Dads and Partners

I’m regularly blown away by the determination, loyalty, understanding and care that dads and partners give when the person they love, grows a baby, gives birth and then transforms into a mother.

For them, this time is just as transformational as it is for the birth mother and sometimes this can bring up lots of questions, fears or worries, which ideally need to be worked through before they become a new parent.

My support for dads and partners may involve focusing on certain topics, like the physiological birth process, coping with and supporting their partner during labour, what to do in different birth environments, the postnatal period and dealing with family life when it’s changed beyond recognition. I’ve worked with dads who are themselves suffering from trauma symptoms and have benefited from having some one to one sessions, either before or after birth. 

My two hour dad/partner sessions are £70, in person or online.
