As women, we take on many roles and challenges that can consume us and make it hard to enjoy the little things in life. The amazing parts of identifying as women can build us up in so many ways, but can also change over time. At our counseling practice located in Parker, CO we are women supporting women. Counselors at RAFT hope to collaboratively work with you to improve well-being, quality of life, and achieve your personal goals. Further, we will validate your experience and efforts to cope with distress, to explore alternative strategies.
Those who identify as women are especially vulnerable to developing mental health concerns as they may experience possible rejections from their families, discrimination, violence and hate criemes. In addition to discrimination in society, women may also be dealing with unique health concerns that significantly impact well-being. Women’s mental health can begin to suffer from low self-esteem, low self-worth and lack of confidence that typically develops from messages earlier in life. As adults, women place pressure on themselves within the community, workplace and home trying to balance multiple roles that can conflict and can leave you feeling burnt out. Recent data suggests women’s mental health was disproportionately impacted during the COVID-19 pandemic, which makes sense considering most women work in health-related fields, have had to navigate the demands for childcare, and stress of balancing work/home life among other factors (1). Additionally, transgender women disproportionately struggle to find housing, jobs, and financial stability as they face discrimination. Counselors at RAFT recognize the disparities women face in society and welcome you in gaining support.
