She.

Curate your experience in the world

You may be thinking...

"I want to feel more fulfilled in my career"
"I want to feel more satisfied in my friendships"
"I want to balance taking care of myself with being a good mom"

In the Me.She.We approach, “She” focuses on how as a woman you experience the world, the work place, your friendships and motherhood. 

CAREER | IDENTITY

As women we receive mixed messages about how to define our identity and our self-worth. When we are career-focused we can be criticized for neglecting other areas, or if we focus on our families, we can be criticized for not being more career-forward. There seems to be constant dialogue between balancing femininity and success with little solution.

Therapy can be a safe space to provide clarity around how early life experiences, learned gender roles, and current social expectations get played out in the workplace.  Through this exploration, we can get ourselves on a more authentic and satisfying career track.

FRIENDSHIP

Friendships are unique from romantic or familial relationships. While friendships offer unique benefits, they also present unique challenges. Depending on our phase of life we may be looking to grow new friendships, navigate differences in life goals or practice vulnerability with current friends.  In therapy, we can learn to communicate our needs and authentic feelings within our individual friendships and friend groups to create more satisfying connections.

DATING

Dating can be a mix of excitement and confusion as we navigate new feelings and connections. The search for a partner can bring up confusion about our values, sexuality, needs and boundaries and dredge up old wounds. By gaining clarity about what’s truly important to us, and healing old patterns of relating to others, we’re better able to process emotions surrounding new people and make healthy choices.

MOTHERHOOD | FERTILITY

The journey into motherhood is both an exciting and vulnerable time.  Issues can arise at every phase beginning with fertility and continuing into pregnancy, post-partum and parenting.  It can be difficult to feel safe discussing our changing physical and emotional needs in the face of societal expectations of what we “should”think and feel as a mother. Therapy offers a non-judgemental space to explore these feelings and provide a sense of agency to define how we want to experience motherhood.

Fertility challenges can create emotional stress that can lead to changes in self-worth, anger, frustration, anxiety or depression. Often our friends or family don’t know the best way to support us during this process. Therapy can provide a crucial outlet to explore the feelings that surface during fertility and early pregnancy.
