Women's Issues
As a woman, you may have unique struggles that can impact your emotional well-being. Reproductive and maternal mental well-being is a focus at London Psychological Services. Suffering from fertility challenges, undergoing fertility treatments, experiencing pregnancy loss and complications, or having a traumatic birth experience can all have impacts on your psychological well-being. You may feel overwhelmed by the effects of these experiences. Pregnancy is often seen as a wonderful time in a woman’s life, so it can be unsettling when feelings of anxiety, depression and stress accompany it. We understand these experiences and our goal is to provide you with an opportunity to address, explore and be supported during these experiences.
Another challenging experience for some women is the presence of anxiety or depression following the birth of a child. While the addition of a baby is typically a joyous occasion, it can also bring along unwelcome changes in mood. If you are concerned about your mood following the birth of a baby, please contact us to determine whether counselling is appropriate.
