My area of specialism is parental mental health

---

It goes without saying that the Maternal & Paternal Mental health pages apply to every Mum & Dad, whether you have become a parent through birth, adoption, surrogacy or foster care. But it is important to be aware that adoptive parents can face unique mental health challenges, including post-adoption depression, secondary trauma, and high stress from navigating complex child needs. These are areas I can support with you as you navigate your parenthood journey.
