GILLY PINKHAM COUNSELLING

Parenting
Supporting parents through life’s challenges
Parenting can be one of the most rewarding experiences – but it can also feel overwhelming. Many parents struggle with the emotional and practical challenges that come with raising children, and it’s easy to feel lost or disconnected along the way. This is where counselling can help.
​
I specialise in working with parents, particularly mothers, who are navigating the complex realities of family life. Whether you’re dealing with birth trauma, coping with miscarriage, or wrestling with mum guilt, you don’t have to face these feelings alone. Together, we can create a safe space for you to explore what’s happening beneath the surface.
​
Common concerns I support include:
-
Identity after having children – rediscovering who you are beyond being a parent.
-
Balancing your needs with your children’s – learning to prioritise self-care without guilt.
-
Relationships – managing changes with your partner or your own parents.
-
Work-life balance – easing the transition back to work and finding harmony between career and parenting.
​
Counselling offers time and space to reflect, process, and find clarity. My approach is warm, compassionate, and tailored to your unique situation. Together, we’ll work towards reducing stress, improving emotional wellbeing, and helping you feel more confident in your role as a parent.
