SERVING: Colorado | Massachusetts | Vermont | Florida

EMPOWERED THERAPY FOR WOMEN WORKING IN MALE-DOMINATED FIELDS

As a woman navigating a male-dominated industry, you may feel immense pressure to perform, prove your worth, and push through challenges that others don’t face. Whether you're in tech, STEM, executive leadership, entrepreneurship, business ownership, or athletics, the demands of excelling in these spaces can take a toll on your mental well-being, confidence, and work-life balance. As a female clinician and business owner, as well as a previous non-profit director and consultant in the tech space, I too understand the unique struggles high-achieving women

face—

As a result, I am passionate about providing a safe space for other high-achieving women to process these experiences, reclaim their confidence, and develop strategies to thrive both professionally and personally.

Alexis Verbin, LCSW, LICSW at Wellcore Healing offers specialized Therapy for Women Working in Male-Dominated Fields (e.g., Tech, Law, Finance, Business, STEM) in Denver, Boston, Burlington, Clearwater, and beyond!

Common Challenges Women in Male-Dominated Industries Face

1. IMPOSTER SYNDROME & SELF-DOUBT

Many successful women struggle with feeling like a fraud—questioning their abilities despite years of experience, degrees, and accolades. You might fear being "found out" or feel like you don’t belong in leadership rooms or high-powered roles.

HOW WORKING WITH A THERAPIST CAN HELP: In therapy, you will learn how to reframe these thoughts, recognize your true worth, and silence that inner critic.

2. PERFECTIONISM & OVERWORKING

You may feel the pressure to overperform, never make mistakes, and prove yourself to gain the respect that your male counterparts receive more easily. Occurrences like this can lead to chronic stress, anxiety, and exhaustion.

HOW WORKING WITH A THERAPIST CAN HELP: Therapy teaches you how to set realistic expectations, embrace imperfection, and find a healthier work-life balance.

3. GENDER BIAS, WORKPLACE DISCRIMINATION & MICROAGGRESSIONS

When women face gender-based challenges, unconscious bias, or exclusion in the workplace, it can take a real emotional toll that most men do not have to face. Whether you are the ONLY woman standing in the room, people are not taking you seriously, or you are being passed up for promotions, these experiences can impact your confidence and mental well-being.

HOW WORKING WITH A THERAPIST CAN HELP: Therapy provides individuals with a safe space to not only process these experiences, but to also build a new level of resilience. By working with a therapist well versed in the tech space and business world, you will have an opportunity to aquire assertive communication strategies.

4. BURNOUT & WORK-LIFE BALANCE

Constantly feeling like you have to "do it all" can lead to burnout, exhaustion, and emotional depletion. Many high-achieving women struggle with setting boundaries and prioritizing self-care.

HOW WORKING WITH A THERAPIST CAN HELP: Therapy helps you identify burnout signs early, set firm boundaries, and build a sustainable balance between work and life.

5. ANXIETY, STRESS, AND MENTAL LOAD

Juggling a high-stakes career, leadership responsibilities, and personal life can result in chronic stress / burnout, anxiety, and mental exhaustion. The pressure to always be "on," to always "perform," and always "exceed expectations" can feel relentless with no clear end in sight.

HOW WORKING WITH A THERAPIST CAN HELP: Now for the good news! By working with a trained therapist who understands leadership, entrepreneurship, tech, STEM and the business space, you’ll have the opportunity to learn coping tools and develop strategies to manage work stress effectively, regulate emotions, and create a healthier mindset.

THIS IS YOUR TIME TO THRIVE!

ONLINE THERAPY FOR HIGH-ACHIEVING WOMEN

The are immense benefits of working with an Online Therapist as a busy, high-achieving, female professional.

Adding regular therapy appointments to an already jam-packed schedule can feel daunting, as it can be viewed as another item to complete on the never-ending to-do list. As a busy professional, working mom, executive, or entrepreneur, finding time for therapy is like finding a needle in a haystack. That’s why online therapy has been seen as a true game-changer for high-achieving women in male-dominated industries. Working with a therapist who provides online counseling is beneficial because it helps you prioritize your mental wellness without feeling like you are disrupting your hectic schedule.

Why Online Therapy is the Perfect Fit for High-Achieving Women

1. Convenience & Flexibility

Between back-to-back meetings, deadlines, and personal responsibilities, carving out time for in-person therapy can be challenging. What's wonderful is that attending therapy online eliminates the need for unnecessary commuting. You can attend sessions from a lot of unique locations, whether you’re at home, work, in the car, or anywhere else private and confidential.

✔️ With virtual therapy (e.g., online therapy, telehealth, etc.), you can seamlessly integrate mental wellness into your schedule without sacrificing productivity.

