlife shifts, caregiving stress, burnout, anxiety, loss, toxic relationships, codependency, and feeling disconnected from yourself after years of prioritizing others.

Therapy for women's issues is therapy for women with a compassionate female therapist.

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, unseen, or stuck in old patterns of caretaking or perfectionism — or if you’re facing big transitions in midlife — therapy can help you feel grounded, supported, and empowered to move forward in a way that honors who you are.

Anything that matters to you. We might explore stress, anxiety, loss, identity shifts, aging, boundaries, relationships, or reconnecting with yourself. Sometimes women come to therapy with one focus and discover other areas of life that also need space and healing.

Yes. This transition can feel overwhelming physically, emotionally, and mentally. Therapy can give you tools for managing anxiety, navigating mood changes, and redefining who you are during this stage of life. It’s about learning to see this transition as a time of transformation rather than loss.

This is such a common experience. Therapy is a safe space to explore who you are outside of caregiving and expectations — and to gently build new ways of caring for yourself without guilt. Beginning therapy is a great first step in prioritizing yourself!

Every woman’s journey is different. Some clients find clarity and support in just a few months, while others choose longer-term therapy to deeply transform patterns and rebuild a relationship with themselves. We’ll move at a pace that feels right for you.

That’s okay. Many of my clients are coming to therapy for the first time. I create a relaxed, supportive environment where you can talk openly, explore, and show up exactly as you are.

While every woman’s story is unique, I specialize in working with women navigating burnout, midlife changes, perfectionism, and the emotional weight of systems that have taught them to put themselves last. My role is to listen deeply, validate your experience, and help you discover your own path to healing and empowerment.

Therapy sessions cost $195 per session and are typically 55 minutes long. The frequency depends on your needs, budget and availability in my schedule.

Acceptable forms of payment are credit card, or Health Savings Accounts (HSA).

I am licensed in California, Oregon, Washington, and Arizona and offer video therapy using a HIPPA compliant program.

The short answer is no.

I have made a conscious choice not to accept insurance in my practice. Why? Because I believe that the therapeutic relationship is sacred between you and me.

If I were to accept insurance, your insurance company may ask to see your charts, which is a breach of the privacy and safety we create when you undertake therapy. I believe strongly that you should be free to say whatever you want in therapy without fear of it becoming part of an official record.

However, I can give you a statement so that you can apply for reimbursement for out-of-network benefits if you wish to do that in your own way.

I am a licensed therapist in California, Arizona, Washington, and Oregon, which means I can work with women clients who reside in any of these four states.

If you are located near Temecula, Murrieta, or Menifee, California, we can meet in person at my office, or for walk-and-talk therapy in Menifee—a great option for women seeking a more active, supportive therapy experience.

For women located anywhere else in CA, AZ, WA, or OR, I offer telehealth therapy, also known as online therapy or virtual counseling, providing convenient and confidential support for women’s emotional and mental health needs wherever you are.
