Mother counselling
Motherhood can be beautiful, but it can also feel overwhelming, lonely, and relentless.
If you’re finding yourself anxious, exhausted, or unsure of who you are outside of being “mum,” you’re not alone. I specialise in supporting mothers to reconnect with themselves, find calm, and rediscover moments of joy in everyday life.
At Reconnect Counselling, I offer therapy tailored to the realities of motherhood. Whether you’re navigating the early years, coping with the pressures of family life, adjusting to the changes in your relationships, or grieving after miscarriage, I’m here to walk alongside you. Together, we can explore your feelings, your identity, and your needs. Creating space for you again.
I have a particular focus on supporting mothers raising children with disabilities. With over 17 years of experience working alongside autistic children and their families, I bring deep empathy and understanding into our sessions. This is a space where you can be honest about how hard it feels, without fear of judgement.
Therapy is about giving yourself permission to pause, reflect, and grow. I offer in-person sessions in Edinburgh City center, “walk and talk” therapy by the sea in Portobello, or online sessions if you prefer the flexibility of home. However we meet, the most important thing is creating a setting where you feel supported, safe, and truly heard.
