Registered Social Service Worker, Certified Perinatal & Perimenopause and Menopause Mental Health Professional

At Karin Thoms Counselling Services, I provide a safe, supportive space where women can explore their experiences, understand their emotions, and develop strategies to support their mental well-being.

I specialize in women’s mental health counselling, with focused training and experience in:

  • Perinatal mental health

  • Pregnancy and postpartum adjustment

  • Postpartum depression and anxiety support

  • Pregnancy and infant loss

  • Birth trauma and difficult birth experiences

  • Fertility challenges

  • Perimenopause and menopause mental health

  • Life transitions and identity changes

In a safe, judgment-free counselling space, I provide support for individuals navigating perinatal anxiety, postpartum depression, pregnancy loss, or life transitions in early parenthood, perimenopause and menopause. Together, we’ll explore your challenges, build on your strengths, and create practical strategies tailored to your unique journey toward emotional well-being.

My Approach

Client-Centred: Your goals, needs, and pace guide all aspects of our perinatal and postpartum counselling sessions.

Trauma-Informed: I understand that past experiences shape current challenges and provide support in a sensitive, compassionate way.

Evidence-Based: I use research-supported approaches to promote mental wellness during pregnancy, postpartum, fertility challenges, and early parenthood.

Authentically Human: Combining professional expertise with lived experience and empathy, I create a safe space for healing, growth, and emotional support.
