Womanhood is full of moments that quietly rewrite who you are — becoming a mother, losing yourself in a relationship, stepping into a new chapter with no map. Maybe you're pregnant or newly postpartum, and the experience looks nothing like you expected. Maybe your children are growing up, and you're not sure who you are outside of that role. Maybe you're carrying anxiety you can't quite name, trying to hold everything together while quietly wondering if there's a different way to live.

You’re used to being the capable one—the helper, the high achiever, the one others rely on. But lately you feel stretched thin, emotional, anxious, or not like yourself. This may be tied to fertility struggles, pregnancy or postpartum changes, reproductive loss, trauma, identity strain, or major life transitions. You’re finding it harder to keep pushing through and want a place where you don’t have to be the strong one all the time, especially when you’re usually the one caring for others. You long for space to be real, supported, and not have to hold it all by yourself.

You feel deeply. You think deeply. But somewhere along the way, you were told that your depth was “too much.” That your softness wasn’t strong enough. That your emotions should be controlled and managed, instead of understood and celebrated.
You’ve been aching to make changes, but you’re worried everything might go wrong and will prove you’ve never been good enough anyway.
Let’s create a life you love.

Hello and welcome to a new approach to healing. You don’t have to keep doing things the same way you have always done them. And therapy doesn’t have to be the same as it has always been. Psychotherapy can be more than dry, cold, and clinical. It can be warm, humorous, and enlightening. I offer a warm and meaningful connection with each client. In the space of that connection I use a variety of evidence based, trauma informed, and strength based therapeutic approaches to assist clients in rediscovering and trusting themselves and their own strengths as well as building and growing new tools and coping skills.

My name is Shalanda, owner of TookesWilder Guidance. As a retired military spouse (24 years) and mother of four, I have been through many life and career transitions that can be stress and anxiety provoking. I see many women and they all come in with similar issues. So, I devote myself to encouraging and empowering women from the career moms to the stay at home moms. The biggest problem is we think self-care is selfish, but how can we take care of our loved ones if we are not taking care of ourselves?

I’m Michelle Soares, LMSW, a relational therapist specializing in complex trauma and the lasting impact of exploitation, violence, and chronic survival-based stress. I work with individuals who feel stuck in patterns shaped by what they've lived through rather than who they want to be.
My approach is grounded in relational attunement, helping clients understand how their nervous system, relationships, and identity have adapted to survive. Together we slow things down, make meaning of these patterns, and build the capacity for choice, boundaries, and self-trust. Therapy is not about "fixing" you.

Individuals, couples, and families who come to my office are generally in some sort of pain or discomfort, moving back and forth between what is happening in their lives and what they want from life. Our conversations help shed light on why this is happening and what we can do to help you feel better. Although I use a variety of psychotherapeutic methods in my practice, the foundation of my work is in the relationship we create, the trust we establish, and the compassion we share.

I have been working with adolescents and parents in the school system for over 19 years as a school counselor, and have held my LPC license for over 14 years. I am an LPC supervisor. I enjoy working with adolescents, helping them to work through their issues, ranging from underachieving to relationship conflict (and everything in between). I also enjoy working with adults, helping them to understand their roles as parents so that they are better able to help support their children in a positive, healthy manner. In addition to parenting, I also provide marriage and family counseling.

Women's Issues Therapists
How do you encourage a woman to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual may be suffering, and what effects it has on them, should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
How can women prepare for therapy?
Women can prepare for therapy by being willing to talk about their past experiences and their private thoughts. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. Between sessions, it can be useful to write down notes about their reaction to a given event or how they felt at a particular time.
How long does therapy for women’s issues often last?
As with any type of therapy, sessions depend on the individual and the challenges they face. Therapy types like Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Prolonged exposure therapy (PET), and Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. In some cases, such as for women with eating disorders, residential treatment may be recommended for an individual who is judged to be at high risk of self-harm. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realized.
How can women overcome stigma around specific challenges in order to seek therapy?
Women dealing with domestic abuse, sexual assault, eating disorders, and any other number of troubles may feel a stigma around seeking help. It’s important to remember that these issues are not uncommon and there is no shame in getting help for them. Therapy is confidential, and women can talk about their experiences without fear of judgment. Seeking therapy can be a courageous and liberating act, and an important step toward healing and recovery.
