Wellbeing for Women

when you feel at a loss

changing patterns

You may be operating within an out-dated pattern that you are no longer comfortable with or that no longer serves you. This could be in relation to a partner, your kids or extended family. You may wonder why you continue to keep up your side of the pattern and want help to break out of it. You may feel trapped.  If you have kids, they can be challenging, whether small, teenagers or having left home.  How to keep things good and still alive and active with your partner is an ongoing balancing act. Lack of a partner is another potentially troublesome issue in terms of feeling of self-worth and attractiveness. Somewhere deep within us is a feeling that a part of the whole purpose was to get married, white wedding and all of that. What's gone wrong? How to reevaluate what's important and make the most of what's good and develop a new strategy, new goals, this is an exciting project and one that I can help with.
Body image is important - getting it right in terms of eating, weight and exercise helps to keep us sane. Finding balance. Do you need help in managing what you are doing? Are you drinking too much? Eating too much? Exercising too much or too little? Addicted to social media? I can help you to develop a plan to get on top and feel more alive.
The thing to know is that you have the freedom to change your pattern.  I can help you with this transformational process.

a room of one's own

Metaphorically speaking I mean a place inside yourself that is your own. A lot can be gained from being at peace with yourself first and foremost. key to this is liking and respecting yourself. Next is being at peace with those that you are interacting with. Many well intentioned women are thrown by communications with past partners, extended family or their own kids, feeling in the end like they are not in control but merely being pushed about emotionally or affected much more than they would like to be by communications and given situations. I can help with new perspectives on relationships.
If you are in a place at the moment where you are struggling to be the person that you want to be, it's time to do something about it. If you have identified this, it's a process that is already beginning. Finding balance and inner peace within yourself is an ongoing balancing act and you can gain a lot from standing outside of it all, and looking on with the goal of developing a new stance and a new way of being. This takes time and determination. Change is gradual and starts with the mind.
the past
If you know that you have stuff from the past to deal with, then this is crucial to address. It's amazing how releasing it is to address past trauma, shocks, or events. Whether it's family dynamics, abuse, miscarriage, termination, relationship endings, shock, domestics, trauma is something that I can help to work out.

women's stuff

things sexual
Do you need to brighten up your sex life? Have things become dead? Are you worried? Are there underlying issues, resentments at play? If you want to work it through, I am a therapist that can speak frankly and easily about such things without embarrassment. Please come and chat. LGBTQ clients are welcomed.
menopause
Does menopause have to change everything? No, not at all. Dealing with the change psychologically and locating your power are areas of interest for me. If you not feeling happy about it and holding onto how you used to be, it's not that useful. I can help you to embrace the changes that are happening to you. Our values change and evolve through out lives so it could be the moment to work through your values with a therapist. Developing a set of new goals can really help you in this process. 
orgasm
Are you wanting to discuss difficulties with orgasming? Where the psychological and emotional are involved, I can help you. There are many different possibilities but certainly past trauma, limiting self-belief and the dynamics in a relationship  can be major contributors.
