We offer evidence based psychological assessment, formulation and interventions for women experiencing a range of difficulties, not limited to but including:
- Distress related to a gynaecological condition, including experiences of painful sex
- Difficult and repeated experiences of intimate relationship struggles
- Distress related to fertility and transitions, such as:
- Birth trauma
- Pregnancy
- Planning another pregnancy after a traumatic previous experience
- Pregnancy loss
- Childless not by choice
- Childless by choice
- Pregnancy termination decision making
- Post pregnancy termination distress
- Menopause
- Role changes (in relationships, your life stage)
- Emotional eating impacting on sense of self, wellbeing or fertility path
We are also well placed to support you to navigate related NHS and specialist medical services and conversations, as well as signposting where needed.
Please note, our experience tells us that the psychological care of a woman currently pregnant or very early in their post-natal period can be best held within their existing care team or within the NHS specialisms available. For example, within high-risk medical pathways, perinatal community mental health teams, generic mental health services. If, following assessment we feel we are not best placed to work with you, we will have that conversation with you.
