Women's Issues

I have worked with women in my private practice for ten years. I chose for my practice to be female only, because I felt that women have unique issues related to reproduction and food that were not being addressed in my community. Prior to private practice, I worked with the Boston Area Rape Crisis Center, as well as Planned Parenthood League of MA.

I support clients in exploring the ways societal and cultural norms and expectations for women impact their mental and physical health and provide practical tools for increasing self-compassion, healthy boundary-setting, self-care, and self-acceptance.

Being a professional woman and balancing work, family, responsibilities, hobbies (wait, who has time for hobbies, you ask), may feel like you're constantly on the go. It's common for busy women to experience feelings of anxiety and depression, and lowered self-esteem. Therapy is a great place to process life and relationships. Are you ready to ground yourself and feel more connected? Contact me for a 15-minute phone consultation.

It is my life's mission to help women recover from the depression and anxiety caused by striving for perfectionism.

I specialize in women's issues because women are the backbone of any society. I see all persons who can benefit from my services, however, they must know I utilize a BIPOC feminist lens (I am white) as the center of my practice and methods.

Courtney is pro-women and a strong-willed feminist. Women experience this world in unique ways and honoring those experiences as not only authentic but truly valid, is vital to our success. Cultural oppression may have painted women as weak but this message is fueled by the fear of women's true power. Self-realization and self-love are the tools women need to escape the confinement of projected ideals of women.

You feel like you have to wear so many hats that it's hard to juggle it all. I specialize in working with women who are feeling anxious, overwhelmed, and burnt out. I help women reconnect to themselves and clarify what's most important to them. Together we'll hone in on what you really want so you can align your actions with your values.

I love to help women to see themselves clearly. With all of the struggles that life can bring. It is important to feel grounded within yourself as you approach the emotions, struggles, traumas, griefs, and joys.

All my training and reading has stressed issues of self-esteem, lack of assertiveness, and the cost of a patriarchal society on girls and women. Have helped many women change their self-image and body-image along with that.

Women are effected in a unique way by social stressors and work/family life. Since the pandemic, the pressure on women in both career and home have accelerated. For some women, this has meant leaving work to be home, creating anxiety about finances and feeling unfulfilled. For others, it has meant a shift in career and needing to take on more responsibility while feeling depressed and isolated. I assist women in finding their voice and working on their goals, while helping find balance.

Women experience a variety of individual stressors in life. I work with these issues and specifically address the impact they have on decisions and relationships.

In my training and research, I focused on the experiences of women, specifically Latina/x women.

Empowering women through EMDR Therapy & Brainspotting, I specialize in navigating the unique challenges women face. In collaboration with you, I offer a therapeutic journey that goes beyond healing your gender-specific trauma to fostering resilience and personal growth. Your well-being is my priority.

I am passionate about women's health and the many gaps in our medical system that often leave women feeling alone, confused, and unsure of what decisions to make. I'm committed to continued learning about all aspects of women's health to provide support to women of all ages that are navigating unique issues as it relates to their well being. Hormonal issues, birth control challenges, fertility and TTC, pregnancy, postpartum, and menopause all bring unique challenges and I am here to support you.

As a feminist, I believe in equal rights for all regardless of gender or identity. I specialize in sexual assault, abortion support, role in relationships, and exploring identity.
