Perinatal psychology practice in north-east London

Welcome to Forest Psychology

I’m Dr Kate Tangri, an experienced consultant clinical psychologist who is dedicated to supporting the mental health and wellbeing of mums, dads and parents-to-be.

I have worked as a psychologist in perinatal mental health for the past 12 years, supporting clients with the challenges associated with conception, pregnancy, giving birth and the early years of parenting.

Based in NE London, I offer both in-person and online therapy sessions to enable you to make positive changes, process difficult events, strengthen relationships and develop a more compassionate relationship with yourself.

If you have any questions or would like to book a session, please get in touch.

How perinatal psychology can help

The ‘perinatal period’ is the time from preconception, through pregnancy, birth, and into early parenthood. Perinatal psychologists work with people in this time period to support emotional wellbeing and help alleviate emotional distress and trauma.  

If you are pregnant or have a baby, a perinatal psychologist will also pay close attention to the relationship between you and your child to support strengthening the early emotional connection between parent and baby.

Perhaps you’re having difficulties conceiving, are concerned about giving birth or feel that you’re not parenting in the way you’d hoped. Maybe you are feeling depressed and anxious as a new parent, or struggling to recover from a traumatic birth.

If you are struggling with conception, pregnancy or life as a parent, perinatal psychology can help and support you.

“After our sessions I finally feel like I can enjoy being a parent. I’m coping so much better with the hard days and I am generally much kinder to myself”
