It’s a space where you can speak freely about the uncertainty, fear, or sadness that can accompany this period, without shame or judgment. At TCAPC, our perinatal therapy near you will meet you where you are.
Postpartum Counselling for Emotional Support & Healing

Frequently Asked Questions
How soon after giving birth should I start therapy?
There’s no right or wrong time. Some clients begin before or during pregnancy, others a few weeks or months postpartum. If you’re struggling or feeling off, now is a good time to start.
What if I’m not sure whether what I’m feeling is serious?
You don’t need to have it “all figured out” to come to therapy. If you’re feeling stuck, low, or overwhelmed, it’s worth exploring.
What happens in a typical session?
Your therapist will listen, ask questions, and work with you to understand what’s going on and how to help. You set the pace.
Can I bring my baby to in-person sessions?
We understand the logistics of early parenting. Let us know what you need, and we’ll do our best to accommodate.
