Women's Issues Counselling in Liverpool
If you’re looking for therapy at home because leaving the house is difficult, you may be dealing with anxiety, panic, agoraphobia, intrusive thoughts, OCD, trauma or phobias. These can make daily life feel restricted and exhausting. You might want clearer days and someone with solid mental‑health experience who understands how intense this can be, without jargon or pressure. Therapy needs to be practical, accessible and based on what you can manage right now.

I work with mid life women who for a whole variety of reasons known or unknown to them have become stuck and lost and are looking for a space to unpick what is going on for them. Women who are feeling like they no longer fit or don't want to fit into the roles they find themselves in... Is this it for me now? Is a common question I hear in the room. Women who have lost their joy. Women who are grieving. Grieving the loss of relationships, divorce, children leaving, a diagnosis, a life they thought they would have, or a loved one would have had.

Perhaps something has shifted in your thoughts/feelings/behaviour that’s uncomfortable, or maybe you’ve decided to explore a long-standing issue. I help my clients (individuals and couples) achieve their therapeutic goals either by discussing their current or past issues through counselling/psychotherapy or some clients also opt to have hypnotherapy with me too (you can read about that on my website). I offer empathy, confidentiality, safety and opportunity to explore their feelings in a therapeutic relationship. I'm not here to pass judgement or advise but instead I'm here to help you navigate the highs and lows.

Hello, I’m Carol. Feeling “stuck”, "lost", anxious or afraid and finding it hard to cope with daily life can be something we may all experience in our lives from time to time.

As a psychodynamic therapist, I will help you find your way again by unravelling hidden or unconscious aspects of you.

For women who did everything "right" and still feel exhausted, unseen, and alone. Let's find our way back to you!
Maybe you did the diet, the degree, the job, the wedding, the house — everything that was supposed to add up to happiness — and somewhere in it, you went missing.
Maybe you're single, doing everything "right," but not being chosen or keep hearing your standards are too high. Either way, you're exhausted, disappointed and you don't have anyone to say that out loud to.
Perhaps you gave everything to your partner or marriage for it to end in separation or divorce and now you feel totally lost and full of grief.

Talking about sex is hard, and it's often hardest with the people closest to us. If you're here, something has probably felt difficult for a while: desire that's faded or never matched your partner's, sex that hurts or has stopped altogether, erections that won't cooperate, or an intimate life that's drifted somewhere neither of you chose. All of it is more common than you'd think, and all of it can change.

Hi! I’m Gillian.
The focus of my work is to create an environment that feels safe for you to explore whatever has brought you to counselling. I don’t believe anyone will know you better than you know yourself, and my role as your counsellor is to walk beside you on your personal journey. Together, we can build a space for you to develop new coping skills, learn more about yourself and speak openly about what you have experienced.

Welcome. With a background in both Psychology & Psychotherapy I combine this training with lived experience to offer you empathy & validation, as well as support for you to change and grow. I integrate psychological, psychodynamic, DBT, CBT, sleep & somatic approaches to tailor therapy to your needs. When we get things stabilised together, felt-safety established in your brain-body system, and more constructive coping strategies brought in, people who work with me tend to have increased self-awareness, self-esteem and self-care tools, as well as less self-criticism and improved psychological, physical & social health & wellbeing.

The decision to attend counselling can be difficult and sometimes overwhelming. It is the quality of the 'therapeutic relationship' that is key to progress, so that you feel supported and comfortable to talk about what matters to you. I believe passionately in the counselling process, and for me the promotion of positive mental health and well-being is at the core of our work together.

Hi! I’m Amy. I’m a Chartered Clinical Psychologist. I was very lucky to really enjoy going to university to study psychology. I quickly knew it was the area I wanted to work in and so began my journey in training to be one, completing masters and doctorate degrees along the way!

I have also worked with include both child and adult eating disorders, OCD, psychosis, stroke rehabilitation and people who have offended who are staying in hospital.

Reflect and Rise is the counselling practice of qualified psychotherapist Sasha Jane Spicer (MBacp, MSc). I specialise in Integrative Therapy. This approach blends different counselling methods - such as Person-Centred Therapy, CBT, Psychodynamic Therapy, and Mindfulness-Based Therapy - rather than relying on a single technique. Integrative therapy draws on knowledge and experience from a range of approaches to find what works best for you. We’ll explore your current challenges in a way that suits your individual needs. I aim to support you in the ways that matter most to you. I offer a free initial 15 minute introduction.
