In the quiet of my therapy room, I often notice an imbalance: for every ten women who find their way to this space, only one man steps through the door. More broadly, a third of people who enter therapy are male, and many are resistent to stay in the therapy process beyond a few sessions.

Taking the first step toward therapy can feel daunting. You might be anxious about what to discuss, whether your therapist will judge you, or if you’ll feel at ease talking about personal matters. If this sounds familiar, it’s reassuring to know that a skilled therapist prioritises your comfort and moves at your pace.
