It is estimated that between 15 to 20 of Canadian pregnancies end in miscarriage, according to the Society of Obstetricians and Gynecologists of Canada. A miscarriage can be profoundly troubling for a couple because as soon as you know you are pregnant, you begin to form an emotional attachment to your fetus. Some couples have been trying to have a child for many years and are devastated when the pregnancy fails. Couples can also find themselves in limbo, as they have geared up to become a parent, only to have this possibility ripped away.
An abortion is another type of pregnancy loss that can have lasting consequences for women. Guilt, shame, grief, loss, and feelings of abandonment can surface later in life. Finding a therapist who appreciates the depth of despair and anxiety associated with these losses is useful. Book today for a consultation if you are experiencing this type of loss.

Postpartum depression (PPD) is a serious mental health condition that can affect new mothers after giving birth. It is characterized by feelings of extreme sadness, anxiety, and fatigue that can interfere with a mother's ability to care for herself and her baby. PPD can manifest in various ways, including mood swings, irritability, trouble bonding with the baby, and feelings of hopelessness. It’s important to understand that postpartum depression is not a sign of weakness, but rather a complex interplay of hormonal, emotional, and environmental factors. Seeking help is crucial, as support from healthcare professionals, family, and friends can lead to effective treatment and recovery. Remember, you are not alone, and reaching out for help is a positive step toward healing.

Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you are experiencing postpartum depression, you may feel sadness, irritability, anxiety, or emotional numbness during a season that others expect to be joyful. You might feel disconnected from your baby, overwhelmed by responsibility, or ashamed that you are not feeling the way you thought you would. Exhaustion, hormonal changes, and the pressure to “hold it together” can intensify what you are already carrying.
At Selah Counselling, we approach postpartum depression with compassion and clinical care. This is not a failure as a mother. It is a treatable condition influenced by biological, emotional, and relational factors. Together, we focus on stabilizing your nervous system, restoring sleep rhythm and daily structure where possible, and gently processing the emotional weight of this transition. When needed, we collaborate with medical providers to ensure comprehensive support. Our goal is to help you regain steadiness, strengthen bonding, and experience this season with greater confidence and hope.

Do you often feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or disconnected since giving birth? Many new parents struggle with sadness, anxiety, or emptiness in ways that can feel confusing or isolating, especially when society tells us we “should” feel joy. You may find yourself carrying heavy emotions while trying to care for your baby and yourself.
These feelings are not a sign of failure—they are natural responses to the intense changes and demands of parenthood. What matters is how you respond when these emotions arise. Together, we can explore your experiences, support your emotional well-being, and help you find ways to feel more grounded, connected, and lighter over time. You are feeling this for a reason. Let’s explore why, and what comes next.
