One to One Sessions

One–to–one Counselling: Counselling

Individual sessions can be arranged either in the comfort of your own home or Emily's meeting place between Claregalway and Tuam (see directions).

Individual sessions can be uniquely tailored to your own circumstances. The ways in which mothers/parents come usually involve all or a part of the following and may be applicable to you :

  • * You may be busy and want to schedule the classes according to your timetable. In which case the 'Birth Without Fear' package can be brought to you!.
  • * You may be aware of anxieties or  worries and (wisely) wish to look at them before they show up in labour as a complication or unecessary intervention. 
  • * You may have had a difficult/disappointing/traumatic previous birth and need to tell your story to a sympathetic and knowledgeable ear in order to understand it, heal it and make room for the possibility of a beautiful birth the next time.
  • * I have a number of skills that are used in the sessions: E.F.T (Emotional Freedom Therapy), counselling, Birthing From Within debriefing process of difficult births, a motherly ear.

Over time I have developed an intimate knowledge of pregnancy, labour and birth and what a women needs to allow her body to flower in labour. I have found that often women find in our sessions that it wasn't her body that 'let her down' but her circumstances and environment within which she was trying to labour. This can be a big revelation and relief to mothers.
