What is HG?

'Hyperemesis gravidarum is a condition at the extreme end of the pregnancy sickness spectrum. It affects approximately 3% of pregnancies and is very debilitating for sufferers. HG strongly limits everyday activities; vomiting and/or nausea are severe.' - PSS Website.

Having suffered with this condition myself, I have first hand experience of how devastating this illness can be on a woman's mental health. It's because of my experience of my mental health struggles during and post pregnancy that I specialise in providing a specialist approach for not only sufferers of this illness, but also to the partners and carers of people who have witnessed a loved one going through HG. 

If you are currently suffering and would like to enquire about how counselling may help you to navigate life whilst in the pit of a HG pregnancy, then please get in touch. If you're someone that is supporting and caring for someone with HG and feel lost and unsure how to process your own emotions about your part of this journey, then please get in touch.
