Female Counselling in Berkshire, ENG
Reaching out for help can be tough but it’s an important first step to feeling better. You don't have to cope alone, I'm a fully qualified counsellor offering a place to explore, understand and share your difficulties. I work with adult clients who are struggling with various mental and emotional challenges. This includes anxiety, low self-esteem, work stress, relationship and confidence issues. Many clients may not be aware of why they are struggling but often it can be attributed to a trauma which may have taken place either recently or in the past. I specialise in supporting clients understand and move through their symptoms.

Collaborative working is at the heart of CBT and its important for clients to take control and contribute to their recovery. To help clients reach their goals I guide them to their own realisations and encourage them to challenge their bias negative thinking and unhelpful behaviours. Clients often want to be heard and understood but importantly to learn coping skills to make changes to improve their life experiences.

We sometimes experience moments in our lives when we may question ourselves, and therapy provides a way to voice those thoughts in a supported space. With warmth and empathy I strive to establish a strong therapeutic alliance based on trust and mutual respect, aiming to empower you to overcome obstacles, develop healthier coping strategies and cultivate a greater sense of self awareness and fulfilment. Hopefully we can work together to achieve this.

My approach to therapy is friendly, respectful & totally non-judgemental. Primarily I use an Integrative Therapy based on TTM ( Transtheoretical Model of Change) based (between others) on your goals, readiness to change and the fact that ‘no one type of therapy fits all’. Psychoeducation about your symptoms, coping strategies (CBT and Mindfulness') will improve your everyday life and if you feel ready to work on the 'the roots' of the current difficulties- EMDR, Counselling and Attachment Theory would be something to explore. I adjust therapy to my clients and not the other way around.

Female Counsellors
Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, this is not an important factor, as there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or ingrained beliefs about how people of different genders think and behave. Exploring the roots of such preferences and considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender truly matters to them.
Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist, either because they believe that a woman will be able to relate to their specific challenges (for example, sexism in the workplace) or because they imagine feeling more comfortable disclosing sensitive information to a woman. Such beliefs may not turn out to be accurate, however, and adhering too rigidly to a gender preference can at times hinder a client from finding the best therapeutic match.
Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?
Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists—both men and women—may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.
How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?
It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
