Has becoming a parent brought up challenges you weren’t expecting? You might be struggling with the impact of a difficult birth, experiencing unwanted images, memories, thoughts, and avoiding painful reminders of it. You might be struggling with intense emotions, feeling anxious, angry, guilty, or self-critical. Perhaps you are struggling with the changes to your identity or relationships with loved ones.

The transition to parenthood is precious, but also brings a huge amount of change and challenge, both physically and emotionally. When a baby is born, there’s another brand new person needing support too - a new parent.

I use gold-standard therapies backed by scientific research. This means we can work on your challenges, and build your inner resources so you feel able not only to cope, but to thrive in your parenting. As a parent of young children I understand the challenges of taking care of yourself alongside a young family. We will adapt therapy to your needs so it feels manageable and suited to your pace. 

To decide if I’m the right therapist for you, I offer a free 30-minute video introductory call. You can book online through my website or send me an email at drlilylewis@gmail.com. Whatever you’re going through, you don’t need to navigate it alone.
