Before Baby Comes: A Prenatal Therapy Package

Bringing a baby into the world is exciting, beautiful, and also a big change. Many parents-to-be notice a swirl of emotions during pregnancy: joy and anticipation mixed with stress, worry, and uncertainty. This package was created to give you a gentle space to prepare emotionally for this next chapter, both as individuals and as partners.

What's Included

  • Two 50-minute individual therapy sessions for the birthing parent to explore your unique experiences, feelings, and hopes for parenthood

  • One 80-minute couples therapy session to come together, strengthen your connection, and create a shared vision for life with baby

  • Offered at a 25% reduced rate to support you in making this investment in your family’s well-being

​

You’ll meet with a therapist who specializes in perinatal mental health, get support tailored to your experience, and leave knowing that someone’s already in your corner — now and if you need to reach back out postpartum.

How This Package Can Support You

  • Space to process the changes and emotions that come with pregnancy

  • Tools to ease stress, anxiety, and overwhelm

  • Deeper understanding of each other’s needs and expectations as parents

  • A plan for emotional support and connection once baby arrives

Package FAQ
1. When should I have the appointments?
We recommend coming in for your individual sessions once during your second trimester and once toward the end of pregnancy (around 35 weeks). The couples session should happen between the two of these.

2. Why should I come during pregnancy instead of after?
Starting therapy before baby arrives helps you feel grounded and supported. It can also make the early postpartum months feel less overwhelming and give you confidence in navigating the changes ahead. Essentially, it's more of a preventative effort to catch any "red flags" earlier. 

3. Do I have to pay for the three sessions all at once?
Nope! You'll get a 25% discount on these three sessions, each time you come.

4. What if I don't have time to get them all in before baby is born?
That's okay! We'll move forward with appointments at full price (if you need them!). There is no back charge for not completing the three appointments. We just want to support people through the pregnancy & childbirth process. 

5. What if I don't have a spouse for the couples therapy session?
That's okay! We recommend bringing in someone who will be a key support for you during your "couples therapy" session. This will just shift the focus of that session to be more on how they can support you through this transition. If you don't have anyone you feel comfortable doing this with, you'll get the third 50-minute individual session with the 25% discount. 

6. What will be the focus of the sessions?
Session 1 (Individual Session) — getting to know you, your support system, and what you're like at baseline. Answering questions like:
  • What are you like when you're feeling good?
  • What habits help you feel this way?
  • Who are your support people?
​
Session 2 (Couples Session) — getting to know you as a couple, how you're both feeling, and working on how to communicate & connect postpartum.
​
Session 3 (Individual Session) — hear more about how pregnancy has been overall, break down how you're feeling about labour & baby coming shortly, getting to know what you're like during a more exhausting period, and identifying red flags to watch for in yourself during the postpartum period that might be a sign you're struggling. 
​
This isn't about being "perfectly prepared."
It’s about slowing down, checking in with yourselves and each other, and building a strong, compassionate foundation for your family’s next chapter.
