Frances O'Keeffe
Psychologist, MPsych, PsyBA General
Serves Area
You may be someone who is used to coping. You manage the demands of work, family and life, and others may see you as capable, resilient and someone they can rely on. But sometimes the load becomes heavier than expected. You might feel overwhelmed, anxious, exhausted or simply less like yourself, even while continuing to get on with things and keep everything together. For more than 20 years, I’ve worked alongside first responders and people in demanding, high-responsibility roles. I understand that even capable, resilient people who carry a lot sometimes need support too.

Margo Weekes
Psychologist, MPsych, PsyBA General
Serves Area
I am passionate about supporting others to live a more meaningful life and deepen their connection within themselves and their relationships. My approach is curious, compassionate and collaborative. Therapy offers a space to slow down and explore your experiences together, supporting you to know and accept yourself more fully, and reconnect with your innate values, vitality, and agency. I often work with people who may come across as capable and doing ok externally, but inside might be struggling with anxiety, self doubt, internalised emotions, or not feeling as fulfilled in their life or relationships as they'd like.

I assist/guide you to reveal and heal the parts of you that carry thoughts, feelings and behaviours that no longer serve you. It is not always doom and gloom. We work together light-heartedly to safely reveal your unconscious motivations and inner strength, towards lasting healing.

You might be the strong one. Capable, high‑functioning, the one everyone leans on. But inside you feel anxious, wired, and tired of holding it all together. You overthink conversations, over‑give in relationships, and question yourself afterward. Maybe you reach for wine, food, or constant busyness just to take the edge off. You may have experienced trauma, grief, or a narcissistic relationship that shook your sense of safety. You want to feel calm, secure, and at home in yourself again, in your relationships, and in your body.

I offer support for people like you who are feeling overwhelmed, lost, alone, or tired of trying to figure it out themselves.

Women's Issues Therapists
How do you encourage a woman to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual may be suffering, and what effects it has on them, should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.

How can women prepare for therapy?
Women can prepare for therapy by being willing to talk about their past experiences and their private thoughts. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. Between sessions, it can be useful to write down notes about their reaction to a given event or how they felt at a particular time.

How long does therapy for women’s issues often last?
As with any type of therapy, sessions depend on the individual and the challenges they face. Therapy types like Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), Prolonged exposure therapy (PET), and Eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing (EMDR) can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. In some cases, such as for women with eating disorders, residential treatment may be recommended for an individual who is judged to be at high risk of self-harm. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realised.

How can women overcome stigma around specific challenges in order to seek therapy?
Women dealing with domestic abuse, sexual assault, eating disorders, and any other number of troubles may feel a stigma around seeking help. It’s important to remember that these issues are not uncommon and there is no shame in getting help for them. Therapy is confidential, and women can talk about their experiences without fear of judgment. Seeking therapy can be a courageous and liberating act, and an important step toward healing and recovery.
