Female Counsellors in Dronfield
I offer a safe, calm space that is empathic, authentic, and non-judgemental. I fundamentally work with a humanistic, relational approach, appreciating that each client is unique in their lived experience. I also use an integrative approach to psychotherapy, meaning I use more than one modality. For example, I integrate developmental approaches, as I align with the theories that our childhood experiences impact us into adulthood, our sense of who we are, and what we bring to our close relationships. This is often unconscious to our day-to-day awareness.

Becoming a parent can feel very different from what you expected.
Have you found yourself constantly on edge, checking your child’s breathing, imagining worst-case scenarios, or stuck with thoughts that scare you? You might feel overwhelmed by the constant decision-making. You may find yourself snappy, exhausted, overstimulated, or struggling with a birth that still feels upsetting to think about.
Sometimes becoming a parent doesn’t just change your present, it brings your past with it. Old childhood experiences can resurface in ways you weren’t expecting, feeling more intense now that you’re responsible for someone else.

Is your self-worth holding you back? Are you looking for a safe space to speak openly, separate from your usual connections. Do you find yourself moving between overwhelm and shutdown, one moment everything feels too much, the next, you feel disconnected or unsure of yourself? Would you value support with discovering tools for emotional regulation and self-care. Maybe you're here looking at counselling profiles because you’re ready to explore what’s holding you back, discover your voice, what matters to you. My experience is rooted in supporting self-esteem, personal/work stress, anxiety, worry, and historical relational trauma.

Hi there! I’m Aneela. Life can be difficult, busy, and messy, which is why we all need support from time to time to deal with it. Our emotional health is an important part of our overall health, so when that is affected other areas of our lives are also. It affects how we feel about ourselves, others, and the world around us - so I'm glad you've stopped by. Therapy can give you power over your circumstances rather than them having power over you. Therapy can be an important part of taking care of ourselves, so we are better able to understand what’s going on for us. I would love to be a helping hand in this process for you.

I’m Nicola, I work with individuals and couples trying to make sense of change in their lives. Change may be a natural part of human life, but it can be difficult to figure out what happens next when suddenly something new occurs.

I hope to help people make sense of the emotional impact of life events and how they influence day to day emotions. Therapy gives you the time and place to process the difficult events in your life.

We seek out therapy for many reasons, often when needing extra support for difficult life situations. Perhaps when feeling invisible, lonely, experiencing symptoms of anxiety, depression or insomnia. Perhaps struggling with overwhelming feelings or emotions, or finding relationships with others (such as partners, family, colleagues) challenging. You aren't alone, and the good news is that psychotherapy and counselling can help make sense of whatever is happening with no expectations to perform, to please or hold everything together.

FAQ - Therapist Gender
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.
