Perinatal Counselling

More and more people are struggling with fertility challenges, and at least 1/5 moms & 1/10 dads experience prenatal and postpartum anxiety or depression- so if you’re struggling, you are not alone. We believe you deserve a therapist who understands the unique challenges of this period in your life. 

Many of us imagine the way we believe things should be or will be, only to be struck with a very different reality, leaving us feeling completely isolated and overwhelmed. We believe you shouldn't have to go through this alone. At Bloom, we understand the nuances of this time. We see how typical counselling strategies may not work or even be possible for parents with young kids and how mental health challenges look and feel different during this time.
