Women’s Health & Wellness

Being a woman in today’s world often means carrying a lot—quietly. You may be navigating major life transitions like fertility concerns, pregnancy, parenting, or menopause, all while juggling work, relationships, and the pressure to “keep it all together.” If you're feeling unseen, unheard, or simply exhausted from it all, you're not alone—and support is available.

At Cherry Tree Counselling, we understand the layered realities women face and offer a safe, validating space where you can explore, heal, and reconnect with yourself.

 

Understanding the Challenges

Being a woman in today’s world often means carrying a lot—quietly and constantly.


You might be:

  • Navigating major life transitions like fertility concerns, pregnancy, parenting, or peri/menopause

  • Juggling work, caregiving, and household responsibilities while trying to care for yourself

  • Feeling overwhelmed, anxious, burnt out, or emotionally drained

  • Struggling with mood changes, sleep disruptions, or physical symptoms that impact daily life

  • Questioning your identity, your direction, or your relationships

  • Longing for space to feel seen, heard, and supported without judgment


If any of this resonates with you, you're not alone—and you don’t have to navigate it all by yourself. At Cherry Tree Counselling, we understand the complex, layered realities that women face. We’re here to offer compassionate, evidence-informed support to help you move through life’s challenges with more clarity, connection, and care.

How We Support You

At Cherry Tree, we offer a range of therapeutic approaches that meet you where you are and honour your unique story. Here are just a few of the therapies we offer to support your healing and growth.

  • Many of our therapists use evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help you better understand your thoughts, emotions, and behaviours. These tools support emotional regulation, reduce distress, and build resilience.

  • This approach helps you explore early relational experiences and how they may be influencing your current relationships, sense of self, and coping strategies. It's especially supportive in healing wounds related to trust, safety, and connection.

  • You are not your problem. Narrative therapy creates space to re-author your story by separating your identity from the challenges you’ve faced. This strengths-based approach helps you reclaim your voice and values in empowering ways.

  • Your body holds wisdom. Somatic therapy helps you tune into physical sensations, supporting the release of stored stress or trauma. By reconnecting with your body in safe, mindful ways, you can build a deeper sense of presence, safety, and emotional awareness.

  • Mindfulness invites you to slow down and be with what is—without judgement. These practices help ground you in the present, reduce overwhelm, and increase self-compassion, creating space for more intentional responses to life’s challenges.

  • When past experiences continue to impact your present, trauma-focused therapies can offer deep healing. Approaches like Internal Family Systems (IFS), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Brainspotting, and the Rewind Technique support the gentle processing of trauma in ways that honour your nervous system and personal pace. These therapies can help reduce emotional reactivity, foster self-compassion, and restore a sense of inner safety and control.
