Sometimes life can feel overwhelming. We feel exhausted, stressed, unable to switch off, unsure of our direction, our identity, or there’s something just not quite right. We seem to find time for others, but there’s no time for ourselves or we’re unsure where to turn. Does this sound familiar? This is where I can help. Hi, I'm Gill and I am a Counsellor in the Frodsham area. I can offer you acceptance and a safe, supportive confidential space; where together at a pace guided by you, we can start to make sense of your thoughts, feelings and emotions and get to the bottom of what's weighing you down. Helping you rediscover you.

You may look like you're coping on the outside, but inside you feel exhausted. Constantly overthinking, worrying what people think, struggling to say no, or feeling like you're never good enough despite how hard you try. Many people I work with have spent years blaming themselves, not realising these struggles often stem from deeper beliefs about self-worth shaped by past experiences and relationships. As a Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist and published author of Awaken Your Worth: A CBT Workbook for People Pleasing, Perfectionism, Low Self-Worth and Anxiety, I help people uncover the root cause and create lasting change.

Do you feel trapped in uncertainty, overwhelmed with sadness, emotions or physical pain? Is anxiety holding you back and getting in the way of living well? Do you find it hard to express your own needs. Maybe not wanting to feel a burden, so often keep your worries to yourself. Or overly focussed on others needs, at the detriment of your self-care. Do you find yourself behaving in ways that are unlike a person you want to be, maybe snappy at loved ones or colleagues and critical of yourself? Together, we can create a safe space, to explore helpful ways to move forward, build resilience and live better.

Do you want to understand why you are the way you are — and why you feel the ways you do? Many of the people I work with have spent years feeling like they were doing life slightly wrong. Most are neurodivergent adults exhausted by having to explain themselves. Some are families trying to navigate systems that don't listen. Some just know that something hasn't fitted — without yet having a name for it. What they share is a mind that works differently, and a need for someone who starts from curiosity rather than correction.

I work with children and adults! When working with children, I like to involve the parents where possible. When working with adults, motivation is always effective in making change. I enjoy thinking with clients about realistic and long lasting goals, and I spend time working on a formulation to understand which patterns may be helping or hindering those I support.

Hello lovely person on the search. It can be a daunting step, asking for help, finding a person you feel you can trust... whether this is your first brush with therapy or you have had therapy before and are now looking for a different approach or simply the next step... I welcome you both. You might be wondering why, oh why, things don't change despite your best intentions, why you still feel misunderstood. Maybe there is grief lingering, depression holding you back, relationships just not working out. Developmental trauma and Complex CPTD may be running the show for you... and that's tricky.

I work with people from all walks of life. Anyone who has spent time feeling unseen, unheard, or overwhelmed— anxiety or low mood, navigating family tensions, work pressures, or wondering if a late ADHD diagnosis might finally make sense of years of masking and exhaustion. If you want to feel understood, calmer, & more connected to who you really are beneath the coping and holding‑it‑all‑together. You’re longing for a space where you don’t have to perform or pretend, where your feelings are taken seriously, and where you can talk freely without judgement. Your goal isn’t perfection—it’s relief, clarity, and the chance to feel heard

Are you struggling with intimacy, sexual confidence, or feeling disconnected from your partner or your own body? Difficulties with sex and relationships are incredibly common, but many people feel too ashamed or anxious to talk about them. This can be from a combination of how sex was talked about in your household, your sex education, early sexual experiences and unpleasant sexual experiences. Therapy offers a safe and supportive space to explore what’s going on and begin to move forward.

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.
