Welcome...

    I remember the day I broke down. Baby Rachel was 6 weeks old and she would not stop crying. Luckily for me, I had people I could call on. After a good cry (and I mean a good, long cry), lots of hugs and a warm cup of tea, I was able to release some of the intense pressure I was unknowingly putting on myself. And guess what... I looked down at Rachel and she had stopped crying. I was able to see how utterly beautiful she was. Thank goodness for everyday miracles!

Since that time, I have an almost irresistible urge to provide the same level of kindness and support that I received that day and for many months after that. Many women experience feelings of elation and joy, yet many of us also experience overwhelm, disappointment, fear and sadness - often all within the same hour!

In my counselling practice, I do not focus on giving advice on how you should mother your baby. I provide a relaxed, warm and open space for clients to explore some of the more common emotions associated with pregnancy, birth and early mothering. In this space, clients can become free of expectations to be perfect, thus allowing themselves to truly blossom and enjoy the experience of being with their babies.
