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.

Women's Issues
Dr. L. Pittman
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I have consistently and actively worked to help women identify issues (typically along the lines of aging and perceived societal expectations) that impact the values and beliefs that are central to who they are as people. I subsequently collaborate with them to help them use their strengths to enhance those core values and beliefs, and to manage any negative self concepts associated with their sense of self, with a goal of working towards growth and an enhanced sense of self.

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.

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.

Irene Valis
Registered Psychotherapist, PACFA certified Gestalt therapist, Counsellor, Life Coach
I dedicate my practice to serving fellow women in navigating life, relationships and the world at large in these modern times.
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.
