Hannah Lehrain

I’m Hannah, a BABCP-accredited psychotherapist in Bristol specialising in supporting parents after miscarriage, baby loss, and birth trauma. I help people reclaim a life that feels meaningful after loss, using evidence-based approaches that actually work.

I know that pregnancy loss can leave you feeling like a stranger to yourself. The scan photos you cannot bear to look at. The panic when someone mentions another pregnancy. The grief that catches you off guard months later. The sense that you failed at something your body was supposed to just do. It is heavy, and it is so common, even though nobody talks about it.

I work part time in an NHS Maternal Mental Health Service and part time in private practice in central Bristol and online across the UK. This is not a side interest for me. It is what I do every day.

I use EMDR, CBT, Interpersonal Psychotherapy, and Prolonged Grief Disorder Therapy. All are recommended by NICE for trauma and loss. My approach is grounded in compassion and common sense. No jargon. Just proper, evidence-based therapy at a pace that feels manageable.

I also support parents navigating pregnancy after loss, and I have a particular interest in working with partners as well as mothers.

I offer a free 15-minute telephone consultation. You do not need to have everything figured out before we speak.
