Catherine Evans

Counsellor and Hypnotherapist. I am a Professional Member of the National Hypnotherapy Society (MHS) and an Accredited Member of the National Counselling Society (MNCS).

I am based in Reading, Berkshire although also work online providing support for anyone who has experienced birth trauma. I have 10 years of experience of working within a maternity setting as both a nurse and a midwife and in that time have developed a real interest in working with women (and men) who feel, for whatever reason, that they need to explore their birth experience further or are daunted by the prospect of parenthood.

I am able to utilize my obstetric knowledge together with my counselling skills to help parents explore their feelings regarding the birth and parenthood and manage their expectations. The birth process and parenthood is a life-changing event and I believe that all women have the right to be heard.

I work with a number of issues within this area including:

• Birth reflection

• Birth trauma

• Ante/Post-natal depression

• Dealing with fears and phobias including fear of childbirth, hospitals, needles etc.

• Bereavement (including miscarriage)

• Anxiety related to pregnancy, childbirth or parenthood.

I offer a safe place for you to explore your feelings regarding any aspect of fertility, pregnancy, birth or parenthood.
