How I can support you

Trying For A Baby (IVF)

Trying for a baby can result in relationship strains, anxiety, grief and low moods. Therapy can provide emotional support, coping mechanisms, and a safe space to navigate challenges.

Hypnobirthing

Hypnobirthing builds confidence and reduces fear using relaxation, breathing and a positive mindset techniques. Helping you to feel fully prepared and calm. Providing practical tools for your labour.

Fear of Childbirth

Suitable for first time parents and those holding anxiety from a previous birth. Use therapy to process and release fears. Build confidence for a calmer birth.

Antenatal Anxiety

Pregnancy anxiety can be overwhelming and experience self-doubt. Therapy can ease anxious thoughts, release fears, build self-trust and provide greater confidence within your pregnancy.

Antenatal Depression

Depression in pregnancy creates low mood, disconnection and overwhelm. Counselling can help you process difficult emotions, reduce isolation, connect with your baby, to feel supported and hopeful.

Birth Trauma

Therapy for birth trauma can help you process the birth, reduce distressing memories, release fear and rebuild confidence, emotional balance, and connection with your baby.

Identity Loss In The Perinatal Period

Postnatal Depression

Postnatal Anxiety

If you are experiencing worry, racing thoughts or fear of something going wrong. Counselling can calm anxious thoughts, reduce overwhelm and build coping strategies.
