Women's Issues

Therapy tailored to common concerns among women; providing a safe and understanding space to address life challenges, stressors, and questions around identity as a woman

To me, "Women's Issues" can range from identifying as a woman, to navigating the workplace as a woman, to dating, to friendships. I am here to support you in identifying and challenged limiting beliefs, as well as identifying and building strengths. I am passionate about supporting women build confidence to live authentically.

Our staff has extensive experience supporting women with transition. This includes but is not limited to pre-marital counseling, pregnancy support, miscarriage and child loss grief, infertility, menopause, divorce support, and college transition support.

I provide an unconditionally supportive space for people to process all their reproductive choices, as well as feelings about the loss of body autonomy after recent court decisions. My commitment to intersectional feminism guides all my work with patients. Reproductive justice, body autonomy, and decolonization of psychotherapy demand focused and intentional effort. I pursue ongoing experiences and continuing education to support my growth in this area.

As a Feminist-Holistic counselor, I am uniquely qualified to help you understand your struggles as a woman within our current patriarchal society. I help ensure you find and use your voice. I can help you navigate life transitions unique to being a woman. I can help you leave behind the guilt, shame and co-dependent behaviors that society too often burdens women with. I can help you understand yourself, your life and your relationships as a woman. I will help ensure you grow and thrive!

I have experience co-facilitating a women’s trauma group in which I worked with clients from all walks of life who had experienced a variety of traumas both. I also strive to stay up to date with issues that women are facing in today’s society through taking courses and CEUs.

If you are constantly criticizing yourself, assuming what others think of you, and engaging in people-pleasing behaviors, it may be time to tell those voices to .... you know. They don't deserve to occupy the majority of your day. Instead, in our work together, let's focus on ways to improve self-esteem, address negative self-beliefs, prevent painful sex, and ultimately empower ourselves to walk with confidence.

Many women face specific challenges related to child-bearing. Perinatal issues can really impact a woman's life, and can impact hormones, mood, and overall life outlook. I work with women who are going through various struggles, such as: infertility, miscarriages/stillborn deaths, loss of a child, health issues associated with pre-pregnancy/pregnancy/post-pregnancy, and postpartum anxiety and depression.

The focus of my work is on women in their 40, 50's and 60's. My expertise comes from being 62 myself, from having done the work myself and from my training in somatic practices, workshops on aging, EMDR training to work with trauma and my mindfulness practice. I created a support and therapy group for women called Women Talking and have an instagram that is concerned with age advocacy. @tracysondern_therapy
