Therapy Services
Individual and Family Sessions
We offer individual sessions as well as sessions for couples and families. Depending on your needs, you may attend sessions on your own, with your partner, or together with your baby.
Our aim is to create a safe, supportive space where you can talk about your experience at your own pace. We will work collaboratively with you to understand what you are struggling with and agree on a treatment plan that feels right for you.
What might a session look like?
Initially, we will complete an assessment to understand your experiences, current difficulties and what you would like help with. We will then work together to develop a treatment plan.
Sessions may include:
-
Learning about birth trauma and understanding how it can affect you.
-
Developing practical strategies to manage distress.
-
Building self-care, relaxation and grounding skills.
-
Processing difficult or distressing memories of the birth.
-
Exploring how your experience has affected you, your relationships and your transition to parenthood.
-
Reflecting on your hopes for the future and supporting you to move forward.
Not every session will involve processing traumatic memories. We will work at a pace that feels manageable for you and make sure you have the skills and support you need throughout treatment. Trauma therapy can feel emotionally challenging, we will support you throughout and ensure the sessions end with time to feel settled and grounded before you leave.
