Perinatal therapy gives you a place to work through the emotional changes of pregnancy and the transition into parenthood. Mügé Tiritoğlu, RSW, offers virtual pregnancy counselling for adults across British Columbia.
Pregnancy can bring anticipation, worry, changing relationships, and pressure from family, culture, or your own expectations.
Prenatal counselling can focus on worry about birth, changing relationships, family expectations, or feeling unlike yourself. You do not need to wait until things feel unmanageable to ask for support.
Sessions start with the concerns you bring. Together, you and Mügé identify what you want to work on, the support around you, and practical next steps that fit your life.
Counselling can focus on
- 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 focused on the concerns you bring.
- Individual video sessions are 50 minutes and cost $150 CAD. When consultation space becomes available, a free 15-minute conversation helps you discuss fit before counselling begins.
- 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
What is the difference between perinatal therapy and prenatal counselling?
Perinatal describes the period around pregnancy and birth, including the transition after birth. Prenatal counselling focuses on pregnancy. At Cradle Therapy, this page describes support during pregnancy; the postpartum counselling page covers support after birth.
Can I see a pregnancy therapist online from anywhere in BC?
Yes. Mügé offers video counselling for adults who are physically located in British Columbia during each session. You need a private space and a reliable connection; your consultation is a chance to discuss a setup that works for you.
Do I need to be experiencing a crisis to seek support?
No. You can seek counselling for worry, change, relationship strain, or simply because pregnancy feels harder than expected. A diagnosis is not required.
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.
