Specialist Therapy for Women in South Manchester, Cheshire & Stockport

Women’s mental health is shaped by unique social, emotional, and biological factors, from early conditioning and trauma to caregiving roles, relationships, and life transitions. Many women spend years coping, masking, or putting themselves last before seeking support.
Our specialist service offers a safe, compassionate space for women across South Manchester, Cheshire and Stockport to explore what’s beneath the surface and make meaningful, lasting change using proven therapeutic approaches.

Areas of Therapy for Women

We cover all the following areas for women’s health and more.

Anxiety Therapy for Women

Anxiety in women often presents as constant overthinking, people-pleasing, perfectionism, guilt, or chronic overwhelm. CBT helps you identify and change the thought and behaviour patterns that maintain anxiety, while building practical coping tools that restore calm, confidence, and emotional balance.

Trauma Therapy & EMDR

Many women in South Manchester, Cheshire and Stockport seek therapy for trauma that may not have been recognised or supported at the time. EMDR is a powerful, NICE-recommended therapy that helps the brain reprocess traumatic memories, reducing emotional distress, flashbacks, and heightened anxiety.

Birth Trauma Therapy

Birth trauma can affect women long after pregnancy and birth, often in silence. Whether your experience involved fear, loss of control, emergency interventions, or feeling unheard, trauma-informed CBT and EMDR can help you process what happened and move forward without reliving the trauma.

ADHD Therapy for Women

ADHD in women is frequently underdiagnosed and misunderstood, leading to years of self-criticism and burnout. Therapy provides a supportive space to understand how ADHD impacts emotions, self-esteem, work, and relationships and to develop strategies that work with your brain, not against it.

Identity & Self-Esteem Therapy

Many women struggle with identity, confidence, and self-worth, especially during life transitions or after trauma. CBT supports you in challenging deeply held beliefs, strengthening boundaries, and developing a more compassionate relationship with yourself.

Relationship Stress & Emotional Burnout

Women often carry the emotional labour in relationships. Therapy can help you explore attachment patterns, communication difficulties, and boundaries — supporting healthier relationships and reducing patterns of over-giving or emotional exhaustion.
