Women's Issues
Beth Jackson Counselling and Coaching
Counsellor/Therapist, BA (hons), Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling, Diploma in Clinical Supervision
Whether you are struggling with your self identify, anxiety, menopause, relationships or you can't really identify what the key problem is, I can provide a safe and non-judgemental space for you to talk, be heard and begin to unpick what you want to see change. Often just having someone next you you where you don't have to worry about their emotions or responses to what you say can be massively helpful. I'm here to listen and begin that journey with you today.

Natalie Jane - Narcissistic Abuse & Relationship Recovery Counsellor

Many of the women I work with are juggling relationships, work, family and their own wellbeing while carrying the effects of difficult experiences. I offer a safe space to put yourself first for an hour and explore self-worth, boundaries and what you want for your life.

Jayne Batten
Counsellor/Therapist, MSc, CT, MPCC, MBACP
I address women’s issues by creating a supportive space to explore the unique challenges women face across identity, relationships, work, health, and societal expectations. The focus is on helping clients unpack internalized roles, navigate life transitions, and heal from experiences like gender-based violence, inequality, or burnout. Therapy empowers women to reclaim their voice, strengthen boundaries, and cultivate self-worth rooted in their own truth—not in the roles they’ve been told to play.

Kelly McAleer
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I have extensive experience working with women across a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, relationships, identity, self-worth, career and family pressures, and major life transitions. My approach recognizes the ways that gender expectations, systemic sexism, and broader cultural pressures can shape women’s experiences, while making space for each person’s individual relationship with gender and what being a woman means to them.

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.
