Female Counselling in Macclesfield, ENG
Not everyone has the same approach to life's problems such as personal and psychosexual relationships, grief, loss, bereavement, illness and stress, nor to the typical challenges of family relationships. The context of culture, ethnicity, race, gender, class, sexual orientation and spiritual beliefs influence the ways in which we view the world and how the world views us. I work with couples and families, children, teens and individuals, to resolve issues in a way that is sensitive to their culture and context; and together we develop solutions that are congruent with their values. I like to work from a strengths based orientation

People usually contact me around issues of embodiment - meaning they are either overwhelmed by physical, emotional and psychological pain or the opposite - numb and cut-off from life. I have specialist training to work psycho-somatically. I support people working through complex trauma and dissociation. Associated with this are day-to-day issues in relationships arising from adaptations to trauma through life. As clients experience themselves as more connected/embodied their focus often shifts to creative self-expression and how to maintain aliveness in a world that often does not support its expression.

I believe that everyone can benefit from being truly seen and heard with empathy and non-judgement, and that counselling can enable you to explore different perspectives, choices and ways of being. Finding the right counsellor for you can provide a safe way to explore, grow and restore. Counselling works not by ‘fixing’ you or telling you what to do, but by helping you to accept and understand yourself, while supporting you in finding your own truths. It facilitates any growth that you choose to undertake. As a client, you decide how your session will proceed, working at your own pace and in your own way.

Adolescence is a time of exploring the world and figuring out who we are and therefore relationships are fundamental, in order to grow up, into a happy healthy human being. Breakdown in relationships, such as suffering a bereavement, not getting on with someone close to you, going through a big change, or feeling lonely and isolated can lead to feeling depressed. I have seen great results using this time limited intervention and would like to help more young people get back on track and enjoying life.

Hello I am wondering if you are finding life a bit tough right now. Maybe you are feeling anxious and worried about the future. People I work with often feel that life is getting on top of them, they are not living the life they want - they have lost confidence, sometimes feeling afraid, frustrated, lonely - experiencing a range of emotions that feel difficult to understand and work through. I can help you deal with those big and small ups and downs in life. Feelings of panic, anxiety and stress Perhaps a relationship issue is causing you some concern. Together we can find ways to help you deal with these feelings and emotions

Together we can identify your needs, establish some goals and I can help you take a positive step towards the future you wish for yourself.

Female Counsellors
Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, this is not an important factor, as 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 ingrained beliefs about how people of different genders think and behave. Exploring the roots of such preferences and considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender truly matters to them.
Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist, either because they believe that a woman will be able to relate to their specific challenges (for example, sexism in the workplace) or because they imagine feeling more comfortable disclosing sensitive information to a woman. Such beliefs may not turn out to be accurate, however, and adhering too rigidly to a gender preference can at times hinder a client from finding the best therapeutic match.
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—both men and women—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.
