Why Counselling for Women?

Women often tell us they feel alone, frightened, or unsafe. Some are living with anxiety or depression, while others have experienced abuse or violence in the past. You may feel unequal or unheard as a woman — at home, in your community, or at work. Whatever your experience, we are here to listen and help you find a sense of safety, strength, and hope again.

Whatever brings you to The Maya Centre, we can offer you a safe women-only space to talk in confidence about your life and your relationships. Our qualified and experienced female counsellors are trained to listen to you carefully, to help you understand what has happened to you and to find ways of being in the world that make you feel more confident and fulfilled as a woman. Our intracultural team speak 13 different languages, meaning you may be able to access therapy in your own language.

We’re also proud to be accredited by the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy), which ensures our counselling services meet trusted professional standards.
