Women's Issues
Samira Gholami
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Therapeutic Counsellor
Being a woman can involve navigating complex expectations, responsibilities, and relationships while trying to maintain a strong sense of your own identity. Perhaps you're balancing career ambitions with family responsibilities, struggling to establish healthy boundaries, experiencing relationship difficulties, or feeling pressure to meet everyone else's needs before your own. You may find yourself questioning your worth, feeling emotionally exhausted, or wondering when you'll finally have space to focus on what matters most to you.
As a Registered Therapeutic Counsellor (RTC), I offer compassionate, affordable counselling for women navigating emotional challenges, relationship concerns, self-esteem difficulties, and significant life changes. My experience in community mental health, family support, and psychoeducation has strengthened my understanding of how personal experiences, social expectations, and family relationships can influence women's mental health and well-being.
My approach combines person-centred counselling, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and trauma-informed principles to create a supportive environment where you can explore your experiences openly, without judgment or pressure to meet someone else's expectations.
I recognize that women's experiences are diverse and can be shaped by cultural identity, family traditions, gender-related expectations, relationships, and personal circumstances. Whether you're navigating relationship conflict, struggling with people-pleasing, adjusting to changes in family roles, or working toward greater independence, your individual experiences and values will guide our work together.
My professional development in Gender-Based Analysis Plus (GBA+) has also strengthened my awareness of how gender and intersecting aspects of identity can influence personal experiences, opportunities, and well-being.
Together, we can explore ways to strengthen your confidence, establish healthier boundaries, improve communication, develop emotional resilience, and reconnect with your individual needs, strengths, and aspirations.
You deserve relationships where your voice is valued, choices that reflect your authentic self, and opportunities to prioritize your own well-being without guilt.
I offer affordable counselling in English and Farsi and would welcome the opportunity to support you in building greater self-understanding, emotional balance, and confidence as you navigate life's challenges on your own terms.

Rachel Bates
Registered Psychotherapist, M Phil - Counselling & Psychotherapy; M A Psychology
A woman is usually a daughter, a sister, a friend, a wife, a mother, a daughter-in-law, a grandmother and often finds herself playing a variety of roles, at the same time. She reproduces, is a guardian and a carer and sometimes does not pay sufficient attention to her own needs. Thus a woman through her life span may be affected by multiple issues and if not addressed, experience depression and anxiety.

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.
