Women's Mental Health

I support women with difficult life events, emotional challenges and life stages/ transitions.

I understand what it is like to feel low, anxious, lost or disconnected and just how overwhelming this can feel when juggling various roles and responsibilities. I will walk alongside you as you explore any challenges that you are facing- nurturing your personal growth and emotional wellbeing and helping you to restore a sense of balance.

Welcome

Hello and Welcome!

I am a BACP registered, person - centred counsellor supporting women through all stages of life. I work with women experiencing difficult life events (past and present), life stages / transitions and emotional challenges. My areas of support include bereavement, low mood, anxiety, low self-esteem, family issues, relationship difficulties, loneliness... and more.

You can read more about the areas that I can help you with here.

I also specialise in perinatal and postnatal mental health, supporting women/birthing parents through pregnancy, early motherhood, and beyond.

Whatever you are facing, I offer a non - judgmental space, where your experiences will be held with compassion and understanding. Together, we will work towards helping you to feel better, to restore a sense of balance and to make meaningful and lasting change.

My counselling approach is supportive, compassionate, and tailored towards your individual needs. I also draw on the healing benefits of nature to support nervous system regulation, shifts in perspective and to restore emotional wellbeing.

You can read more about outdoor therapy/walk and talk here.

I offer in-person counselling, outdoor therapy and online therapy - wherever we meet, I will always aim to create a warm, welcoming, and supportive space in which you can explore your thoughts and feelings openly. Together, we will untangle the complexities of whatever it is that you are going through and find a meaningful path forward.

I offer a FREE initial call and a reduced-cost first session. This gives you the chance to get a feel for how we might work together and to make sure you feel comfortable and supported from the very beginning.

You’re welcome to explore the rest of my website, where you’ll find more information about counselling for women, counselling for mums, outdoor therapy, online therapy, what to expect and a bit more about me - there is also an FAQ page with information on sessions and fees.

If you feel ready to take the next step - or if you have any questions - I would love to hear from you.

Thank you for considering me as part of your therapeutic journey.

Hattie

I understand that motherhood is a time when you may be feeling overwhelmed, uncertain, anxious and isolated. You may be exhausted, lacking in confidence, struggling to cope or experiencing relationship struggles ... or perhaps you simply want a space to reflect on your own family dynamic and the way you were parented.

I am here to support you with any difficulties you may be facing and to grow in confidence on your parenting journey.

I am experienced in supporting mums with all aspects of early motherhood, including pregnancy and the post-natal period.

Maternal Mental Health

In-person & online counselling

I offer face to face sessions in spaces that promote connection to nature - offering a grounding and restorative therapeutic space to support your counselling journey.

We can meet in a cosy woodland hut or a rustic converted barn in the countryside.

Online therapy sessions are also available UK wide.

Outdoor Therapy

I offer walk and talk sessions on Ashdown Forest - working with the natural benefits of walking to improve mood, reduce feelings of stress and anxiety and to help you feel more connected to both yourself and to the world around you.
