Women's Issues Counselling in Surbiton

Julie Sherman
Counsellor, MSc, MBACP
We all have experiences that can be difficult to carry on our own. Sometimes we need space to untangle our thoughts, understand our feelings, or simply be heard without pressure to have everything figured out. Therapy offers a place to do exactly that. Alongside my general counselling practice, I have specialist training in fertility counselling and am registered with both BACP and BICA. I have particular experience supporting people through fertility challenges, assisted conception, pregnancy and parenthood, relationship difficulties, loss, and the many transitions that life can bring.

My name is Jada Wang. I work with women who struggle with self-worth, mother-daughter relationship and recurring relationship patterns. You may feel “not good enough,” overgive in relationships, or feel drawn to emotionally unavailable partners, despite appearing capable on the outside. I also specialise in mother–daughter relationship therapy, working with individuals or mother–daughter pairs. Together, we explore unresolved wounds, attachment patterns, and intergenerational dynamics, supporting you to build a more grounded sense of self and healthier relationships.

Counsellor, MBACP
I’m a strong believer that, in the words of Nelson Mandela “there is no passion to be found playing small – in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living” – yet sometimes life is really quite tough and we find ourselves struggling and this ideal seems far from our reality. You may find yourself feeling emotionally overwhelmed, anxious or lonely. Or, you may have been struggling for some time and haven’t found the motivation to address it but now that struggle may be feeling a little bigger.

I don't believe that there is one method of psychotherapy that suits everyone. I believe in adapting my way of working for each client I meet. You may feel that you want to work short-term on a specific aspect of your life. You may feel that you want to take time to look back on your early life experiences or you may not know where to start or where you are going. Whatever your situation is, I will do my best to see the world as you do and, where possible, offer you an alternative perspective. I believe the same is true for children and using sand tray and art materials I allow children to process their emotions through play.

Seeking support can be one of the hardest yet bravest things you can do. I'm Jenny and my role is to make the process as easy as possible for you, by offering a warm and supportive environment from which you can explore the challenges that you are facing, the symptoms that you are struggling with, and the causes of these issues. Anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, depression, habits or fears do not define you; they can be temporary problems that you can learn to solve, with the right support in place. My individualised and collaborative approach to therapy allows you to find a way forward as quickly as possible.

Your well-being is the heart of a life lived fully. We often think of health as physical, but mental health is just as vital. Therapy is a gentle process of turning toward yourself with curiosity instead of judgement. It’s about building the self-awareness you need to create lasting change. You deserve a space where you don't have to carry that weight alone. Whether you’ve been in therapy before or are taking a brave first step today, I know how daunting it feels to find the "right" person. My goal is to truly listen to the nuances of your life and tailor our sessions to meet you exactly where you are.

My approach is shaped by the idea that we can begin from where we are, without needing to be perfect or have everything figured out. Often the things we struggle with make sense in the context of our lives, even if they no longer feel helpful now. I work in a relational way, taking time to understand what’s been happening for you rather than trying to move too quickly towards change.

Life can sometimes feel overwhelming, confusing, or lonely - even when things appear fine on the surface. If you’re experiencing stress, anxiety, low mood, relationship difficulties or feeling stuck, therapy can help you to slow down and make sense of what you’re going through. I offer a safe and non-judgmental space where you can explore the parts of yourself that may feel painful, confusing, or difficult to put into words. Being able to talk openly and feel truly heard can often be the first step towards meaningful change. I will be alongside you, offering support and understanding at a pace that feels right for you.

My first training in therapy was ‘Person Centred’. This therapy places emphasis on providing a safe, empathic, non-judgemental space to discuss whatever is troubling you. I have come to specialise in Trauma and Complex PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder). EMDR is clinically proven to heal all kinds of traumatic experiences. More recently, I have begun to incorporate Internal Family Systems (IFS) theory into my practice as it helps to identify different parts of ourselves that can sometimes be in conflict.

I welcome people with a wide range of issues and recognise that most people do not bring issues that can be easily defined as a single category. You may have recently experienced a crisis in your life, such as bereavement, loss of a relationship, trauma or illness. Or perhaps you are less clear about why you are finding it hard to cope, you might be feeling anxious, stressed or experiencing unpredictable emotional swings but not be sure about why this is happening. Or maybe you are finding the process of ageing difficult and unsettling.

My approach to therapy is one where you can expect honesty, compassion, and real conversations that matter. I'll bring warmth, authenticity and the occasional laugh - because sometimes humour really is the best therapy. We work together as a team. I’ll support you on your journey until you get where you need to be. I’m a pluralistic counsellor which means I can draw from various therapeutic approaches (CBT, Person Centred & Pyschodynamic) to create a tailored experience that’s as unique as you are.
