You don’t have to feel stuck, lost or alone in your parenting journey
It can feel difficult to know how to move forward when you’ve experienced challenges or losses on the way to becoming a parent. Sometimes it’s hard to know how to put the things that have happened in their rightful place. Leaving you feeling stuck, isolated and unsure of what to do next.
I am here to listen and support you, using specialist psychological therapy to help you move forward again.
Better Beginnings provides therapy that is sensitive to your individual needs
I know you want to feel able to move forward in your life after difficult experiences. In order to do that you need a safe place to process what has happened.
You may be battling with infertility, grieving after pregnancy loss, or be reeling from a difficult birth.
Perhaps you are concerned about bonding with your baby or reflecting on your own childhood experiences as you transition to parenthood.
Therapy with me is a safe space to explore all these things and work out the best way forward in your life.
How I can support you
Miscarriage and
Stillbirth
You shouldn't have to struggle alone with grief and trauma after a miscarriage or stillbirth. I provide specialist stillbirth therapy and miscarriage therapy, helping you make sense of your loss, process the trauma and grief, and move towards a life with meaning.
Learn MorePostnatal
Depression and
Anxiety
It is not okay to be lost under the weight of postnatal depression or anxiety. This wasn't how you imagined early parenthood would feel. I understand the challenges you are facing. Postnatal therapy can give you a space to make sense of the anxiety or depression and help you reconnect with yourself and the things that matter.
Learn MoreBirth
Trauma
You shouldn't be left feeling upset when you think about your birth experience. It wasn't your fault, and it wasn't because you didn't try hard enough. I provide birth trauma counselling and birth trauma therapy to help you make sense of what happened, process the traumatic events, and feel safe and connected again.
Learn MoreCounselling for Fertility Issues
No one should be expected to cope with fertility treatment without support, but so often those around you don’t understand the emotional impact and the losses your facing. I offer specialist infertility counselling, creating a safe space to support you through fertility problems, treatment and beyond.

Learn MoreA bit about me
I’m Dr Miriam Inder, a highly experienced Clinical Psychologist specialising in helping people in the perinatal period. Supporting women who are hoping to be mothers, preparing to be mothers or are mothers already.
I started Better Beginnings after experiencing challenges on my own journey to motherhood. It made me reflect on how hard this period can be. Fortunately, I had a group of friends who were there to support me. But if I felt like this, with my psychologist training, how were other parents coping?
I became passionate about using my expertise as a Perinatal Clinical Psychologist to make a positive difference to other mother’s early parenthood experiences.
