Every parent who has experienced the loss of a baby should be saying this.

Because it wasn’t your fault.

And carrying blame can instead manifest into anxiety, low mood and other mental health problems.

If you or someone you know is struggling and you would like to discuss further how I can help you, please get in touch.

These terrifying statistics show the harsh reality of what the trauma of losing a baby can do.

If PTSD is not dealt with quickly, symptoms can manifest themselves years later.

Symptoms include:

Flashbacks
Difficulty sleeping
Panic attacks
Increased anger
Heightened emotions

Rewind Therapy is a non invasive specialist technique that helps you to overcome PTSD without disclosing any details of the trauma to your therapist.

More information can be found via the website www.lifecare counselling.com/rewind-therapy

If you or someone you know is struggling, please reach out so we can give you the help you need.

Whether it’s a review on Google or testimonial on LinkedIn like this one, your words help others find the support they need.

The emotions of a pregnancy after loss are often completely underestimated and misunderstood.

Specialist counselling to support you through your pregnancy can help you to make sense of your feelings and find peace on your journey.

If you’re currently pregnant after experiencing loss and struggling, please get in touch. We are here to help you.

Why do we need 7–9 hours of sleep every night?

Sleep isn’t just rest - it’s repair. During those 7–9 hours, your brain and body will:

-Process emotions and reduce stress hormones
-Regulate mood and boost mental resilience
-Support memory and decision making
-Balance hormones that affect mood, appetite and energy.
-Strengthen the immune system.

For women navigating grief, especially after baby loss, sleep plays a huge part in helping your mental health.

If you’re not feeling supported though and finding things difficult, don’t be afraid to reach out.

I am here if you need me.

💜Jo Yates and the team from Yatesy Boxing Lab fundraised to donate an Abi Cot in George’s memory to Southend University Hospital.

💜 Jo said “This came today. A certificate, a lovely letter and most importantly, a gold heart from the plaque on the Abi cooling cot that has been donated in baby George's memory from his "YATESY BOXING LAB" family and friends. Thank you to everyone who made this happen, you have given a family the chance to spend precious time with their baby before having to say goodbye. So to everyone who donated, thank you again, you lot are the best.”

During Women’s Health Week, we’re reminded how self care is so important for our mental health.

A fantastic act of self care is learning a new skill.

And this week I learnt knitting! A rhythmic, and quiet hobby that can promote mindfulness and emotional wellbeing.

It doesn’t have to be something hard. In fact learning something new can give you a confidence boost within you that can really boost your mental health.

What will you learn this week?

25% of women suffer with their mental health during pregnancy or during the first year after giving birth.

However, for women who have suffered pregnancy loss prior to a rainbow pregnancy and birth, they are more likely to experience maternal anxiety and depression.

As a rainbow baby specialist, I help women overcome their fears, address their worries and support them throughout their rainbow pregnancy during a potentially triggering and emotional journey.

If you need to talk to a specialist counsellor, I am here when you are ready.

In my work supporting women through baby loss and maternal mental health challenges, I’ve seen first hand the power animals can have on our healing.

Pet therapy can be incredibly helpful to us all and not just trained therapy animals, but our own pets at home. The everyday healing that comes from stroking soft fur, being greeted with joy, or simply not having to explain your pain to anyone to be understood.

Pets remind us to come back to the moment. They can help calm our nervous system. They also give comfort when the world may feel heavy.

Do you have a pet that has helped you on your healing journey? 💜

Quiet days are not wasted days. Here’s why…

This bank holiday weekend, while many are making plans and filling their time, you might be moving slower or simply trying to get through the day.

Please know that rest is not laziness, and quiet days are not wasted days. If you have no plans and this weekend feels heavy, you’re not alone.

Whether you’re remembering, grieving, or just surviving — be gentle with yourself. You are doing great, even if it sometimes doesn’t feel like it.

Always here if you need me.
