Women’s Mental Health Treatment
For Depression, Anxiety, BPD, & More
Women face unique challenges and pressures in life and in recovery. That’s why we founded The Cove at Momentum Recovery. Created by women and led by women, The Cove is a safe and welcoming community where every woman will find the support and the tools she needs to heal — and to thrive. Our flexible continuum of care and holistic approach to treatment accommodate the multifaceted nature of mental health, addressing the psychological, emotional, physical, and spiritual well-being of every woman in our community.
Women & Mental Health Recovery
Everyone deserves to enjoy mental health, yet women face additional challenges that require specialized care. For example, over half of women have experienced sexual assault, as compared to one in three men. One in four women have experienced rape, while only one in 26 men has. Women are more than twice as likely than men to be diagnosed with depression, and approximately 75% of people diagnosed with borderline personality disorder are female. Societal pressures, gender roles, hormonal changes, and life transitions like pregnancy or motherhood can further complicate this landscape.
