We’ll also talk screening for perimenopause (spoiler - there is no blood test), and how to support clients in accessing appropriate support for physical wellness and longevity.

Gen X and Elder millennial women are knee deep in midlife and realizing the struggles they’ve carried for decades may have a name: ADHD. New blog post on what it means and how we can move forward with confidence.

Why are so many women diagnosed with ADHD later in life and how can we best support ourselves? Jessika Fruchter, LMFT, explains how we got here and how we can move forward confidently with the specialized mental health care women deserve.

As if midlife weren’t vulnerable enough, the wellness industry has found new ways to prey on women’s insecurities about aging and fears about their long-term health. Everywhere you turn, someone is selling a remedy — often for a problem that may not even exist ...

I’ll be real—this cultural fixation on weight gain and body composition during perimenopause has me deeply fired up. As if this phase of life weren’t vulnerable enough, the wellness industry has outdone itself in preying on women’s insecurities about aging and fears about long-term health. S...

My Practice

Poet, Rupi Kaur writes “ What is the greatest lesson a woman should learn | that since day one she’s already had everything she needs within herself | it’s the world that convinced her she did not.

I could not agree more. And I am proud to have a psychotherapy practice dedicated to the support of self-identified women and girls, as well as their caregivers. Using “talk therapy”, expressive arts therapy and coaching, I help girls and women show up more fully in their lives, with a stronger sense of self and a clear voice in the world.
