Postnatal Depression, known as PND, is a common experience for women after they have had a baby.
You don't have to suffer alone, reach out so that you can begin to enjoy this time rather than just survive it.
If you’re finding it hard to cope emotionally during pregnancy, it doesn’t mean you’re failing. These emotional challenges are part of the journey for many, many people—and support is available. Therapy can provide a valuable opportunity for navigating this stage and I welcome the opportunity to work with you using an approach which values clarity, kindness, and confidence in your new role.
The perinatal period, from preconception through to 3 years after birth, is critical time where the mental health of a baby begins, and it is a unique time where women are highly motivated to seek help.
There is a complexity to women’s mental health. In the perinatal period, there are significant hormonal changes, physical body changes, identity changes, role changes, workplace and financial changes and often significant shifts and changes within our social and attachment relationships.
