Postpartum Counselling and Psychotherapy
The arrival of a child can bring profound joy, but it can also stir up unexpected emotions and challenges. After the birth of your baby, you may find yourself feeling overwhelmed, anxious, exhausted, or unsure of how to navigate the changes in your life. It’s completely normal to experience a range of emotions during this time. However, if these feelings are interfering with your ability to care for yourself or your baby, postpartum counselling can help you process these emotions and find ways to adjust to your new life.
At Valley Connections Counselling, we provide compassionate, non-judgmental postpartum counselling for parents in all stages of the postpartum period. Our goal is to offer you the support you need as you adjust to the changes and demands of parenthood. Whether you’re dealing with feelings of sadness, anxiety, stress, or the pressures of balancing your new responsibilities, our Registered Psychotherapists are here to listen, support, and help you find practical solutions.

Our office is a welcoming and flexible space where you can breastfeed, diaper change, or comfort your baby during the session. We are committed to making your therapy experience as supportive and accessible as possible during this precious and demanding time.
