Expanding and adding to your family, either through childbirth or adoption can bring up internal struggles and feelings that need sorting out. These struggles don’t only happen to first time parents, adding to your family no matter its size is a massive change. If you have experienced pregnancy or infant loss, adding another child can bring up additional and sometimes conflicting feelings.
What if the birth or loss happened years ago? Maybe you weren’t ready to face it then, maybe you just kept your head above water because that was all you could do. But time hasn’t healed as much as you would like and now you are ready. It is never too late, and healing is still possible.
Together we will work towards identifying steps you can take TODAY to begin healing and take back control of your emotions.
