• overwhelmed by the mental load of motherhood
• anxious, stressed or constantly overthinking
• guilty whenever you do something for yourself
• like you’ve lost part of your identity
• lonely, even though you’re rarely alone
• exhausted from trying to meet everyone’s needs
• unsure of who you are outside being a mum
• affected by difficult experiences around pregnancy or birth
• struggling with relationships since becoming a parent
• like everyone thinks you’re coping — but you’re really not

You don’t need to have everything figured out before you come to counselling.
