Christina is a kind, compassionate, gentle Human Givens psychotherapist with over thirty years experience working across the social care sector including the NHS, GP surgeries, community mental health teams , the charity sector and in private practice. For the last fifteen years she has been working with those who are pregnant, giving birth or in the early months of parenthood.

You shouldn't be left feeling upset when you think about your birth experience. Perhaps you ended up having an emergency c-section after planning a water birth. Maybe there was a medical problem with you or your baby, or you felt ignored by people who were supposed to be caring for you. Instead of being joyful and happy, as you had imagined it, your experience of giving birth felt lonely and frightening.

25 years as a practising midwife places me in a prime position to offer women and partners a specialist therapy. I trained as a birth trauma resolution therapist with the acclaimed psychotherapist, Jennifer Mullan in 2017 and work in North Bedfordshire.

I work with women who have experienced birth-related trauma. I gently hold space for you to share your stories, explore your feelings with all the tender parts of you. I ask curious questions, offer reflections, guidance and wisdom to help you decide on how you want to move forward.

I have 20 years’ experience in the NHS as a RMN. I currently work part-time as a specialist community nurse within the Leeds Perinatal Mental Health Service. I offer private EMDR therapy or emotional support, whether you are pregnant, or if you need to target a birth trauma before contemplating a future pregnancy.

I am a BABCP accredited Cognitive Behavioural Therapist, specialising in pregnancy and postpartum therapy. In my practice, I regularly assist new mums to recover from traumatic births, to feel confident and content.

You do not need to suffer in silence. There are evidence-based therapies that can support you not only to recover from a traumatic birth, but to emerge from this experience as the parent that you want to be.

I am a senior clinical psychologist with many years’ experience working perinatally and with people struggling with their mental health and trauma. I am also a mother of two children, with experience both of traumatic birth, and of how different and positive subsequent birth experience can be.

I am a qualified psychotherapist with many years of experience of working with mums, partners and parents-to-be. I have managed an NHS perinatal counselling service and have expertise in working with many of the challenges that can be experienced in the perinatal period.

I can support individuals experiencing a range of difficulties in the perinatal period including: birth trauma, perinatal loss, adjustment to the role of parenting, tokophobia and perinatal low mood and anxiety.

Katherine has extensive training in both trauma and in attachment issues. She is able to offer specialist therapy for those who need support with anxiety, OCD and depression before, during and after pregnancy; infertility miscarriage and pregnancy loss; assisted reproduction; and couples issues around reproduction and early parenthood.

I have 10 years of experience of working within a maternity setting as both a nurse and a midwife and in that time have developed a real interest in working with parents who feel that they need to explore their birth experience further or are daunted by the prospect of parenthood.

I strongly believe in early intervention and I specialise in supporting parents who are struggling to bond with their babies. These kinds of struggles can be due to a traumatic birth, an early separation, parents’ own difficult childhood, past trauma, a bereavement…

I specialise in the assessment and treatment of psychological difficulties following traumatic experiences and have expertise and clinical experience in treating a range of psychological difficulties.

I am registered as a clinical psychologist with the Health and Care Profession Council (HCPC), BUPA and AXA PPP Healthcare. Myself and my colleagues offer therapy sessions from our office in central London where you are very welcome to bring your baby with you. I offer a reduced rate for women on maternity leave.

I offer a warm and supportive environment and evidence-based therapeutic interventions for individuals, couples and families who have been affected by issues in the perinatal period.

Our goal is to help new mothers feel calmer, stronger and empowered through evidence-based psychological treatment. We are passionate about making psychological support easily accessible and raising awareness about the psychological impact of birth trauma on new families.

Transitioning into parenthood can be a uniquely personal and challenging experience for anyone. As an Integrative Therapist with an MA in Relationship Therapy, I am able to offer professional insight and help with the healing process.

I run my private practice alongside my role in a busy NHS trust where I have delivered psychological therapy and supervision for the past 10 years. I can help you to see yourself as resilient and feel positive about the world around you and your future.

I am passionate about lifting that burden of carrying birth trauma around, and helping people toward a more peaceful path.
