Why this work is personal to Flora.
My passion for supporting women with chronic and hormonal health challenges comes from personal experience. Living with PCOS and Hashimoto’s has given me firsthand insight into the emotional and physical strain these conditions create — from fatigue and body changes to anxiety, frustration, and the pressure to keep functioning “normally.”
Through my own journey, I’ve learned how vital compassionate, informed mental health support is when your body feels unpredictable. It’s what inspired me to create a space where women can feel seen, validated, and empowered to care for themselves fully, body and mind.
What can female health anxiety therapy help with?
Chronic and hormonal health conditions affect more than the body — they impact how you feel, think, and connect. Therapy offers a space to explore and learn ways to cope with the physical and emotional load of ongoing symptoms. Common areas of focus include:
-
Coping with pain, fatigue, and health anxiety
-
Managing stress, burnout, or medical trauma
-
Balancing self-care, relationships, and work responsibilities
-
Rebuilding trust in your body and sense of control
Why does female health anxiety therapy matter?
When your body doesn’t feel predictable, it can erode confidence, relationships, and overall mental health. Many women describe feeling dismissed, misunderstood, or exhausted from managing symptoms alone. Therapy helps you reconnect with yourself — validating your experiences, identifying stress patterns, and rebuilding self-compassion.
By addressing both emotional and physical wellbeing, you can begin to feel calmer, more capable, and better supported in everyday life.
At Flora Psychotherapy, we take a holistic, compassionate approach to female health anxiety therapy. Sessions integrate emotional processing with practical tools for coping, communication, and boundary-setting.
We explore the connection between mind and body, using evidence-informed techniques to manage anxiety, regulate emotions, and prevent overwhelm. Our work often includes developing routines that honour your energy levels, navigating relationships affected by illness, and finding ways to advocate for your needs with confidence.
Our goal is to help you feel more at ease in your body — not by “fixing” it, but by supporting you in living fully within it.
What to expect in female health anxiety therapy sessions.
Sessions move at your pace. Together, we’ll discuss how your health challenges show up in your emotions, relationships, and daily life, identifying where stress and frustration take hold. You’ll learn grounding tools, emotional regulation strategies, and gentle ways to rebuild trust with yourself and your body.
Expect a space that’s validating, collaborative, and shaped around your comfort — one where you can show up exactly as you are, on the days you feel strong and on the days you don’t.
