Sometimes, we can find ourselves presenting a face to the world that isn't our true self - one that we think will allow us to fit in, to build profitable careers, or to find the love we seek. We often don't realise we are doing this, but instead just feel a sense of stress or discomfort, physical or mental exhaustion, or find ourselves behaving in ways that don't seem healthy or in keeping with our ideals. My focus is to help you find fulfilment in life by being true to yourself and being more integrated as a person - to help you achieve success and balance in your relationships and in your worklife - whatever success means to you.

Midlife is particularly significant for women, as it’s when most of us will experience peri/menopause and it’s often a period of change: in our bodies, emotions, and cognition, and also possibly when our roles shift. Whatever our individual situation, it’s inevitably a time of transition and challenge. Therapy is more than healing, reflection, developing coping strategies and resilience, deepening self awareness, and all that good stuff. It’s also about grieving and expressing rage, fear and resentment, analysing our failures and successes, thinking about our identities and reconnecting with our Self, which is often neglected.

Sometimes the issues we carry feel too big or painful to put into words. Other times, they feel too small or strange to bring to therapy. You might worry you won’t be taken seriously—or that you’re “too much,” or “not enough.”
As a systemic therapist, I consider not just your internal world but also the relationships, histories, and wider social and cultural contexts that shape it. This means we might look together at recurring patterns, family dynamics, identity, or past experiences. My approach is collaborative and non-pathologising. I don’t offer quick fixes—but I do offer a space to think, feel, and be alongside.

Know thyself is an ancient aphorism that encourages individuals to explore and gain a deeper understanding of themselves. The phrase dates back to ancient Greece, where it was inscribed on the Temple of Apollo at Delphi. At its core, know thyself is a call to introspection, self-awareness, and personal growth. It encourages you to look within, explore your thoughts and emotions, and gain insight into their motivations, values, and beliefs. By knowing yourself, you can better understand your strengths and weaknesses, make more informed choices, and live a more authentic and fulfilling life.

You don't have to carry everything on your own anymore. Perhaps you've spent so long looking after everyone else that you've lost sight of yourself. Together, we'll gently make sense of your experiences, helping you understand the patterns that may be keeping you stuck. I believe every behaviour makes sense when we understand the story behind it. Rather than asking, "What's wrong with you?" I believe the more helpful question is, "What happened to you?" You don't need the right words- you can simply arrive as you are.

Women's Issues Counsellors
How do you encourage a woman to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual may be suffering, and what effects it has on them, should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
How can women prepare for therapy?
Women can prepare for therapy by being willing to talk about their past experiences and their private thoughts. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. Between sessions, it can be useful to write down notes about their reaction to a given event or how they felt at a particular time.
How long does therapy for women’s issues often last?
As with any type of therapy, sessions depend on the individual and the challenges they face. Therapy types like Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), Prolonged exposure therapy (PET), and Eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing (EMDR) can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. In some cases, such as for women with eating disorders, residential treatment may be recommended for an individual who is judged to be at high risk of self-harm. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realised.
How can women overcome stigma around specific challenges in order to seek therapy?
Women dealing with domestic abuse, sexual assault, eating disorders, and any other number of troubles may feel a stigma around seeking help. It’s important to remember that these issues are not uncommon and there is no shame in getting help for them. Therapy is confidential, and women can talk about their experiences without fear of judgment. Seeking therapy can be a courageous and liberating act, and an important step toward healing and recovery.
