Pregnancy may bring anticipation alongside uncertainty, fear, grief, or a sense that your inner world has changed faster than the people around you can see.
Perinatal counselling offers space to slow down, name what is happening, and explore practical ways of moving through this season with more support.
This support may include
- Pregnancy-related worry and overwhelm
- Changing identity, body, roles, and relationships
- Preparing emotionally for birth and postpartum life
- Navigating competing expectations from family, culture, and self
What to expect
- Sessions are collaborative and paced around what feels most useful to you.
- Cradle Therapy does not replace medical or emergency care. Physical or urgent mental-health concerns should also be discussed with the appropriate healthcare provider.
Questions about this support
Do I need to be experiencing a crisis to seek support?
No. Counselling can be useful when something feels hard, unfamiliar, or important—even when you do not have a diagnosis or a clear label for it.
Can counselling work alongside my maternity care?
Yes. Counselling can complement care from your physician, midwife, or other providers, but it does not replace medical assessment or treatment.
