I have a special interest in supporting Women in Business. Helping to empower you to prioritise your wellbeing, navigate challenges, and unlock your full potential – because success starts with you.
At Matter Therapies, we believe that the mental health and wellbeing of women in business are not just personal priorities but foundational pillars for professional success. We are committed to fostering a safe, inclusive, and empowering environment where women can explore their challenges, remove any blocks and unlock their full potential.
We celebrate the courage it takes to pursue entrepreneurship and leadership, recognising that the intersection of identities such as gender, race, and age creates a unique experience. By addressing these complexities, we aim to dismantle barriers, amplify strengths, and champion the success of women in business everywhere.
“As a female founder who ran a retail business for 8 years I understand the mental load and pressure of running a business and juggling life.”
Gynelle Leon is the founder of Matter Therapies, an integrative counsellor, and a seasoned entrepreneur with a passion for empowering women in business. With years of experience navigating the challenges of running a business as a female founder, Gynelle understands the unique pressures women face when balancing ambition, family life, and societal expectations.

Her deep understanding of the intersectionality of gender, race, and age in business makes her uniquely equipped to help women navigate the emotional and mental toll of these experiences.
Beyond therapy, Gynelle offers holistic business advice, bridging the gap between mental health and professional success. Her mission is simple: to ensure that women in business have the tools and support they need to thrive—not just professionally but personally, too.
A passionate plant lover, Gynelle has a particular admiration for cacti, which she sees as powerful symbols of strength and resilience—qualities she helps her clients cultivate in their own lives.
Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, battling self-doubt, or simply seeking a space to focus on your wellbeing, Gynelle is here to help you prioritise your mental health, align with your goals, and build a future where success feels fulfilling and sustainable.
