The decision to start a family can pack dramatic change and steep learning curves into a short span of time. Family-building also impacts our relationships with our friends, family, and spouses/partners. Worry, sadness, and other mixed emotions are not uncommon during these changes, yet they are often unexpected and left unspoken. For some, this may lead to deeper feelings like depression, anxiety, or negative coping patterns. Sessions will focus on understanding and managing these feelings, then creating actions for positive and sustainable change.
