Is your transition into parenthood more of a strain than you expected?
Are you feeling overwhelmed or unable to meet the demands of caring for a new child?
Are you experiencing anxiety or sadness in relation to your new role?
Are you feeling disconnected and unsupported by others?
New parents frequently struggle with what seems like a never-ending list of demands. Many may even experience anxiety and depression due to physical changes, relational challenges with their partners, occupational adjustments and new financial responsibilities.
Becoming a new parent is one of the most life changing and emotionally challenging moments of an individual’s life. Many new parents are consumed with worries about harming the baby and experience guilty about not being a good parent or doubting their ability to care for their child.
If you are a new parent and are finding it more difficult than initially anticipated, you may benefit for enlisting additional support.

Our evidence-based methods will help pave the way for an enjoyable beginning to your journey through parenthood.
