Support and Services York

Every birthing person should have information and support to experience birth and parenthood in the way that they choose

My name is Mel and All Things Birth & Beyond is here to provide a safe & trusted organisation for you to access any service that you could possibly want or need in preparing for and welcoming your baby into the world.

Having a baby is about so much more than just Labour & Birth, & there are many moments along the journey where support can make all the difference.

Our services are designed to provide exactly that tailored support, from engaging in empowered online programmes to hiring a Doula, establishing optimal feeding, getting to grips with new-born sleep, postnatal recovery, & even meal delivery or pamper packages for the 4th trimester when self-care & healing is so vitally important.

Postnatal support, especially if your birth has not gone to plan, can make all the difference in your physical & emotional recovery. We offer a bespoke Birth Trauma Recovery service that considers your unique experience & supports you in your wellbeing journey.

Your wellness is our priority

INFORMED + SUPPORTED = EMPOWERED

Shared-Care Birth Doula Services
Online Programmes & Community
Motherhood Mentorship
Transformational Breastfeeding Coaching & Lactation Consultancy

I am Ashley, a psychotherapist working online and specialising in relationships. I am a mother to 3 and have a lot of experience working with couples who are in the early years of parenthood and struggling to navigate the ever- changing couple relationship.

I work with individuals and couples with a broad range of issues.

​

My superpower is my open and honest approach to therapy and my ability to put you at ease; I endeavour to provide a warm, nurturing, and confidential environment to support you in exploration, discovery and resolving some of the challenging areas in your life which can help bring you back to your own rhythm.

Susan Bradley is the founder of For Modern Mothers. A space for modern mums to find real support and to find and reconnect to themselves.

I offer a range of services to empower mothers, all are non-judgemental and absolutely confidential. I have specialist training to help you find relief from a birth injury (tears, episiotomies, prolapse, incontinence, ongoing pain or nerve damage). I am an accredited practitioner to help bring you relief from birth trauma, postnatal trauma or fertility issues (like miscarriage or stillbirth). I also offer a compassionate birth listening and reflecting service.

I also coach mothers of all backgrounds on how to navigate the wide ranging challenges of modern motherhood. From exploring your new identity – who the heck are you now?, returning to work (or not), finding a work/motherhood balance, confidence and self-esteem, starting a new business, motherhood guilt, or any other challenges you have. Because becoming a mother is the perfect time to re-evaluate your life, release old thought patterns and really get to know who you really and truly are. I want to help you reconnect to yourself, to thrive and grow as a mother and to have a more fulfilled and happy life.

My services include:

• Birth or Postnatal Trauma relief and processing
• Birth story listening, reflecting & debriefing
• Birth Injury Recovery Practitioner
• Accredited Coach, specialising in Mothers empowerment coaching

Are you feeling sad, worried, anxious, stressed, or just simply overwhelmed by everything life is throwing your way?

It can feel scary and lonely in challenging times but I can offer hope…

I specialise in person centred counselling which means I offer a safe, friendly, and supportive space where together we can explore what is going on for you, enabling you to gain a better understanding of how you feel and function in your world.

My therapy style is warm and non- judgmental, encouraging personal growth and empowering you to be able to make the changes that feel right and comfortable to improve your wellbeing.

I am a member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy offering confidential face to face counselling for adults in York and virtually anywhere in the UK.

I offer a free initial no obligation consultation to explore how counselling might help you and how we might work together to ensure I am the right counsellor for you.

Park Psychology Services provide specialist autism and ADHD assessments for both children and adults, and we also undertake cognitive and learning disability assessments. Alongside this, we also offer therapeutic support for people following a diagnosis, or for those who self-identify as neurodivergent.

Our team includes Clinical Psychologists, Speech and Language Therapists, and Consultant Psychiatrists. We are professionals who have worked both privately and within NHS services for a number of years. We also have personal experience of neurodivergence and know how difficult the process of seeking and having an assessment can be. We complete NICE Guideline compliant assessments and provide detailed reports that include comprehensive recommendations. For children, we are able to refer you onto our private Consultant Psychiatrist if you wish to explore medication options following an ADHD diagnosis. You are also able to share the report with NHS services to seek this support, too.

It matters to us that people are able to access the support that is right for them, and we are proud to be able to provide much-needed assessment and therapeutic support to our community. If you think we might be able to help, please get in touch with us.

If you are worried about your child or young person’s mental wellbeing, then we are here with the support your family needs.

We understand that seeking therapy can be daunting and that taking the first step can be challenging. At The Retreat Clinics we have over 200 years’ experience in supporting children, young people and adults with their mental health and neurodiversity. Our team of trained experts will work together with you and your family to design a bespoke and flexible treatment that is tailored to work best for the mental health needs of your child or young person.

We provide a range of therapy for children and young people aged 5 to 17 at our welcoming centre in Strensall, York, which has been purposely created to make therapy a safe, fun, and engaging experience for all children and our facilities include a kitchen, chill-out rooms, a sensory integration room and more.

We also provide therapy for both children and adults at our clinics in York, Manchester and also online, so you can access therapy from the comfort of your own home if you need.
