The transition to parenthood is unique to each woman. While news of a pregnancy can be a time of happiness and excitement, many women will also experience feelings of apprehension and uncertainty about what this pregnancy means for them and their future. The arrival of a baby can create equally mixed emotions as a mother makes sense of her birthing experience and adjustment to parenthood.

A psychologist in the perinatal field has an in-depth knowledge of the issues that face women during pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. The safe, caring and confidential space provided by a psychologist can furnish women with the essential support needed to embrace this stage of life.
