Suzanne St. John Smith
Counsellor/Therapist, M.A., M.A. (Psych.) FEA, C.C.C Relationship and Family Therapist; Life Coach
When working with clients experiencing postpartum depression, I offer a compassionate, supportive space to process the complex emotions that often accompany this period — from sadness, guilt, and overwhelm to loss of identity and connection. Together, we work to reduce shame, rebuild a sense of self, and strengthen both emotional and practical supports. My approach integrates gentle exploration, psychoeducation, and evidence-based strategies to help clients regulate mood, restore balance, and reconnect with themselves and their baby. Above all, my goal is to ensure they feel seen, understood, and not alone in their healing.
