Women's Issues
Birgit Schreiber Dr
Psychologist, PhD and MA in Psychology
Being a woman myself, helps to see the many challenges women often live with, often embedded into patriarchal structures, be that in relationships, with our health, at work and advancing in our careers or in our families. I am deeply aware of structural and patriarchal systems that create power asymmetries.

Women's issues can impact mental health in various ways. These cover a wide range of issues: including but not limited to gender, sexuality, social media, misogyny, or race, as well as those relating to specific aspects of health, and life-course issues like menopause, caring for aging parents, coping with difficult children, domestic abuse, and relationship problems. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space for you to air your concerns and offer useful practical tools, strategies, and coping skills.

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.

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.