2. Increased Privacy & Comfort

For women in leadership or high-visibility roles, seeking therapy in a traditional setting might feel intimidating. 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.

3. Accessible, No Matter Where You Are

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.

4. Therapy is Tailored to Your Unique Needs as a High-Achieving Woman in Male-Dominated Industries

At Wellcore Healing, I specialize in working with women who are navigating high-stress, high-performance environments. Online therapy allows me to provide customized, evidence-based care that fits seamlessly into your lifestyle.

✔️ Sessions are always structured around your identified goals, whether it’s overcoming imposter syndrome, managing stress or burnout, navigating anxiety, perfectionism, or setting boundaries in your professional and personal life.

5. A Safe Space to Process Any Industry-Specific Challenges

For women in tech, STEM, business, finance, law, medicine, and sports, the pressures of male-dominated industries can feel isolating. Online therapy connects you with a therapist who truly understands the emotional toll of breaking barriers—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 provider.

HOW DOES ANXIETY THERAPY, IMPOSTER SYNDROME THERAPY, SELF-ESTEEM THERAPY, AND PERFECTIONISM THERAPY CONNECT TO THIS WORK?

The challenges that high-achieving women face in male-dominated industries are deeply interconnected with anxiety, imposter syndrome, self-esteem struggles, and perfectionism. These types of struggles don’t just exist in isolation, as they most often reinforce one another.

This can result in a vicious cycle of: a) Constantly doubting yourself b) Working long hours (e.g., overworking) c) Mental & Emotional Exhaustion that doesn't stop.

BELOW YOU WILL FIND HOW THEY CONNECT

ANXIETY & HIGH PRESSURE CAREERS

Unfortunately, women often experience high levels of stress or burnout, performance anxiety, chronic stress or burnout, and workplace stress/anxiety when employed in competitive fields. This comes from high expectations from self and others, workplace biases, and the pressure to excel.

This often results in the following:

✔️ Constant overthinking (ruminations) and fear of failure

Difficulty setting healthy boundaries and saying "no"

✔️Physical symptoms like headaches, GI issues, fatigue, or insomnia

As an Anxiety Therapist, I can help you develop stress management techniques, emotional regulation skills, and a healthier mindset for success without burnout.

IMPOSTER SYNDROME & SELF DOUBT

Even the most accomplished women can struggle with feeling like a fraud—like they don’t truly deserve their success or will eventually be “found out.” This is especially common in tech, STEM, executive roles, and entrepreneurship, where women are underrepresented. Imposter syndrome can show up as:

✔️ Downplaying your achievements or attributing them to luck

✔️ Feeling like you have to work twice as hard to prove yourself

✔️ Avoiding new opportunities out of fear you’re not “good enough”

As an Imposter Syndrome Therapist, I can help you challenge these beliefs, own your accomplishments, and develop unshakable confidence.

SELF-ESTEEM & CONFIDENCE LEADERSHIP

In the leadership space, woman can struggle with low self-esteem due to constant comparison, workplace biases, and/or struggles with visibility and assertiveness. Low self-esteem might look like:

✔️ Hesitating to speak up in meetings or advocate for yourself

✔️ Feeling like you’re never “qualified enough” despite years of experience

✔️ Internalizing criticism or workplace rejection

As a Self-Esteem Therapist, I can help you build confidence, set boundaries, and step into leadership with authenticity and self-assurance.

PERFECTIONISM & OVERWORKING

The pressure to always be exceptional, never make mistakes, and prove your worth can lead to perfectionism—keeping you stuck in cycles of overworking, burnout, and never feeling “good enough.” You might experience:

✔️ Fear of failure or harsh self-criticism over small mistakes

✔️ Difficulty delegating tasks because you feel like you need to control everything

✔️ A relentless drive for success that leaves no room for rest or joy

As a Perfectionism Therapist, I can help you break free from unrealistic expectations, embrace imperfection, and find balance between ambition and well-being.

HOW THIS ALL TIES IN TOGETHER

Therapy for high-achieving women in male-dominated fields incorporates anxiety therapy, imposter syndrome therapy, self-esteem therapy, and perfectionism therapy—because these struggles don’t exist separately. Instead, they often fuel each other, keeping you stuck in cycles of self-doubt, stress, and burnout.

At Wellcore Healing, I take an integrative, evidence-based approach to address these challenges holistically—helping you:

✔️ Manage stress and anxiety in high-pressure environments

✔️ Overcome self-doubt and imposter syndrome

✔️ Build lasting self-confidence and assertiveness

✔️ Let go of perfectionism and create a sustainable work-life balance

Ready to break free from these patterns and thrive in your career and personal life?
