Pregnancy and Baby Loss Counselling in London | For the grief others don't always know how to hold
If you've lost a pregnancy, there is no right way to grieve and no timeline you are supposed to stick to. Whether your loss was recent or years ago, whether others knew about it or not, your grief is real and you deserve support. You don't have to carry this on your own.
Loss in pregnancy and early life is often grieved in silence. People may not know what to say, or may move on long before you are ready to. You might be holding it together for everyone else while something inside you has broken. There is space here for all of it.

How therapy can help
Therapy gives you a place to grieve without managing anyone else's discomfort. We hold space for who or what you've lost, make room for the parts that feel too big to say out loud, and, when you're ready, look at how to carry this and keep living alongside it. There's no rushing you towards feeling better.
My approach: Integrative, drawing on relational, psychodynamic and mindfulness-based therapy, and shaped around what you need.
Session format: Sessions are 50 minutes, weekly, in person in Notting Hill, West London or online across the UK.
Common questions
My loss was a long time ago. Is it too late for therapy?
No. Grief does not expire. Many people come years later, sometimes when a new pregnancy or anniversary brings it back. You are welcome whenever you need to.
Can you help with anxiety in a pregnancy after loss?
Yes. Pregnancy after loss carries its own fear and tension. This is something I support women through.
Do I have to talk about the details?
Only what you want to, when you want to. We go gently and you stay in control of the conversation.
Do you work online?
Yes, across the UK, as well as in person in Notting Hill.
