Are you struggling with overwhelming feelings that don’t quite make sense? Do you find yourself reacting more strongly than expected, or often feel physically tense? Perhaps past experiences keep surfacing unexpectedly, leaving you unsettled or on edge.
Sometimes, the things we’ve been through can affect the way we have learnt to respond, which is our brain and body’s way of protecting ourselves from being hurt by such experiences again. This can lead us to think the worst, blame ourselves for things going wrong, or see things as more dangerous than they really are. We might also avoid situations, or keep busy to avoid thinking.

Do you have questions about your feelings or behaviours that you're struggling to understand? Are you feeling lost? Or stuck?
I believe the experiences we have and the stories we tell ourselves can help keep us repeating behaviours or relationships and even prevent us from finding the answers we seek. We will work together to find yours.
Are you a couple struggling with the impact of those around you? Are you working together to overcome infidelity or addiction. I am able to work with you, to help you find your way and to help you improve your communication.

As a woman, do you put other people's needs above your own and find it difficult to say no? Maybe it's hard to say how you really feel or to ask for what you need? Do you find being nice all the time and avoiding upsetting anyone could be taking it’s toll, especially when you already feel stressed and overwhelmed by the many roles and relationships in your life? I wonder what life would look like if you felt calmer and more confident in yourself? How would it change your personal relationships and your life in general? What would it feel like to be able to voice what it is you want? It's certainly challenging being a woman today.

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.
