Navigating life can be difficult at times, particularly when faced with significant life events and challenges that throw us off course. While most of us are aware of the importance of looking after our physical health, we often take our mental health for granted, assuming it will look after itself. Coping with everyday stressors over a prolonged period can leave us feeling physically and emotionally exhausted and at risk of burnout. If any of this resonates with you, speaking with a counsellor or Psychotherapist is a good first step in taking care of your physical and mental wellbeing.

We all struggle at different times in our lives with any number of issues or just that feeling of being stuck. We can find ourselves repeating the same patterns and struggling to feel better and those we have in our lives may not or are unable to give the solution or answers we need. It is then we seek professional help. If this is resonating with you and you have decided to reach out and contact me, I will offer to meet with you in person, online or via the telephone, for a free 15/20 minute consultation to discuss further.

It’s normal, at some point, to get stuck, or to struggle facing life's challenges. Sometimes we know exactly what’s wrong but at other times we might just have a nagging sense that something isn’t quite right. Therapy can help by supporting you to explore the roots of your distress, understand more clearly what’s keeping you stuck, and create new ways to think about yourself and your relationship roles and patterns. By uncovering the obstacles holding you back, you can learn to problem-solve, make better choices, practise healthier coping strategies, and turn your goals into realities to find a greater sense of peace and fulfilment.

I help women just like you navigate the emotional storm of separation or divorce, and the unique challenges of co-parenting with an ex.
If you're feeling lost after a separation or divorce, constantly overwhelmed by emotions you can’t quite pin down, I understand. Even though your ex is out of your life, they might still be taking up too much space in your mind—especially if you're navigating the complexities of co-parenting. You’re searching for clarity—why you feel stuck and how to finally move forward. Deep down, you want to feel like you again, free from the emotional weight of sadness, guilt, or anger. You’re ready to rebuild your life, and not just survive—you want to thrive, reclaim your confidence, and wake up excited about your future.

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.
