You Don’t Have to Face Parenthood Alone

Becoming a parent can bring unexpected challenges and emotions. If you’ve experienced birth trauma, are struggling with anxiety or depression, or feel disconnected from your baby, it’s easy to feel stuck, isolated, and unsure of how to move forward.

I’m here to listen and support you, offering specialist psychological therapy to help you heal and find a way forward.

Compassionate Therapy for Parents

At Birth Matters Therapy, I provide a safe and compassionate space where you can explore your emotions and process difficult experiences. Whether you are a first-time parent or have been through a traumatic birth, I am here to help you regain your emotional balance and connect with your baby and yourself.

You deserve to feel supported, understood, and empowered.

Birth Trauma and PTSD

A difficult or traumatic birth can leave lasting emotional wounds. If you are experiencing anxiety, flashbacks, or difficulty bonding with your baby, I provide specialised therapy to help you process these events, work through the trauma, and restore emotional safety.

Perinatal Anxiety and Depression

The early days of parenthood can be overwhelming. If anxiety or depression is weighing you down, I offer a space to help you understand these feelings and find ways to cope, so you can enjoy this time with your baby and feel like yourself again.

Difficulty Bonding with Your Baby

Struggling to bond with your newborn can be distressing, especially when you had different expectations. I specialise in infant attachment and can help you work through these challenges, fostering a healthy emotional connection between you and your baby.

Support After a Traumatic First Birth

If you’ve experienced trauma in a previous pregnancy or birth, subsequent pregnancies can bring fears and anxieties. I provide support for parents navigating these feelings, helping you feel more confident and prepared for your next steps.

Hypnotherapy for Emotional Resilience

I offer hypnotherapy to help manage stress, anxiety, and fear throughout your pregnancy and early parenthood journey. This holistic approach can ease emotional strain, helping you feel calmer and more in control.
