As we continue to navigate the pandemic, we will continue to provide secure teletherapy options while some of our therapists begin to resume in person sessions. We welcome your call. Read more.
Womencare unequivocally stands against the violence, oppression, and injustice perpetrated on Black and Brown people by White individuals and institutions. The intergenerational infliction of trauma continues to do harm. Racism kills. Racism kills by the systems of oppression designed to keep Black and Brown people down. Read more.

Hey, you. Got a sec?
I know that a lot of you had to put a heck of a lot of effort into getting through this holiday. It's exhausting to be around people who don't get it - who don't get YOU.
The very worst part of it all is that it can, at its worst, make you question your own worth.
