Support
Your wellbeing matters at every stage of motherhood. Through compassionate listening, birth debriefing, 3 Step Rewind and the connection of singing together, I offer space to feel heard, explore what you’re carrying and find support that feels right for you
Debrief Listening Service
Your experience matters, and you deserve space to talk about it. Designed To Be Heard is a gentle, one-to-one debrief where you can share your story, feel listened to and explore how it has affected you.
You might want to talk about pregnancy, birth or your experience since becoming a parent. Perhaps something still feels unresolved, or things unfolded differently from how you hoped. I’ll listen without judgement, help you acknowledge what you’ve been carrying and explore what you would like to feel moving forward. You choose what to share and the pace we take.
You can come before an NHS debrief to explore the questions you want answered, afterwards to reflect on what you’ve heard, or independently at any stage. There’s no deadline for needing to talk, and your experience doesn’t have to meet anyone else’s definition of difficult to deserve care.

Singing Mamas
Singing together can have a powerful role in supporting maternal mental health. Research into group singing after birth has found that it can help reduce symptoms of postnatal depression, with one trial finding faster improvements among mothers with moderate to severe symptoms compared with usual care. It can also offer opportunities for emotional expression, connection and rediscovering a sense of yourself.
Singing Mamas brings that focus on wellbeing into a welcoming group where your voice belongs. Sharing songs can create moments of joy, a sense of achievement and time to feel absorbed in something for yourself, while enjoying closeness with your baby. These are benefits mothers have described in research exploring how group singing supports postnatal recovery.
I teach simple songs by ear, so you don’t need experience, confidence or a “good” voice. Come with your baby or by yourself, exactly as you are. There’s no pressure to explain how you’re feeling, just space to sing, find company and give your own wellbeing some care.
3 Step Rewind
for Birth Trauma
Sometimes a birth experience stays with you in ways you hadn’t expected. Memories may feel overwhelming, certain reminders can bring difficult feelings rushing back, or you might struggle to feel settled even though the experience is over. You deserve support with how you feel now.
3 Step Rewind is a gentle, structured approach that uses guided relaxation and visualisation, with the aim of easing the emotional response attached to distressing memories. You don’t have to tell me every detail of what happened. I’ll guide you through the process at your pace, with time to explore how you would like to feel moving forward.
Whether your birth was recent or years ago, you’re welcome to get in touch. Your experience doesn’t need to look traumatic to anyone else to have affected you. We can talk through what you’re finding difficult and whether 3 Step Rewind feels like the right support for you.
