Between managing work, romantic relationships, family relationships, and your own identity, life can feel like a constant balancing act.
The pressure you might feel to successfully manage all of these aspects of life at the same time can be stressful and overwhelming.
Perhaps you are navigating a significant life event such as a breakup, job change, IVF, or unplanned pregnancy. Maybe stressors have simply been adding up over time, leading to feelings of anxiety, sadness, frustration, disappointment, or shame. You know that life has the potential to look different than it does today, but you’re not sure how to make that happen.
The therapists at Bridgepoint Psychology Center are here to support you in breaking free of negative patterns from the past, processing difficult emotions, navigating change, and creating the life that you desire.

Our Approach to Women’s Therapy
Everyone deserves a space and time that is dedicated entirely to them.
At Bridgepoint, our goal is to create an environment where you can invest in yourself, feel comfortable opening up about what you need, and receive the support you deserve.
You are the expert on your own life, and your therapist is here to walk with you on your journey. We will help you choose your goals for therapy, which will shape how we work together. We will revisit these often to ensure we’re still on the right track and working toward the changes that are most important to you.
Your therapist will support you as you navigate important life decisions, cultivate healthier relationships, identify and draw on your own strengths and resilience, and build skills that you can take into every area of your life. Over the course of our work together, we’ll help you clarify your goals and what you truly want and need. From there, we will help you step into a greater acceptance of yourself and the incredible value you offer the world around you, and assist you in making the changes that feel right so you can live a life that feels joyful and meaningful to you.
