Online Counselling for Women in the UK | Anxiety & Relationships

Counselling with me

Counselling offers a space that many people don’t have elsewhere.

A place where you don’t need to hold everything together.
Where you don’t need to explain yourself perfectly.
Where you don’t need to decide in advance what the problem is.

Many of the women who come to counselling with me are used to managing. They think things through carefully, anticipate other people’s needs, and keep going even when they feel exhausted inside. Their mind is rarely quiet. There’s often a sense of pressure, responsibility, or self-doubt running in the background.

Counselling creates room to slow all of that down.

I offer attachment-based online counselling to women aged 18+ across the UK, working at a pace that supports reflection rather than pressure.

An attachment-based focus

I work in an attachment-based, integrative way, paying attention to patterns in relationships, emotions, and how you respond under pressure.

Rather than trying to get rid of anxiety, self-criticism, or emotional reactions, we become curious about them. We explore where these responses may have come from and what they’ve helped you manage in the past. These responses often made sense earlier in life, even if they now feel exhausting or limiting.

Many ways of coping are learned early on, in response to what was needed at the time.

Counselling offers a space to understand these patterns without judgement, and to begin responding to yourself with more awareness and choice.

You might recognise this

People come to counselling for many different reasons. Often it’s not one clear issue, but a build-up over time.

You might notice that:

your mind goes over conversations again and again
you feel anxious or unsettled without knowing why
you’re hard on yourself, even when others see you as capable
relationships feel emotionally demanding or draining
you struggle to ask for support, even when you need it
you feel stuck, disconnected, or not quite yourself

For some women, these feelings are connected to particular life stages or experiences — such as menopause, fertility difficulties, pregnancy loss, becoming a parent, or the shifting identity that comes with caring for others.

For others, there’s no obvious event at all. Either way, these experiences can quietly unsettle how you feel about yourself, your relationships, and your sense of stability.

You don’t need a diagnosis, a clear story, or a crisis to come to counselling.

Sometimes it’s enough to know that something isn’t working as it used to.

What sessions are like

I work in a way that allows things to unfold naturally, without pressure to rush or arrive at answers too quickly.

There’s space to think out loud, sit with uncertainty, and explore what’s happening beneath the surface.

I won’t tell you what to do, but I won’t sit back in silence either. I’m actively engaged and will offer reflections, questions, and gentle challenges where it feels helpful.

Some weeks, the focus might be on what’s happening right now. Other weeks, something older may come into view. We pay attention to what’s happening in the room, as well as how past experiences may still be shaping the present.

Over time, many people notice they feel less driven by constant inner pressure, more able to pause, and less harsh towards themselves.

Counselling with me is open-ended. There’s no set number of sessions and no block you need to commit to. Some people come for a shorter period to work through something specific. Others stay longer, using therapy as a space for deeper reflection and ongoing support. We’ll regularly check in about how the work feels and what you’re wanting from it.
