Christina Young, BACP Therapist - Registered Member MBACP #399386

I'm a qualified person centred counsellor, registered member of BACP (British association of counselling and psychotherapy) and member of BICA (British infertility counselling association) supporting people with grief,anxiety, depression, and loss. I have a special interest in supporting anyone affected by infertility (primary or secondary), planning, beginning or ending the process of fertility treatment and also people who have suffered baby loss. These can leave you feeling isolated and alone in your journey, complex thoughts can come up and counselling can help to recognise and normalise the feelings of grief and loss, help to prepare for feelings of lack of control and to express your fears.
Losing a baby at any stage , miscarriage, still birth or after birth is traumatic and can bring up a multitude of painful feelings and loss of future hopes and dreams. I offer a supportive space for you to express , to talk and explore what is going on for you.

Each person's journey is unique and I offer you a non-judgmental place to express and explore difficult feelings such as anger, envy, isolation, stress, uncertainty and fear.
Different aspects of your life may be affected such as financial worries, work, family relationships and friendships.

Counselling can provide you a safe space to talk, a place to pause and get some understanding of what you are feeling and about what is happening, to help you gain insight and to cope.

Whilst I can't take away all the pain talking in a supportive space can help to reduce the trauma and painful emotions and feelings of isolation.

I also work with a charitable organisation that supports those affected by fertility and pregnancy related mental health and baby loss.
