Hello, I’m Catherine Cooper, and I’m an experienced, registered midwife here to help you move on from a birth or other perinatal experience that has left you with symptoms of trauma.
I can also assist you to navigate the maternity services & help you have the future birth you desire.
I work with parents who have experienced trauma during or around the time of the birth of their babies. Using a process called 3 – Step Rewind, I can help to free you from the negative effects of trauma, quickly and easily.
My Story
I qualified as a midwife in 2006. I still work as a midwife and also work with parents to address the symptoms of birth trauma.
I talk with parents, offer birth insights sessions and practical help. Using the TBR 3-Step Rewind for Birth Trauma Resolution, I help them move forward. This fast, simple and effective process can free you from the negative and limiting emotions attached to the memories of their birth.
One of the reasons I chose to be a birthworker was the experiences I had as a birthing mother myself. I have 3 children, and had 3 very different birth experiences.
During my first birth I experienced some physical trauma and believed that once I had healed physically that all would be well. However, I realised during my midwifery training that I was still negatively affected by the birth of my first child. I was not able to completely move on from this until I experienced a 3 Step Rewind. Once I had the Rewind I was able to fully detach all the limiting emotions from my birth memories.
I would love to help you to find your missing joy, your mojo, your motivation, your confidence. I can help you find the calmness or whatever you need to look forward to a bright future with your family.
My Values and Beliefs
I passionately believe that women and their partners should have positive and empowering pregnancy, birth and breastfeeding experiences. I believe these can be the foundations for positive parenting and family relationships.
Sadly, I am aware that having a positive pregnancy and birth experience is not the case for around 30% of women. This is every year, within the current system of mainstream maternity care provision in the UK. I find this totally unacceptable and this is why I do what I do.
Setting people free from the chains of their traumatic experiences gives me joy as I watch them move forward in life, free from the limiting negative emotions.
