A very warm welcome. Reaching out for support in times of change, distress, or to process issues from the past can feel daunting. And yet, when life events thwart us and you seek out therapy, you are taking the first step towards positive change. You may feel anxious, depressed, overwhelmed or lacking in self-esteem. Perhaps you have experienced trauma including birth trauma or a loss through death, divorce, or miscarriage. Or it may not be fully clear yet what’s bothering you. Whatever your concerns may be, they matter. I'm Nadine, a BACP registered Counsellor, Psychologist, Mentor, and Midwife and I'd love to hear from you.

Hello, I'm Maddie, an experienced counsellor working in the centre of Bath.

If you're struggling with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, unresolved trauma, a major life change or simply feeling 'stuck', I can help you feel better, think more clearly and move forward quickly and positively. I believe we're all able to achieve lasting change in our lives, and I'll help you access your own strengths to make the changes you want. Sessions with me involve friendly discussion of your issues, cognitive therapy, Rewind and BWRT techniques where appropriate, and practical strategies for moving forward.

I offer individual psychotherapy sessions in a private, safe, and confidential setting where we can discuss what you would like to work on. Work is open-ended, meaning it continues for as long as you want or need it. This may be as few as six to twelve sessions to help you clarify your thinking about a particular issue, but most people remain in therapy from six months to three years or longer. Work moves at a pace and in a direction dictated by the client. What is needed from the therapeutic relationship may take time to emerge or change over time. I aim to support open dialogue and meaningful personal development.

When we have a problem we often want to talk to someone who is not going to judge us. Talking to friends or family you may be afraid of what they might think or be worried about upsetting them. This can make it hard to be completely open about what is happening and block our ability to fully understand. Seeing a psychotherapist is an opportunity to build a safe trusting relationship where they can offer a more impartial point of view. It is my be that it is the quality of this relationship between the counsellor and client that helps us to marshal our own resources to find a resolution or make changes.

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.
