Mind the Mother

I’m Laura

Mind the Mother has been created by Laura Abba, a mother of 2 children, living in South London. In essence, it is a Maternal Mental Health service, that has started after seeing how mothers at some point during motherhood, or even from pregnancy, they feel lost and have serious struggles.

Importantly, she has experienced it at first hand, what strong feelings of being overwhelmed can do personally and to a family when caring for 2 young kids.

Without a doubt, Motherhood is a game-changer, reconciling a new identity can be challenging. And because we live in a society where we work in a reactive way, having the opportunity to be proactive is a benefit for the long term.

Laura Abba is a Cognitive Hypnotherapist & Mindset Coach working in London, Surrey & Online. She is offering her expertise in the maternal mental health field, focusing on empowering women to have a positive pregnancy and motherhood experience.

Most women will come to Mind the Mother to work on positive childbirth through hypnobirthing, maybe because they are scared of giving birth or even suffering from tokophobia. However, the support that can be provided for pregnant women goes beyond birth. Consider the preparation to one of the major shifts in your identity you will ever experience in your life.
