Women's Issues Counselling in Wallsend
Do you feel like you are disappearing in your own home? If you are constantly walking on eggshells and managing a partner's volatile moods while your own truth is systematically silenced or labelled as the problem, you are not alone. I specialize in helping women recover from the profound identity crisis, severe anxiety, and crushing low self-esteem caused by narcissistic abuse and coercive control. When your reality is rewritten by a partner or family member, your mental health takes a massive hit, often leaving you to face chronic depression.

Many of my clients are struggling with anxiety, trauma, low mood, or emotional overwhelm. Some are processing past abuse or loss, while others feel stuck or disconnected and want to understand themselves better. You may be seeking relief, clarity, or a calmer mind. Whether you have clear goals or just need someone to talk to, I offer a supportive, non-judgemental space where we can work at your pace. I primarily work with adult individuals and couples aged 18 and over. In some cases, I also see young people aged 14 and above. My trainee therapy dog Coco (puppy) may be present during sessions, unless you would prefer otherwise.

You feel exhausted, anxious, and stuck in a cycle of overthinking. Burnout has drained your energy, while self-doubt and perfectionism hold you back from living fully. You long for calm, clarity, and confidence—yet despite your best efforts, stress and worry keep creeping in. What you want is simple: to quiet your racing mind, feel in control of your emotions, and have the energy to show up for your life and relationships with strength, balance, and peace.

Hello,
My ideal client has tried everything but still feels stuck. Therapy, books, positivity—nothing works. The problem isn't in their head. They feel it in their body—heaviness, fatigue, anxiety.
They experience anxiety from nowhere, repeating patterns, living someone else's life, and unexplained physical symptoms. Something was lost along the way.
They want results, not sympathy. Real change, not endless talking. Freedom, not staying stuck.
They need to release what's holding them, feel lighter and clearer, and finally live instead of survive. They're ready for deeper work that addresses the root—not just symptoms.

You might look like you’re coping on the outside—managing work, home, and everything in between—but inside it can feel exhausting, relentless, and hard to switch off. You may find yourself feeling overwhelmed, anxious, low in mood, or disconnected from how you want to be living.
Many people who reach out are used to functioning at a high level, often supporting others and keeping things going, but find there’s little space left for themselves. This can be particularly true when balancing the demands of work, relationships, and day-to-day life, and can begin to feel difficult to sustain over time.

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.
