Perinatal Counselling & Maternal Mental Health

Okay…

This whole motherhood thing is really. effing. hard.

Do you feel overwhelmed by the exhaustion, the responsibility, the pressure, and the mental load? Do you feel like motherhood has taken over your identity? Are your needs being met? Do you even know what your needs are anymore?

Whatever it is that has brought you here, to this moment…trust it.

Perinatal Counselling

Counselling for Mothers.

Whether you’re trying to conceive, currently pregnant, juggling grandchildren or anywhere in between, motherhood is all-encompassing. You deserve support wherever you are on the journey of motherhood. At Reverie Therapy, providing support and resources to mothers is our passion and focus. Working with Registered Clinical Counsellor Jess Preston, you will be guided with warmth, provided with evidence-based tools and resources, and gently empowered to explore and reconnect with yourself as you journey through motherhood.

As a mother to two young daughters herself, Jess has lived experience with miscarriage, birth trauma, and the loss of identity that new parenthood can bring. Jess is on a mission to use her experience and training to connect with mothers and empower them, to build a community of support for mothers and to read all the parenting books!
