Healing through understanding 

Are you seeking clarity and emotional support after your birth experience?

Birth debriefing gives you an opportunity to talk openly and honestly about your birth experience, with someone who is trained to support you in telling your story.

Our birth debriefing sessions provide a safe space for your story to be heard and acknowledged and can be a starting point to understanding and processing grief and loss associated with your birth.

Birth debriefing is for anyone who feels they may be affected by the experience of birth. We support both individuals and couples to debrief their birth.

As a couple, you may find the emotions and responses to your birth are impacting your relationship, your connection, and your communication.

Birth debriefing can help you make sense of your perspective of the birth, clarify events and feelings, and provide tools for moving forward.
