A birth debrief is a one-off counselling session that provides the time, space and appropriate support to talk openly about your experience of labour and birth, to fully understand how events unfolded, and to try to organise and process your emotional response.

​

Debriefing can be particularly beneficial if your labour or birth unfolded in a way that you did not expect, or if there are things that you are ruminating on and would like to understand more clearly.  A birth debrief can be particularly pertinent when planning and preparing for a subsequent birth.

As a midwife with extensive experience in mental health care, I look forward to holding space for women and families to unpack their labour and birth experience to develop the tools to make sense of what happened, and to find the peace to move forward.
