Women continue to face discriminatory practices, attitudes, and institutions even in modern society, and these issues may affect their mental health. Women may choose to enter counseling for gender-related issues or other mental health concerns, and, as a result of their gender experience, women’s issues come up within therapy.
Available Treatment Options
Many types of therapy can assist people with women’s issues. Feminist Therapy approaches counseling that centers on women’s and other genders besides men’s experiences, focusing on relationships, social understanding, empowerment, and advocating for equality. Women may also feel comfortable in group therapy with other women, as being surrounded by people who can understand their experiences can be therapeutic.
