feminist therapy

Therapy with a feminist perspective is more than just focusing on inequality and injustice. At New Moon Awakenings, feminism is integrated into treatment to honor the whole person you are. All of the various characteristics and identities you hold allow you to experience varying degrees of privilege and oppression (also called intersectionality). Sometimes it may be necessary to take a closer look at the connection between you and the things you are struggling with. In doing so, the goal is to allow the increased understanding to empower you to expand possibilities and choices available to you. Regardless of what society might rigidly expect of you, liberating you from the weight of those expectations so you may confidently define your own path can be a powerful part of therapy.
