Women's Mental Health

"Are shifts in your body and hormones during pregnancy, postpartum, or menopause leaving you feeling overwhelmed, unbalanced, or unlike yourself?"

Women carry so much, often invisibly. Between life transitions, hormonal fluctuations, caregiving roles, and societal pressures, it’s no wonder so many feel depleted or disconnected.

 

At MF Therapy, PLLC, I provide a supportive, person-centered space where women can pause, reflect, and reconnect with their true selves without needing to explain or justify how heavy it’s become.

 

You might be navigating:

  • Stress from caregiving, work, or family roles

  • Anxiety, depression, or emotional burnout

  • Fertility struggles, pregnancy loss, or postpartum transitions

  • Identity shifts during motherhood, perimenopause, or menopause

  • Complex trauma, boundary violations, or people-pleasing patterns

  • Feeling unseen, unworthy, or unsure of who you are now

 

Women’s mental health is deeply tied to our bodies, relationships, and social context. Whatever your story, you deserve care that honors all of you not just the roles you play.

How Does Women’s Mental Health Therapy Work?

Women’s therapy offers a place to explore your internal world, process emotional pain, and reconnect with agency and voice. My approach is:

  • Empowering – You are not broken. Together, we support your inner wisdom and resilience

  • Relational – Healing happens in connection. Our sessions are grounded in trust and collaboration

  • Trauma-Informed – We hold space for past wounds with care, without forcing or retraumatizing

  • Culturally Sensitive – We honor the intersections of identity, race, neurodivergence, class, gender, and more
