Jill Deacon
Counsellor/Therapist, BSc and FdSc Person Centred Counselling. MBACP
Gender does play a role with our mental health and women are more likely to experience psychological distress than men, with socio-cultural, and biological issues affecting us. Women are more likely to experience abuse, (sexual, physical, emotional, psychological etc) rape, attemtped rape and other traumatising events and stop us engaging fully in life. We also have to mange self image, body image, child bearing and raising, menstruation, menopause, career loss and glass ceiling and many many other expectations we have to manage.
Speaking with a trained counsellor gives you the opportunity to trust in a warm, open, non judgemental , safe space to explore any issues you may wish to bring.

Mandy Randall-Gavin MBACP, UKATA
Counsellor/Therapist, BA Hons, Dip TA Prac: UKATA
As a woman, 'women's issues' refers to any concern that may impact your mental health. These concerns might be related to gender stereotyping or assumptions and concerns related to your health, but they are also likely to include other challenges faced by you that have nothing to do with gender. In our work together, I make no assumptions based solely on gender, as a person's identity is multifaceted and no single aspect defines a person entirely. You may experience certain biological, environmental, and psycho-social challenges related to gender, and these concerns can have a significant impact on your mental health and well-being. I will work alongside you to mine your thinking and behaviour to help address these issues.

Women's Issues
Julie Cochrane - Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT) Therapist
Hypnotherapist, Clinical Hypnotherapist, RTT-T, Rewind Therapy Practitioner, Integration Coaching
Many of the women I work with are high-achieving, deeply self-aware and quietly exhausted. They are the ones holding things together at work, at home and for everyone around them. Underneath the competence is often imposter syndrome, people-pleasing, perfectionism, a hard inner critic or a sense of not being allowed to take up space. These are not personality traits. They are subconscious patterns, usually formed early, often reinforced by the cultural messaging women absorb about who they are supposed to be. RTT works directly at that level. We find the original moment a belief was formed and update the meaning attached to it. The work is online via Zoom and confidential. Many clients describe finally feeling like themselves within the first few sessions.

Reproductive and hormonal concerns (pregnancy, postpartum, miscarriage, infertility, menopause)
Body image and eating concerns
Sexual health and intimacy
Gender-based trauma (sexual assault, domestic violence, harassment)
Work-life balance and the "mental load"
Perfectionism and people-pleasing patterns

Aging as a woman in a youth-focused culture
These issues often intersect and compound, creating complex emotional landscapes that benefit from therapeutic support.
How Therapy Helps
Validating Your Experience
One of the most powerful aspects of therapy is having your experiences validated. So many women have been told they're "too sensitive," "overreacting," or that their struggles aren't legitimate. A good therapist—especially one who specializes in women's issues—understands the unique challenges you face and affirms that your feelings are real and reasonable.
Breaking Free from People-Pleasing
Many women are socialized from childhood to prioritize others' needs over their own, to be agreeable, and to avoid conflict. Therapy helps you recognize these patterns, understand where they come from, and learn to set healthy boundaries without guilt. You can explore what you actually want, rather than what you think you should want.
Processing Gender-Based Trauma
Whether it's sexual assault, domestic violence, workplace harassment, or more subtle forms of discrimination and microaggressions, gender-based trauma leaves deep wounds. Therapies like EMDR and trauma-focused CBT can help process these experiences, reduce symptoms like hypervigilance and flashbacks, and help you reclaim your sense of safety and power.
Navigating Hormonal and Life Transitions
From puberty to pregnancy to perimenopause and beyond, hormonal changes can significantly impact mood, anxiety, and sense of self. Therapy provides support during these transitions, helping you understand what's happening in your body, manage symptoms, and adjust to the changes without losing yourself in the process.
Healing Body Image and Eating Concerns
Women face relentless pressure about appearance, weight, and aging. Therapy can help you develop a healthier relationship with your body, challenge unrealistic beauty standards, address disordered eating patterns, and find self-worth that isn't tied to how you look.
Addressing the Mental Load
Even in 2025, women often carry the invisible burden of managing household tasks, emotional labor, and family scheduling. Therapy helps you recognize this imbalance, communicate your needs, and redistribute responsibilities without feeling guilty for not "doing it all."
Exploring Identity Beyond Traditional Roles
Whether you're a mother questioning your identity beyond motherhood, a woman choosing not to have children, someone navigating career ambitions alongside family expectations, or exploring what it means to age as a woman—therapy offers space to define yourself on your own terms.
Strengthening Your Voice
Many women struggle to advocate for themselves, especially in medical settings, at work, or in relationships. Therapy helps you find and strengthen your voice, practice assertiveness, and learn to communicate your needs confidently.
Processing Reproductive Experiences
Pregnancy loss, infertility, difficult births, abortion decisions, and menopause can all bring complex grief, trauma, and identity shifts. Therapy provides compassionate support for processing these deeply personal experiences without judgment.
Building Authentic Self-Worth
When society constantly sends messages about what women should be, do, or look like, it's easy to lose touch with your authentic self. Therapy helps you peel back those external expectations and reconnect with your inherent worth—not based on productivity, appearance, or caregiving, but simply because you exist.

