Counselling & Support

Bereavement Counselling
​​Sadly 1 in 4 woman in South Africa will experience the loss of their baby. Society does not always give these mothers space to grieve properly and many do not find a safe space to talk and to process their loss. Samala Kriedemann provides 1:1 counselling for mothers that have experienced loss as well as couples counselling.

​​Mothers' of Angels
​This is a support group run once a month in the Pretoria East area for mothers' that have experienced miscarriage, stillbirth and infancy death. Sharing ones' story in a safe space with others that truly understand can be very affirming and healing. Samala creates a safe space for these mothers and takes them through a therapeutic process towards peaceful acceptance. 

Birth Debriefing
​Sometimes birth does not go as planned, debriefing allows a women to share her birth story in a safe place.  Allowing you to work through the emotions, releasing the fear, trauma, sadness, guilt or loss so that these emotions are not taken into the next birth.
