Women's Counseling and Therapy - Joanna Leigh and JL Consultants Professional Practice

Joanna Leigh and JL Consultants Counseling

WOMEN’S CONCERNS:

Some life struggles are common to women, and better understood in the context of what it means to be a woman historically, socially, and biologically. The unique experience of women in society brings about certain roles they have been given or taken on as well as special strengths they bring to bear in any given situation. Through the teaching of assertiveness, and the decreasing of fears that may be impeding happiness and success, as well as the development of better self-esteem, Joanna Leigh can help women achieve their personal goals and improve their lives.

Certain issues specific to women tend revolve around caretaking stresses, as well as from feelings of being unnoticed, undervalued, or unacknowledged. In the recent decade, more women than ever have come forward suffering from body image problems, depression, perfectionism, sexual problems, disordered eating, and self-sabotaging behavior. And of course, women are the primary victims of sexual crimes, and can often be victims of emotional abuse.

Joanna Leigh believes that all of society’s girls and women are imbued with all of the strengths life can offer, and in a caring, thoughtful, proactive way will seek to assist women in healing past pain, recognize, understand, and change self-defeating behavior, and discover and foster these innate inner strengths to move forward in life in a way that is positive and healthy.
