26. Gentle parenting, postnatal depression and looking after yourself, with Crystal from the Gentle Counsellor

The Australian Breastfeeding Podcast

In this episode I chat with Crystal. Crystal is the owner of the Gentle Counsellor and is an experienced practitioner in mental health and parenting, especially postnatal health. We discuss the types of mental health issues new mums and dads may come up against, including postnatal depression, anxiety and rage. Crystal goes through the mental health signs we need to look out for as new parents, and what we can do to ensure we are looking after ourselves during this period. We also have a super interesting chat all things gentle parenting and the strategies we both put in place with our children! Especially in the current climate we are living this is a must listen!!
