Therapy for Women's Issues
Women’s health is regarded as the holistic being and experience of being female. This extends beyond consideration for illness and other complex conditions but to general considerations of physical, cognitive, social, emotional, and spiritual well-being. Issues may include female oppression, socialized gender role, female reproductive issues, motherhood, body image, divorce, and substance use. Working with a therapist who specializes in women's issues may reduce symptom frequency and severity and lead to a better quality of life.
