Fertility

The process of trying to conceive can often introduce a range of social, emotional, physical, and relationship-related stressors. Fertility coaching and counseling play a crucial role in assisting individuals and couples in effectively managing these stresses. These services can help you navigate the complexities of choices and available options on your path to parenthood or expanding your family, offering support and guidance throughout the journey.

Grief & Loss Counselling

Experiencing a loss, whether it’s the loss of a pregnancy, a baby, or a loved one, can be an overwhelmingly emotional and personal journey. The healing process is unique to each individual. The WOMB’s skilled coaches and counselors are here to assist you in navigating your emotions, fears, and thoughts, providing support and guidance to help you heal during this challenging time.

Postpartum Depression, Anxiety and other Mood Disorders

Introducing a new baby into the family can present challenges, regardless of how well-prepared, anticipated, or loved the child is. It’s common to experience “baby blues,” but in some cases, these feelings may be indicative of a Perinatal Mood or Anxiety Disorder (PMAD). PMAD can significantly impact your ability to care for both your child and yourself. It is crucial for the well-being of your entire family that you seek support and counseling from a therapist experienced in addressing PMADs. Your therapist will work with you to help you regain a healthier state of well-being and foster a more positive parenting experience.

If you are feeling distraught, are thinking about hurting yourself or anyone else, please get professional help immediately.
