Birth Reflections
Launching January 2026
A birth reflection is a gentle and supportive space to be heard, to revisit and make sense of your experience, whether it was powerful, complicated, beautiful, or all of the above. Our session invites you to reflect with curiosity and compassion. This offering is for you if you're seeking clarity, closure, or simply a safe space to explore the story of your birth, in your own time and in your own words.
Birth reflections can help you:
Feel validated, seen, and understood
Release or shift emotions that may have been held in or brushed aside
Make sense of medical decisions or unexpected outcomes
Reclaim your voice and agency
Integrate your experience, whether recent or many years ago
Support healing, confidence, and connection moving forward
People often describe these sessions as grounding, reflective, powerful, safe and supportive. They leave feeling lighter, clearer, with a connection and clarity to their story and to themselves. This is for anyone who has given birth, no matter how long ago. Your story is worth telling.
The power of talking about your birth.
Birth can leave a deep imprint on the body, the mind, and the heart. Whether it unfolded in alignment with your hopes or took an unexpected path, the experience often lingers in ways we don’t always recognise.
Talking about your birth helps make sense of what happened. It allows you to name the parts that felt empowering, confusing, or difficult. When we speak our stories out loud, especially in a safe and non-judgemental space, we begin to process what may have been overwhelming in the moment.
This is not about rewriting history or forcing resolution. It’s about honouring your experience and finding meaning in it. Talking can bring release. It can restore a sense of agency. And it can support healing — so you can carry your story with greater understanding and softness.
Your birth matters.
And your voice matters in the telling of it.
Who is a birth reflection for?
A birth debrief is for anyone who has felt that an experience of birth, either their own or a person you supported. These sessions are designed to move at your pace, with care and respect for what feels safe to explore.
Do you want to:
explore birth experiences whether recent or years ago
prepare for an upcoming or future birth
make sense of how the birth happened
understand your current responses to the story
unpack and understand medical decisions
unpack and understand your own choices throughout the process
You’re not expected to arrive with a clear story or questions. Sometimes this space is you talking and telling your story from start to end and other times it’s more organic and you might speak about particular parts of your experience that are remaining with you in an unresolved or unclear way.
What does a birth reflection involve?
In your session, you can expect:
An introduction and an offer to ground into the space
A calm, supportive space where you can speak freely
Opportunity to sit with emotions, to tend to your physical experience of what is happening as you tell your story
Gentle, non-clinical guidance to help unpack your experience
Time to explore what happened and how it felt; physically, emotionally, and relationally
The option to talk through medical notes, timelines, or decisions if helpful
A focus on your values, voice, feelings and emotional wellbeing
Practical tools or follow-up suggestions for ongoing support if needed
You don’t need to remember every detail. This is a space for you to be met with kindness, curiosity, and compassion — wherever you are in your journey.
