Why High-Achieving Women Work With Wellcore Healing
Understanding & Experience
As a female clinician and business owner, previous non-profit director, & tech consultant, I understand the unique challenges women face— and remain committed to providing online therapy for:
Gender-Based Workplace Challenges
I’m passionate about providing a safe space for women to reclaim their confidence and thrive professionally & personally. Counseling and coaching support will always be tailored to your unique needs, current industry pressures, as well as personal goals.
Treatment Tailored to Workplace Stressors
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
Learn how to challenge anxiety, self-doubt, imposter syndrome, and negative thought patterns.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
Develop the skills to navigate workplace stress, communication challenges, relationship stressors, and general uncertainty in high-pressure environments.
Internal Family Systems (IFS)
Address perfectionism, self-criticism, anxious self talk, and internal conflicts that may be holding you back.
Mindfulness & Positive Psychology
Cultivate resilience, self-compassion, and a sense of empowerment in both your career and personal life.
Safe to Process Industry-Specific Challenges
Women in male-dominated industries or roles can easily feel isolated. Remote therapy connects you with a therapist who best meets your needs—without the geographical limitations of in-person care. You deserve therapy that aligns with your experiences, industry-specific stressors, and personal ambitions—without having to settle for a generalist.
Convenience & Flexibility
Between back-to-back meetings, deadlines, and personal responsibilities, finding time for in-person therapy is challenging. Virtual support eliminates unnecessary commuting, while increasing options for where to attend session. With virtual therapy, you can seamlessly integrate mental wellness into your schedule without sacrificing productivity.
Increased Privacy & Comfort
For women in high-visibility roles, online therapy offers a discreet, private, safe place where you can openly reflect on and discuss your challenges without concerns of being seen at a therapy office. You can participate in the therapy process from the comfort of your own space, making it easier to be both vulnerable and authentic.
Accessibility
Whether you’re constantly traveling for work, managing a remote team, or living in an area with limited access to specialized therapists, online therapy ensures you get the support you need—wherever you are. No need to put your mental health on hold due to travel, relocations, or a lack of local providers who understand your unique challenges.
