š¤ Rethinking the Myth of āLoving Every Momentā of Motherhood - with Counsellor Marie Vaile
Marie Vaile is a qualified integrative counsellor based in Barry in the Vale of Glamorgan, supporting clients across Cardiff and the wider Vale. She is registered with a recognised professional counselling body and brings many years of experience from the social care sector and mental health charities. Marie has supported adults of all ages with anxiety, stress, trauma, abuse, and addiction, and has also worked as a substance use counsellor, helping individuals in addiction and recovery develop healthier coping strategies within a warm, non-judgemental space. She has a particular passion for maternal mental health, informed by both professional practice and her own lived experience during pregnancy and after birth, offering compassionate and inclusive counselling to women and parents navigating complex emotions, guilt, shame, or isolation.
In this video, you can discover why the pressure on new mothers to love every second of motherhood is unrealistic, and explore how these expectations can fuel guilt and shame during an already emotionally demanding time.
