Therapy for Women
READ MORETherapy for women at Vida Collective is for women in Sherwood who feel emotionally stretched, overwhelmed, or quietly carrying stress they have not had space to process.

This service is for women who want care that feels calm, supportive, and aligned with where they are right now.
As therapy continues, women often begin to feel more emotionally settled and grounded. Stress feels less consuming, emotions become easier to understand, and there is more confidence in responding to challenges rather than feeling stuck or reactive. Clients frequently notice a growing sense of clarity and steadiness that supports healthier boundaries and more balanced relationships within everyday life in Sherwood.
Sessions tend to explore emotional patterns, relationship dynamics, and the ways long standing stress has shaped how you cope and connect. Therapy is offered both in person and virtually near you, allowing support to fit naturally into your routine. The focus remains on creating safety, relief, and sustainable support that unfolds at a pace aligned with your capacity and real life needs.
Trauma Therapy
READ MORETrauma therapy supports women who feel emotionally guarded, reactive, or disconnected due to past experiences. These patterns often reflect adaptive survival responses rather than personal shortcomings. Therapy offers a supportive environment to explore these responses with compassion.

"She came to therapy feeling unseen within her family, always striving to meet their expectations. Through compassionate exploration, she uncovered old wounds tied to her sense of worth. With time, she set boundaries, made choices aligned with her values, and created space that felt like her own. Today, she maintains a healthier relationship with her family — one built on respect and authenticity — and no longer defines her worth by anyone’s approval but her own."
From Seeking Approval to Self-Acceptance (Anonymous)
"This client began therapy during a severe depressive episode, convinced she should handle everything alone. Most sessions started with “I don’t know,” and she carried deep guilt and self-blame. Over time, she learned to pause, identify her emotions, and name what she truly felt. As she set boundaries and reconnected with her voice, she left a toxic relationship and regained clarity. By the end, her depression had lifted, and she walked away feeling seen, whole, and empowered."
From Avoidance to Empowerment (Anonymous)
"She arrived feeling disconnected, insisting her childhood trauma “didn’t really affect” her — yet her relationships showed otherwise. Through therapy, she realized her anxiety was her body remembering. As she explored attachment wounds, allowed herself to grieve, and embraced compassion, she learned closeness didn’t mean losing control. Today, she lives with peace and safety, now married with a child, honoring the version of herself who once doubted healing was possible."
From “It Didn’t Affect Me” to Healing the Past (Anonymous)
"A high achiever in every area of life, this client still felt perpetually “not enough.” In therapy, she learned that her harsh self-criticism wasn’t a fixed truth but a pattern she could soften. As she practiced compassion, rest, and joy without guilt, her inner critic lost its power. Now she moves through life with balance and acceptance — no longer just knowing she’s enough, but finally feeling it."
