People often come to me for therapy because they feel like there's something in their life they can't fully get to the bottom of. Maybe it's your anxiety that won't go, your feeling of depression that seems cyclical, not quite feeling like you know who you are, or problems which seem to continually appear in your relationships. Whatever it is that's brought you to search for a therapist, what I can tell you is that I will work with you and support you to unpick what's actually underneath your current pain and discomfort. By better understanding yourself and your history, you can start to see recurring patterns and make changes.

Life can feel overwhelming when you’re navigating challenges like trauma, relationship difficulties, or major life transitions. You may feel stuck, disconnected, or burdened by patterns and emotions that seem impossible to shift.

My role is to provide a safe, compassionate space where you can explore your experiences, process your emotions, and begin to heal.

Maybe you feel alone, lost, overwhelmed or disconnected. Maybe you want to talk about something specific: addictions, anxiety and depression, bereavements, abuse, trauma, relationship breakdown. Or, maybe you don’t know how you feel, but you just don't feel right. Whatever it is, we will explore together at your pace, either in my peaceful therapy room or online. I can help you to spot patterns of behaviour and to gain more self-awareness. This creates a greater sense of freedom and choice in your life, which can build stronger personal relationships, more self-compassion and lead to positive change.

Life is precious. You want to seize it, shape it, squeeze the joy out of it. You want to feel grounded, safe, and free—to live a life and have relationships, work, and creative pursuits where your heart expands and your soul feels light. But something keeps getting in the way. You’re functioning, maybe even thriving on the outside, but inside you feel stuck. Self-doubt, shame, anxiety, and overwhelm creep in.

There may be events which have occurred or are anticipated to occur which leave us feeling anxious, ill, overwhelmed, stressed, frightened, unsure, on the edge of burn out or like our very foundation has been shaken, and we need some help to process it all. Or we may not even know why we are feeling the way we do. Sometimes things can feel unmentionable to family and friends or events have occurred which no-one wants to talk about anymore or we need the skill, support and confidentiality of somebody who will understand what we are struggling with and who is equipped to help us. That’s when therapy can be really valuable.

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.
