The support group for women who get it. This is a space for those diagnosed with, suspect they have, or are undergoing investigations for conditions such as endometriosis, fibroids, PCOS and PMDD.

Groups take place both online so everyone across the country can join, and in person in the Bristol area

Trauma-informed yoga offers a gentle, supportive space prioritising emotional/physical safety. Unlike traditional yoga, it emphasises choice, agency, and body awareness rather than achieving movements. There is no “right/wrong” way—clients are encouraged to listen to their bodies and honour personal boundaries. No prior yoga experience is required, and there will be no physical touch or adjustments. Wear whatever feels comfortable. Sessions run in six-week blocks within a closed group of no more than eight clients, ensuring an intimate, supportive environment. This practice supports nervous system regulation, fosters reconnection, and nurtures safety and empowerment for personal healing.

Women's Issues Support Groups
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.
