Our Services

Counselling

We offer perinatal counselling to women living within the Royal Borough of Greenwich. Our 12-week intervention is based on a recommended therapeutic approach (NICE Guidelines 2014) that has been shown to be effective in:

  • Increasing the well-being of mothers who are experiencing perinatal mental health (PMH) difficulties
  • Increasing confidence in parenting skills
  • Improving the bond between mother and baby (if this is an issue)

 

YoungMumsAid

YoungMumsAid offers free weekly psychotherapy sessions in Woolwich children’s centres, along with a crèche, to pregnant and new mothers aged 16–19. We aim to work alongside young mothers, supporting their emotional well-being and nurturing theirbabies’mental health.

More information

Thank you MumsAid!

Being pregnant for the third time, I was terrified of the depression coming back. Counselling prepared me for the birth of my daughter and brought me closer to my family, especially my husband. Now we are getting married. Thank you MumsAid!

Training

We are committed to challenging the stigma that often surrounds PMH issues and which is responsible for many women not seeking the help and support they need. Providing training to ensure that professionals who work with new mothers are informed and knowledgeable about perinatal mood disorders is therefore a vital part of what we offer.

Supervision

We can provide clinical supervision to anyone working with PMH issues. Please contact us for more details.
