Therapy for Women

Reclaiming Your True Essence

Many women spend their lives caring for others, meeting expectations, and striving to do and be “enough.” Over time, it’s easy to lose touch with who you are beneath the roles, responsibilities, and pressures of everyday life. You might find yourself wondering:

  • When did I stop listening to myself?

  • What do I really want?

  • Where did my spark go?

If you’ve been moving through life on autopilot—pushing yourself to keep it all together, saying yes when you mean no, or feeling disconnected from your inner voice—therapy can help you come back home to yourself.

Signs You Might Benefit from Therapy

Many of the women I work with are healers, helpers, and creatives—women who care deeply, feel deeply, and give deeply. Despite their strengths, they often struggle with:

  • Losing themselves in relationships or caretaking roles

  • Feeling burnt out, anxious, or stretched too thin

  • Putting others needs ahead of their own

  • Having trouble identifying what they truly want or need

  • Feeling disconnected from their bodies, intuition, or emotions

  • Longing for more meaning, creativity, or authenticity in life

You may have learned that being loved means being agreeable, capable, or selfless. But when you continually override your own truth for connection or approval, it creates a painful disconnection inside.

How Therapy Can Help You Reclaim Your Voice and Power

Gabor Maté teaches that from birth, humans must navigate two essential needs: authenticity and attachment. As children, when our authenticity threatens our attachment, we often sacrifice the truth of who we are to maintain relationships. Over time, we may lose access to our inner compass—our natural sense of “this is right for me.”

Therapy provides a space to begin reclaiming that inner compass. Through guided exploration, you’ll begin to notice where you’ve adapted or hidden parts of yourself for safety and belonging—and start to reconnect with your original vitality, intuition, and power.

The goal isn’t to become someone new. It’s to remember who you already are beneath the conditioning, expectations, and self-doubt.

My Approach

My work with women is grounded in Duey Freeman’s Attachment and Development Model, Gestalt Therapy, EMDR Therapy, and Depth Psychology. These approaches honor both the relational and the soul-level dimensions of healing.

  • Attachment and Development Work helps us understand how early patterns shape the ways we relate to ourselves and others. By bringing awareness and compassion to these patterns, you can begin to create new, more secure ways of being in relationship.

  • Gestalt Therapy invites you into present-moment awareness—connecting to what’s happening in your body, emotions, and environment right now. This awareness becomes a bridge to integration and wholeness.

  • Depth Psychology and Jungian Work explore meaning, symbols, dreams, and archetypal patterns that reveal deeper truths about the psyche. Drawing inspiration from writers like Clarissa Pinkola Estés, this work honors the wild feminine—the instinctive, creative, and wise nature that lives in every woman.

In addition to talk therapy, I often weave in somatic and mindfulness-based practices, nature connection, and creative or experiential processes to help you reconnect with your body, intuition, and the natural rhythms of life.

Therapy for Women in Relationship with Nature and Community

Healing doesn’t happen in isolation—it happens in relationship. Many women find deep nourishment through reconnecting with nature’s cycles, seasons, and elements.

Depending on your needs and comfort, our work together might take place:

  • In the office, for deeper reflection and relational process work

  • Outdoors, through ecotherapy sessions that engage the wisdom of the natural world

  • With horses, in equine-assisted therapy that offers powerful mirrors for self-awareness and authenticity

  • In groups, women’s circles, or workshops, where connection and shared story become part of the healing process

Each of these settings supports a return to your natural way of being—one that is grounded, embodied, and alive.

What to Expect in Our Work Together

Our sessions are collaborative, relational, and experiential. You’ll learn to recognize your body’s signals, regulate your nervous system, and make choices that align with your truth.

Over time, you may find yourself:

  • Setting clearer boundaries and honoring your needs

  • Speaking with greater confidence and authenticity

  • Feeling more at ease in your body

  • Accessing creativity, joy, and purpose

  • Living from a deeper sense of connection—with yourself, your relationships, and the world around you

This work is both practical and soulful. It’s about becoming more of who you already are.

It is worse to stay where one does not belong at all than to wander about lost for a while and looking for the psychic and soulful kinship one requires
