Birth Debrief
'Trauma is not what happens to you.
It's what happens inside of you as a result of what happened to you.'
Gabor Mate
A dedicated space to explore and process your birth experience in a way that feels supported, compassionate, and grounded in evidence-based care.
​
Whether your birth unfolded beautifully, was traumatic, unexpected, confusing or simply left you with unresolved feelings, this work offers you an opportunity to integrate your experience emotionally, cognitively and somatically.
​
Using a blend of reflective listening, somatic enquiry and nervous system informed tools we gently explore both the story you tell and the one your body holds. Trauma, stress or unresolved emotions can linger in the body, and by connecting with these feelings, we create space for healing.
​
You will be met with warmth, respect and attunement, not to ‘fix’ your experience, but to help you feel heard, validated and more whole.
​
Birth leaves an imprint. You deserve this space to understand yours.
​
​
Each session is 90 minutes.
On Mondays sessions are in person at the Health and Healing Collective in Leongatha.
All other availabilities are online unless otherwise arranged.
​
Sometimes, a debrief session opens more than just the story of birth. Memories, emotions or patterns that are asking to be seen and understood may begin to surface. This is why I offer follow up sessions, to support you to find deeper integration of these stories.​
1:1 Birth Preparation sessions
Personalised, intuitive support to help you feel deeply connected, informed and centred as you prepare to birth. These sessions are a space to tune into your body, explore what truly matters to you, and prepare for birth in a way that feels aligned and empowered.
Not to be confused with standard birth education, this is about finding your own path through this transformative experience.
​
This is a deeply intuitive, body-led approach to preparation. Rather than focusing solely on information or outcomes, we attune to what your inner wisdom is already holding.
​
​​​What can be explored in a session:
-
Releasing other peoples stories of labour and birth (particularly family's).
-
Working with your fears in a safe, supported environment so that if the even were to unfold it would be familiar and less traumatic.
-
Support to reconnect with your feminine energy and find your power.
-
Guidance to be able to accept support and to be able to feel into who would feel safe in your birth space.
-
Identifying what you need from the birth, not necessarily what you want.
​​
Pregnant with another baby and not sure if you need to be heard in your past experience or work with your next? Thats easy. You can't work for another birth until your experience of your past birth has been met with.

Each session is 90 minutes.
Mondays in person at the Health and Healing Collective in Leongatha.
