My aim is to provide you with a warm open and confidential space for you to explore any concerns that may be troubling you free from the fear of judgement in what you 'feel' you would like to bring to counselling. I will ensure you are listened to and heard with respect and understanding. Together we can work through any concerns identified so that hopefully you will feel confident to go forward with a more positive outlook of yourself and your life. Therapy is very individualised and I believe it is important to ask 'you' what it is that will help you to move to a more accepting place.

Perhaps you have had a recent change in your life that has brought on these feelings; maybe you feel you’d like to know more about yourself, or things might have been getting increasingly difficult for you over time. Whatever's going on for you, my role is to support you in working through your difficulties, helping you to strengthen and grow your coping mechanisms.

Do you struggle with painful, destructive, abusive or addictive relationships? Perhaps you often ask yourself 'why are relationships so hard?' 'Why do I keep falling for emotionally unavailable people?' ‘Why do my emotions and my body feel so out of control?’ 'Why can't I say no, even though I'm exhausted and burnt out?' If so, you may be experiencing relational trauma. These patterns can leave you reeling with confusion and self doubt. They take a toll on your body, your mind and your work. But there is a solution.

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.
