Pregnancy evokes so many emotions. Feelings during the perinatal and postpartum experience can range from excitement and pure joy, ambivalence to fear and panic, and all feelings in between. For some expecting mothers, pregnancy can heighten anxiety and depression making life more difficult to stay present and enjoy their experience.
Sometimes, pregnancies come at a difficult time in life, or are a result of violence which can elicit so many difficult emotions. In this case you may be looking for support as you consider your options between carrying and terminating.
Wherever you are on your journey therapy can provide a safe space for you to explore and process all of your feelings and thoughts.
