Perinatal Therapy Group: Support for New & Expecting Parents
Pregnancy, birth and early parenthood can bring huge emotional changes — and no parent should feel like they have to navigate it alone. The Perinatal Therapy Group at Marsden Health offers a supportive, safe space for expecting and new parents across Wollongong and the Illawarra to connect, share experiences and access professional mental health support.
Workshop Details:
When: Fridays 9:30am - 11am
Where: Weekly online sessions (telehealth)
Cost: $50 gap fee with Medicare
Small group (4–10 participants)
10 sessions, 60–90 minutes each
Suitable for women who are pregnant or up to 24 months postpartum and experiencing mild to moderate emotional challenges such as anxiety, overwhelm, or low mood. Babies are welcome.
The perinatal period — pregnancy through to the first year after birth — can significantly impact emotional wellbeing for both mums and families. Accessing support early can help parents feel more connected, supported and confident during this major life transition.
