Counselling for Postpartum Support

Whether you are a first time parent or welcoming another child in your life, parenting can feel challenging!  On top of sleep deprivation, mountains of laundry, hormonal shifts, and neverending diaper changes, parents often don’t have time or space to process their own experiences. There is immense pressure on parents to uphold unrealistic standards of parenting.

Counselling can help you navigate:

  • Feeling overwhelmed and wondering if you should have become a parent in the first place.
  • Feeling guilty due to high self-expectations.
  • Having boundaries around unsolicited advice.
  • How to make time for yourself/partner(s)/other children.
  • Not feeling “bonded” with your baby.
  • Having racing thoughts and an inability to quiet your mind.
  • Feeling empty and numb as if you’re just going through the motions.
  • Lack of focus and concentration.
  • Being afraid that if you reach out for help, others will judge your inabilities.
  • Thoughts of running away or leaving your baby behind.
  • Being constantly in a state of worry.

If you can relate to any of the above, I invite you to contact me today for a free consultation. We can work together to find you some relief.
