My name is Susan Strong, and my desire at Together Couples and Family Counselling is to help couples to learn how to communicate well through listening and sharing well and to help build families in which everyone can feel seen, soothed, safe, secure and loved. Through training with the Australian Institute of Family Counselling, Mindsight Institute, Gottman Institute, and the Australian Childhood Foundation I seek to use techniques based on interpersonal neurobiology, attachment theory and using a trauma informed lens to help families become closer, stronger, and each member feeling more completely known.

Living through a pandemic added additional pressures for many people who were already experiencing hardships. I felt it too. I can assist clients to gain clarity in choices and decisions they make and to reduce the haziness of brain fog many are experiencing. Connecting with clients is an essential component of counselling, taking an empathetic approach where I can see things from a clients perspective helps to develop the connection we will share together. Sometimes no matter how hard some of us try, we can no longer manage alone, we need to reach out and seek professional support. I can support you through your challenges.

Lack of communication can result in increasing conflict or distance regarding several challenges such as navigating the impact of an affair, family, stepfamily and in-law dynamics, financial strain, difference in goals and values, resentment and grudges, lack of emotional support, trust and jealously issues and intimacy and sexuality challenges.

Female Counsellors
Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or because they feel more comfortable with a therapist of their own gender due to shared life experiences or perspectives. Considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender may matter or improve their therapeutic experience. The most important consideration is that a client is able to build a trusting relationship with their therapist.
Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist. For women, this could be because they believe that they will be able to better connect with a woman, and that a female therapist will be able to relate to their specific challenges and personal issues. It may be particularly beneficial for women to see a female therapist, for example, for gender-specific issues, such as sexism in the workplace, relationship issues, and gender roles. The most important factor in therapy is the client-therapist connection, and a therapist's gender as well as many other factors may play an important role in this.
Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?
Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.
How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?
It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
