Pregnancy and Baby Loss Counselling

Specialist support for anyone affected by baby loss — parents, partners, siblings, or grandparents — at any stage after loss.

When life looks different to how you imagined

Walking beside you as you navigate life after loss

Losing a baby, whether through miscarriage, stillbirth, neonatal or at any stage of pregnancy, changes everything. Grief can come in waves of  overwhelming emotion; sadness, anger, confusion or even numbness. You might feel invisible to others, or unsure how to keep going when the world around you does but time for you has stopped.

I know how important it is to have someone who understands the depth and complexity of baby loss. With specialist training and experience supporting families through grief, I offer a space where all of your emotions, memories and love can be held with care and understanding.

This space is open to anyone touched by loss, including mothers, fathers, partners, siblings and grandparents, whether your loss was recent or many years ago.

We can take things at your pace, exploring what feels right for you, in your own time.

If you’re now pregnant again or thinking about a future pregnancy, you might find this brings new layers of emotion, such as, hope, fear, and everything in between. You can read more about support during pregnancy after loss on the Perinatal Counselling page.

Support for anyone affected by pregnancy and baby loss

How counselling with me can help

A space to talk about your baby and your story

You might want to share memories, speak your baby’s name, or reflect on what has been left unsaid.

You can verbalise all the confusing unspoken words you’re carrying, without judgement.

This is a space where your story can be told and your love for your baby acknowledged and held.

Understanding how loss touches every part of life

Grief can affect relationships, identity and everyday moments in ways you might not expect.

You can  openly talk about the layers of emotions and the different ways your life has changed.

Together we can explore how culture, family or faith has shaped the way you grieve and remember.

Finding ways to carry love and grief together

Counselling is not about moving on or letting go, there is no such thing when you lose a baby, however the expectation might be there from yourself or others.

We can gently work towards finding new ways to hold love and grief side by side, so that you can navigate this journey in your own way and at your pace.
