A Holistic Approach to Therapy for Women.

Regulate your rhythm, reconnect to self, and reintegrate joy

Specialized support for women navigating PMDD, PMS, ADHD, and hormone-driven health.

My Approach

Grounded in a humanistic lens, I blend an integrative set of therapeutic approaches to support healing that feels personal. My work draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Narrative Therapy, somatic work, mindfulness, attachment theory, and functional nutrition, tailored to what's actually in front of us in a given session. I specialize in working with women navigating PMDD, PMS, ADHD, chronic pain, and other hormone-driven health concerns. A meaningful part of this work is neuroscience-informed psychoeducation, helping you understand why your brain responds the way it does to hormonal shifts, alongside lifestyle support that builds a steadier baseline over time.

A little about me…

I'm Margo Gaza, a therapist, photographer, and artist deeply passionate about helping women navigate their hormonal and mental health journeys. I am most at peace when I am in nature with my camera. I am an Associate Marriage & Family Therapist. I hold a Master's degree in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University. As someone who has experience with hormonal sensitivity, I know firsthand how life changing it can be to understand your menstrual cycle and support your baseline. This personal journey has fueled my empathy and commitment to providing a safe, nonjudgmental, and compassionate space for my clients to regulate their rhythm, reconnect to self, and reintegrate joy.
