Counselling & Psychotherapy for Mums
Motherhood is one of the biggest transitions we will ever face as a women, whether we decide to birth children or choose not to. It is a transition that can shake us to our core, asking us to redefine who we are, what we desire, and how we wish to live.
This transition used to be honoured by a rite of passage, guiding us through a process of rebirth; in our modern times, we have moved away from this truth. Many women, as a result, feel lost, alone, uncertain, and frustrated once they enter motherhood. Of course, this is often mixed with feelings of joy, elation, and excitement.
Some women feel an instant connection with their babies, whilst others feel nothing. The noise of the world around may bring us feelings of insecurity, insufficiency, and unworthiness.
The story doesn’t have to end here; you don’t have to sit alone in the dark tunnel that can accompany motherhood. Whether you know you really need support, or you can just sense things a little off, I’m here for you.
No one told you that feelings from childhood might resurface, the lack of mothering you received has left you more confused, that being a mother had the potential to reconfigure who you are, what you desire, and where you want to go.
"The moment a child is born, the mother is also born again."
Gertrude Stein
This summarises perfectly the transition to matrescence, you are born again, this can feel scary, overwhelming, and it can be exciting as you get to rediscover YOU!
