Dr Aditi Sharma, Mood in Mind

Hello, I'm Dr Aditi Sharma, I am a Perinatal and Maternal Clinical Psychologist and EMDR Therapist. I work in both private practice and the NHS. I offer a gentle, supportive space for anyone who has found pregnancy, birth, or the postnatal period difficult or distressing. Birth trauma can take many forms — a frightening or unexpected experience, feeling unheard or powerless, or struggling to connect after birth. Whatever your story, your feelings are valid, and recovery is possible.

Alongside my therapeutic work, I have researched South Asian women's experiences of maternity care and birth, exploring how culture, family expectations, and healthcare interactions shape women's experiences and recovery. This has deepened my understanding of how personal, social, and cultural factors influence how the experience and make sense of birth.

Whether you are a birthing parent, partner, or supporter, I'm here to help you process what happened and gently move toward healing at your own pace.
