Pregnancy loss and difficult birth experiences can affect identity, relationships, future decisions, and the way the body remembers what happened.
Counselling can offer room to process meaning and emotion without requiring you to move on, find a silver lining, or tell the story before you are ready.
This support may include
- Grief following pregnancy loss
- A birth experience that felt frightening, disempowering, or unresolved
- Anxiety about future pregnancy, birth, or healthcare encounters
- Isolation when others do not understand the significance of the loss or experience
What to expect
- You choose what to share and how quickly to approach difficult material.
- Specific trauma-treatment modalities, training, and scope will be confirmed before this service is opened for booking.
Questions about this support
Will I have to describe everything that happened?
No. Counselling should be paced collaboratively. You can begin with what is affecting you now and decide what details feel useful to discuss.
Is this a crisis or emergency service?
No. If you need immediate help, call 9-1-1, go to the nearest emergency department, call or text 9-8-8, or call 310-6789 in British Columbia.