Women's Issues
Saffron Marriner
Counsellor/Therapist, MBACP (Accred)
women's issues encompass a wide range of challenges that affect our physical, emotional and psychological well-being. These issues may arise from societal expectations, gender roles, discrimination, trauma and personal experiences. Gender based violence includes physical, emotional and sexual abuse. This can occur in various settings, such as domestic relationships, workplaces and public spaces. The impact of GBV on women's mental health can lead to anxiety, depression and PTSD. Body image and self-esteem due to societal standards of beauty often place immense pressure on women to conform to unrealistic body ideals. This can result in body image issues, eating disorders and low self-esteem. Reproductive health issues such as menstrual health, pregnancy, childbirth and menopause are significant aspects of our overall wellbeing. Conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) endometriosis and infertility can have a substantial emotional and psychological impact. Women often face challenges in balancing our professional and personal lives. We may experience stress related to career advancements, workplace discrimination and the expectations of caregiving roles at home. The struggle to achieve work-life balance can lead to burnout and mental health concerns. Cultural norms and societal expectations can influence women's life choices, including marriage, motherhood and career paths. These pressures can create conflicts between personal desires and societal demands, leading to stress and identity crises. Combining humanistic and trauma-informed approaches provides a comprehensive framework for addressing women's issues in counselling. This integration involves conducting a thorough assessment, working collaboratively with my clients to set realistic and meaningful goals. Empowering you to take an active role in your healing journey and prioritise your needs and preferences, tailoring interventions to my client's unique experiences and strengths , use techniques to address specific issues and promote personal growth.

Ulrike Nau-Debor
Psychologist, CPsychol, AFBPsS, HCPC registered
I am passionate about supporting women in developing their inner guidance system, rather than relying on our patriarchal culture to define who we are and what we should do. I understand how much our cultural programming has created psychological and practical problems for us, and it is essential to find ways to reject what is hurting us. This goes beyond misogyny to include other social constructs, such as race. Our social structures impact us in many practical ways and influence what we perceive as possible for ourselves.
In my experience, freeing ourselves from internalized misogyny is crucial. Can we own our 'no,' our needs, and our desires with clarity? Can we proudly embody being female and live it from a place of strength and freedom, rather than trying to fulfill societal standards?

Marianna Trezza -The Growing mindset
Counsellor/Therapist, MA (Hons), Adv Dip. Counsel. & Psychoth.,Dip. Hypnoth., X-Cultural Adaptation Coun. Reg. BACP 572613
Many women spend years adapting to expectations, responsibilities and roles that slowly take them further away from themselves.
Over time, this can lead to emotional exhaustion, chronic stress, anxiety, people pleasing, loss of identity or the feeling of constantly having to hold everything together for everyone else.
For women living abroad, these pressures are often intensified by the emotional complexity of living between cultures, languages and different versions of oneself.
Many of the women I support are highly empathic, capable and caring toward others, while internally feeling disconnected from their own needs, rhythm, voice or sense of belonging.
My work offers a warm, reflective and holistic space to explore emotional wellbeing, nervous system regulation, identity, self-worth, belonging and authenticity.
I integrate psychotherapy, hypnotherapy, EFT, embodiment, lifestyle medicine, reflective dialogue and nature-based approaches to support women in reconnecting with themselves in a gentler, more grounded and sustainable way.
