Online Women's Mental Health Therapy
Women's Unique Challenges
At Ascend Counseling, we acknowledge that women face unique challenges when it comes to supporting their mental health. From societal pressures to biological factors, women often find themselves navigating a complex web of emotions and experiences. Our therapy services are tailored to address these specific needs, providing a safe and supportive space for women to explore their feelings, heal from past traumas, and thrive in their lives.
​
Today’s society calls for women to wear all of their hats at the same time. Mother, partner, friend, daughter, coworker, boss, PTA attendee, the list goes on. Women have been asked to fulfill these roles with a smile on their faces and a backup plan just in case, but rarely are they asked the questions that matter, like what can be done to help them in their times of need.
Understanding Women's Mental Health
Women's mental health can encompass a wide range of issues, including anxiety, depression,
trauma, and relationship difficulties. These don't include the different stages that women may
find themselves experiencing, like hormonal fluctuations, pregnancy, postpartum experiences,
and menopause which can all significantly impact a woman’s mental well-being. At Ascend
Counseling, we utilize holistic therapy in ways that help women find strength in their everyday
nutrition, movements, and environment so that they can find the peace within to feel safe and
nurtured. Our practice aims to provide support for women at any stage in their life so that they
feel uplifted and understood after every session.
Healing from Sexual Abuse & Trauma
For many women, the trauma of sexual abuse can cast a long shadow over their lives. Our practice recognizes the immense courage it takes to confront these experiences and begin the healing process. Our therapists provide a compassionate and non-judgmental environment where survivors can explore their feelings, process their trauma, and learn coping strategies to reclaim their sense of safety and agency.
Women healing from sexual abuse often face a myriad of emotions including shame, guilt, anger, and fear. Our therapists utilize evidence-based techniques such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), Accelerated Resolution therapy (ART), and mindfulness practices to help women navigate these complex emotions and cultivate durability to the things that may trigger their trauma responders.
Counseling Where Women Can Thrive
Through therapy, women learn to challenge negative thought patterns, set boundaries, and
prioritize self-care. Our therapists are committed to creating a safe and inclusive space for
women of all backgrounds, identities, and experiences. We recognize the intersectionality of
women's mental health and strive to honor the diverse lived experiences of our clients.
