Parent-Infant Video-Feedback

Being a parent can be a rewarding and an exciting time, however, the unexpected feelings and challenges that can arise are often left unspoken. Support in the right place can lead to transformations for the parent, child and family.

  • Attachment difficulties
  • Antenatal and postnatal anxiety
  • Antenatal and postnatal depression
  • Bipolar affective disorder
  • Maternal Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
  • Perinatal loss
  • Post-partum psychosis
  • Re-emergence of childhood issues
  • Relationship difficulties
  • Transition to parenthood
  • Trauma (birth complex trauma)
