Why Start a Mental Health Practice for Women?
There’s a reason I built a mental health practice specifically for women.
So many women walk into therapy already carrying more than they can name. Not just anxiety or burnout—but the constant pressure to be “fine,” to hold it together, to take care of everyone else, to stay agreeable, to stay small, to stay productive. Many have learned to doubt their instincts. Many have learned to call survival “strength.”
And when women do reach out for help, the support they find isn’t always made for them. It can miss the cultural context, the family dynamics, the faith questions, the relationships, the body’s stress response, and the invisible load that women carry every day. It can feel like being given advice for a life you don’t actually live.
I built this practice to be different.
This is a space where women can stop performing and start telling the truth—without judgment, without rushing, and without quick fixes. A space where we take your inner world seriously: your nervous system, your story, your relationships, your identity, your values, and the parts of you that learned to survive by overfunctioning, people-pleasing, or shutting down.
My hope is that therapy here helps you build something real: clarity, self-trust, healthier boundaries, and communication that doesn’t cost you your peace. Not by becoming someone else—but by coming back to yourself.
You’ve done enough alone. If you’re ready for support that actually fits, I’d be honored to walk with you.
With care,
Helen
