Women's Issues Counselling in Newcastle upon Tyne
I understand it can feel hard to be vulnerable and share your story. I’ll work gently at your pace, checking in to make sure it feels right for you. I’m a trained psychotherapeutic counsellor for children and young people, with years of experience supporting women too. I often work with those who feel low, worn out, anxious or unseen—who carry quiet feelings of not being good enough, or not truly mattering. Many I support are neurodivergent or tend to care for others while neglecting their own needs, often feeling burnt out, hopeless or uncertain about the future.

Does life sometimes feel overwhelming? You may find yourself struggling in your relationships, feeling unheard, or questioning whether the path you’re on is truly right for you. At times, it might just feel like something is “off,” even if you can’t quite put your finger on why. These experiences can be unsettling, and it’s natural to feel unsure about where to turn. Counselling offers a space away from the pressures of daily life, a place to pause, reflect, and make sense of what you’re going through. Together, we can explore your experiences and find a way forward that feels right for you.

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.
