Claire de la Varre
Therapist, PhD, HGDipP
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.

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.

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.

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.
