You may look like you’re coping on the outside, while internally feeling stuck in patterns like overthinking, people-pleasing, perfectionism, or self-doubt. Or maybe you've spent years looking after everyone else, but struggle to extend the same compassion to yourself.
Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, self-aware and high-functioning, but still find themselves caught in patterns they can’t seem to shift.
Therapy can help you understand where these patterns come from—and begin creating meaningful, lasting change.

The first step to getting help is the hardest. When you feel vulnerable, it's difficult to know who to trust. This can make us anxious, fearing the worst, or worried, wondering if our situation will be seen as trivial. All of those are valid feelings. Imagine stepping into a space where you feel safe, heard, and deeply understood and having someone gently guide you through a journey of self-discovery, highlighting the aspects of yourself that empower and uplift you as you work through the things troubling you.

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.
