THE PERINATAL WELLNESS PRACTICE
“Every mother deserves the chance to flourish”
What Can Therapy Do For You?
Psychological therapy focuses on transforming minds, relationships and lives in a manner that is meaningful and aligns with your values. It does so by offering a reflective space to explore and find ways to manage and resolve difficult thoughts and feelings. This includes those that might result from difficulties in your environment, interpersonal dynamics with others and adverse life experiences.
The process of seeking therapy can be filled with hope for the possibility of experiencing healthy changes. However, it can often be a daunting prospect especially if you are unsure of what to expect. Whatever this evokes in you, seeking therapy is a courageous step and I am passionate about offering clarity and being alongside you during what can be an uncertain but equally liberating process.
About Me
I am Orin Onabanjo, a chartered counselling psychologist with 14 years experience in the mental health and psychotherapy field. I have worked extensively as a therapist offering support to women and mothers who are experiencing a range of mental health difficulties with a particular focus on perinatal mental health. My work also involves delivering perinatal wellness webinars, workshops, and facilitating psychoeducation and therapeutic groups on developing emotional resillience. I am also experienced in offering clinical supervision to trainee psychologists to help them develop as an autonomous practitioner. My services also extend to working as a lived experience wellbeing consulatant for experts by experience who chose to bravely share their stories at conferences and other maternal health events to ensure trauma informed care.
Outside of the above, I am also extremely passionate about tackling health inequalities in maternity and mental health services for mothers from ethnic minority backgrounds through outreach work, service audit and evaluation and contributing to policy development to address the disparities seen in the perinatal field.
