Reproductive & Birth Trauma
Difficult reproductive or birth experiences can leave lasting emotional effects. Whether you’ve experienced pregnancy loss, infertility treatment, medical complications, or a distressing birth, therapy offers space to process what happened and how it continues to affect you.
What happened may be over, but it may not feel over for you. You may find yourself replaying parts of the experience, feeling on edge, or struggling to feel safe and confident moving forward. Medical appointments, reminders, or thoughts about a future pregnancy or birth may bring up difficult emotions.
An experience can feel distressing even when others describe the outcome as positive. You don’t need to label what happened as trauma to seek support..
