There’s something uniquely grounding about in-person sessions - the softness of a couch, the warmth of sunlight in the room, the quiet knowing that you’re not alone. It offers
consistency, safety, and a place where you get to just be.

For many of us, these spaces might feel few & far between.

At CFT, we value the importance of maintaining a hybrid model that increases access to care. For those who are interested in in-person sessions, we have clinicians who are available at both our Loop and Lincoln Square offices. Please visit our website to schedule a consultation!

It Takes a Village — and Not Just for Parenting.

At CFT, we are firm believers in how essential community is to our mental and emotional
well-being.

In this latest article on our website, we discuss:

- Why humans are biologically and psychologically wired for connection

- What the research says about social support and resilience

- How to be a good villager yourself

- What community means through the lens of psychology, sociology, and feminist thought

This is for anyone feeling burnt out, isolated, or ready to reclaim the power of
collective care. ✨

Being a woman isn’t just emotionally taxing—it’s financially draining too. From the pink tax to the wage gap, unpaid labor, and skyrocketing childcare costs, the price of womanhood keeps rising. And the toll on mental health? Enormous.

In this article, we break down the hidden costs women face every day and how they impact financial and emotional well-being. More importantly, we explore what we can do about it.

Let’s talk about the real cost of being a woman in 2025.
Share your thoughts—have you felt the weight of these financial disparities? What changes do you want to see?
