First Session: Perinatal Counselling

 A 90-minute first session to talk through what is going on and decide how I can support you. 
Full description

This is where we start. The first session is longer because it includes your intake: your history, what brought you here and what you hope will change. We will not rush it.

I offer trauma-informed, neuro-affirming counselling for mothers during pregnancy and early parenthood, including expat mothers and neurodivergent mothers. You can come with something specific, or just with "it's a lot right now".

Many mothers come to me with:

  • Birth trauma or a difficult birth (see also my Birth Debriefing sessions)
  • Anxiety, exhaustion or burnout
  • Strain in family relationships
  • Identity change and the grief of becoming a mother
  • Life far from home and family
  • ADHD or autism questions, or a late diagnosis
What to expect

  • 90 minutes online
  • Camera optional
  • An intake form to complete before we meet. A few basic details are required; everything else is optional, so share only what feels comfortable. There is also space for an emergency contact, which is optional. This is standard practice in trauma-informed work, and I would only ever use it if I were worried about your immediate safety.
  • A brief summary afterwards, and a suggestion for next steps
