Meet Dr Rosanna Pajak

I’m a Clinical Psychologist with a specific focus on perinatal mental health – pregnancy, birth and postpartum. I’m also a busy working mum: I divide my time between running my own private practice and looking after my two beautiful, wild little boys.

Working with so many new mothers, I have developed a deep understanding of the emotional impact it has when birth doesn’t go to plan. 

A disappointing or out-of-control birth experience makes the transition to parenthood even more complicated. It can make it harder to find your feet as a new parent, feel confident and competent and actually enjoy the process of figuring out your new relationship with your baby.

Why The Birth Healing Collective

As a psychologist, I see how valuable it is to be able to talk through a distressing birth experience and work through the connected feelings together. I help parents make room for difficult feelings, respond to emotional distress and adjust unhelpful beliefs so they can begin to move forward feeling lighter.

I also noticed that mothers often came to me when they were thinking about having another baby and struggling to cope with the idea of giving birth again. It can be challenging to even contemplate another pregnancy if your last birth was complicated – but I have seen that it is very possible to prepare emotionally and practically for a better experience next time.  I love supporting parents to feel calm, confident and empowered as they move into another pregnancy and towards their next birth.

With long waiting lists for individual therapy and an increasing sense of the possibilities of online communities, The Birth Healing Collective is my way of bringing much-needed psychological support to more parents. I’m here to support this community to heal from their difficult birth experiences, move forward and live a life of deep connection and joy.
