The Little Breathing Space
PhD
Do you want to reduce stress, irritability, tiredness, anxiety, insomnia and physical pain that comes with the menopause, to improve your stress resilience and get back control over your life? If you are a woman going through the menopause you may feel exhausted, anxious and overwhelmed by your experience and wish you could gain some distance and control over what feels like a rollercoaster ride. Mindfulness has been scientifically proven to reduce stress, anxiety and mild depression and has been shown to modulate a women's experience of common physical menopausal symptoms like hot flashes and so improve a sense of wellbeing

One of the core principles in Cognitive Psychotherapy states that the way in which people understand, explain and conceptualize the problems they suffer in life is itself a big part of those problems. You might be feeling anxiety as a consequence of overthinking, you might be experiencing your mood going down after using certain concepts or words to define yourself, you might be feeling frustrated after a relationship didn't work out as you expected... In all cases your mind plays a main role, and the way how your thoughts connect with your emotions and create certain behaviours forms patterns that we can discuss in a safe space.

Are you highly sensitive (HSP) and feeling overwhelmed? Perhaps anxiety, isolation, work or anger issues are impacting relationships? Something is wrong in your life and you can't make sense of it? Talking things through online with a non judgmental experienced professional can help you find clarity and break negative patterns.

Are you tired of feeling anxious, of worrying, of being stressed out? Are you tired of feeling powerless in the face of problems in your relationships, at work, in your family etc.? Are you tired of regularly acting in ways that you know are not in your best interests, out of fear of being judged by others (or by yourself) or plain self-sabotage? Are you tired of avoiding dealing with your problems only to see them recur in your life, albeit in new and more refined ways? Are you tired of being depressed, feeling like things can never change? If you answer "yes" to any of these questions, you have come to the right place.

Chances are therapy will help you learn tools to understand more deeply what you are trying to communicate about your emotional lives. We are all in relationships emotionally, whether at work, or school, or in your personal life. The communication in these relationships may break down. Here, you will learn tools for identifying the reasons why, and learn what can be done to improve the situation. Improvement will include deeper understanding and clearer communication with others.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counsellor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counsellors are all licensed mental health professionals. In many countries, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counsellor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counsellors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
What type of therapist is right for me?
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counsellor who can offer short-term, targeted support.
Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counselling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.
What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
