Wendy Martin
I have specialised in miscarriage and fertility counselling for thirty years. As well as working in private practice, I take referrals from the leading Recurrent Miscarriage Clinic in Bristol and so I have extensive experience in this field.
You many never have sought professional help before, but no doubt the overwhelming feelings you’re experiencing after one or more pregnancy losses have led you to seek support. Miscarriage and other pregnancy loss is often not talked about openly, so this is where counselling can come in.
You may just need a sensitive listening ear or perhaps help with ways to cope as you go through the grief and heartache of a pregnancy loss (or multiple losses); or it may be helpful to talk through what happened and the impact this is having on you – physically, emotionally, on your relationship and on your social and family life. Whatever you’re going through I can offer warmth, kindness, care, empathy and understanding.
I can support you, both individually and/or as a couple, as you deal with the shock, sorrow, heartbreak and disappointment of your loss (or losses) and the subsequent anxiety and worry you may have about trying to conceive again.
