Women's Issues
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.

Dr. Stéphanie Gamache, PhD

Women’s issues often involve navigating identity, desire, relational patterns, power, and embodiment across life stages. My work integrates psychoanalytic exploration and somatic awareness to support women in developing a deeper relationship with themselves and their emotional life.

Ruth Mark-Roland Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Post Grad Diploma in Psychotherapy, Foundation and Diploma in Group Analysis
I offer support for women’s issues, including challenges related to identity, self-worth, relationships, life transitions, and the emotional impact of gendered experiences. This can include difficulties such as low self-esteem, people-pleasing, perfectionism, anxiety, burnout, relationship patterns, fertility concerns, pregnancy, postnatal adjustment, and the emotional impact of trauma or past relational experiences.
My approach is grounded in psychoanalytic and relational psychotherapy, providing a safe, reflective, and non-judgemental space to explore both current difficulties and the deeper emotional and relational patterns that may shape them. Together, we may consider how early attachment experiences, family dynamics, and internalised beliefs about gender, worth, and identity influence how you relate to yourself and others.
I work in a trauma-informed way, recognising the impact of relational trauma, emotional neglect, and societal expectations that can contribute to ongoing stress, disconnection, or self-criticism. Therapy offers space to explore these experiences at your own pace, supporting greater understanding and self-compassion.
I also integrate somatic awareness to help you reconnect with the body, particularly where stress, trauma, or anxiety may be held physically. Psychoeducation may be used to support insight into emotional and relational processes, and where appropriate, I may incorporate EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques / tapping) to support emotional regulation and processing.
Therapy is collaborative and paced according to your needs, supporting you to develop a stronger sense of self, healthier boundaries, and more fulfilling and authentic ways of relating to yourself and others.

Women's Issues
Jimi Katsis
Registered Psychotherapist, MA psych, Dip SW
"Women's issues" is a broad term, but what I often see are patterns that get socially reinforced in women: the pressure to be everything to everyone, the difficulty saying no, the guilt when you prioritize yourself, the exhaustion of managing everyone else's emotions while neglecting your own.
Maybe it's the perfectionism that's driving you into the ground. The relationship patterns where you keep choosing partners who need fixing. The people-pleasing that means everyone gets your best self except you. The sense that your worth comes from what you do for others, not from who you are.
Or maybe it's more specific: processing past abuse, navigating difficult family dynamics, the impact of motherhood on your identity, career struggles in male-dominated fields, or simply feeling like you've lost yourself somewhere along the way.
Whatever brings you in, we work to understand the patterns underneath. Not just "women are socialized this way" as an explanation, but what specifically happened in your life that taught you these particular patterns. Then we can start changing them.
You don't have to keep carrying everyone else while ignoring yourself. That's not strength—it's survival. And you deserve better than survival.

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.

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.

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?

Liz Frings
Counsellor/Therapist, PG Diploma Person-Centred Psychotherapy. EMDR Accredited
Women's issues in therapy can encompass a wide range of experiences, including:
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
Navigating patriarchal expectations and societal pressures
Identity and self-worth beyond traditional roles
Relationship dynamics and boundary-setting
Motherhood challenges (or choosing not to be a mother)
Career discrimination and the glass ceiling
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.

Registered Psychotherapist, PACFA certified Gestalt therapist, Counsellor, Life Coach

I support women experiencing challenges such as shame, low self-esteem, body issues, insecurity, inadequacy, anger, grief as well as peri-menopausal/menopausal symptoms.
Together we explore what it means to be a woman in a patriarchal society and begin to undo conditioning and false beliefs that we have inherited that create and exacerbate these conditions. This is a rebirth and reclamation of your authentic truth and your personal power.

Julia Libertad
Counsellor/Therapist, Psicopedagogía- Sex Education.
From a gender and rights-based perspective, I support women exploring sexuality and desire beyond narrow or shame-based scripts, body image, reproductive and life-stage transitions, relationship and family dynamics, and the particular pressures of caregiving and codependency patterns that often fall disproportionately on women. I also bring specific attention to women with disabilities, whose sexuality and autonomy are too often overlooked or infantilized. My approach is never about fixing women to fit a mold, but about expanding what's possible for each person on her own terms.

Samantha Tomer, LLC
Licensed Professional Counsellor, M.Ed., LPC, NCC
Women often carry the weight of many roles — partner, professional, caregiver, daughter, friend — while trying to hold themselves together through it all. This pressure can feel exhausting and lonely, especially during times of transition or change. In therapy, I provide a confidential, supportive space to pause, reflect, and reconnect with yourself. Together, we’ll explore your values, boundaries, and goals so you can step into your life with more clarity, balance, and confidence.

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.
