Antenatal anxiety
For expecting mothers whose minds race with worst-case scenarios, health worries or a sense of dread.
Pregnancy can come with a constant hum of worry — about the baby, the birth, your body, whether you'll cope. For some women that worry tips into something bigger: a racing mind, trouble sleeping, a knot of dread you can't reason your way out of.
Anxiety in pregnancy is more common than people admit, and it responds well to support. We work with the worry directly — calming the nervous system, gently challenging the catastrophic stories, and helping you feel more grounded before your baby arrives.
Together, we can
- Quieten a racing, what-if mind
- Practical tools for sleep, panic and physical tension
- Prepare emotionally — not just logistically — for birth and beyond
