NEW AND TRANSITIONING PARENTS

our areas of support

The transition into parenthood can be one of the most rewarding yet challenging experiences. Some days, you might feel elated and totally in love with your child/children/partner, and other days, you might feel lonely, overwhelmed, and frustrated.

It’s possible to feel on top of the world one moment, and in the next, want to retreat and give up. Parenthood can be something you love and find incredibly difficult at the same time.

Recognising these dualities is powerful.

OUR APPROACH

At Better Days Counselling, we understand that parenting is far from the picture-perfect experience often portrayed on social media or in societal norms.

Being able to openly share what you’re going through can help normalise those feelings and offer some relief. Together, we’ll explore ways to navigate this new phase and find what works best for you and your family.

We’ll be right back!
