To be parents, to remain a couple - guidance and support for your first year of parenthood and marriage

postpartum couple therapy

Moments of happiness, moments of stress: how do you find balance in the first year of parenthood?

the sleepless nights. The crying that is not always clear. The moments when you stop and ask: "How will we know what our baby really needs? And how will we stay close in the midst of all this?"

The first year of parenthood brings with it exciting and magical moments, but also challenges you never imagined - stress, fatigue, conflicts, and distance that can creep into a relationship.

Couples therapy and parenting support that combine everything you need

The small fights about who gets up at night, the emotional burden and the tension around shared responsibility - all these affect both you as a couple and the atmosphere at home, and your baby feels everything.
 

Why is my service unique?

My service is unique in that it combines parent-baby guidance with couple therapy. It's not "either relationship or parenthood" - it's both. This is how you will find the way to strengthen the partnership between you as parents, while building a calm routine for the baby and the family.

What does my service include?

  • Accompanying and guiding parents of soft babies:

    • Understanding your baby's needs: crying, sleeping, feeding and development.

    • Creating a calm and healthy routine for the whole family.

    • Strengthening your confidence as parents who understand their baby.

  • Couple therapy for first-time parents:

    • Strengthening communication and closeness between the couple.

    • Resolving conflicts related to stress and fatigue.

    • Creating a marital partnership that also has a positive effect on your baby.

What will your life look like after the process?

  • More peace of mind at home: a calm and clear routine that will make it easier for you as parents.

  • A close and strong relationship: you will feel like a team working together again, not like two people fighting.

  • A sense of security: you will feel that you are able to face any challenge - together.

For example, I worked with a couple of parents of a 3-month-old baby. They arrived with daily tensions around the division of responsibilities and felt that they were "losing themselves". After several meetings, we managed to build a routine where each of them felt like a real partner, and the baby also enjoyed a relaxed atmosphere at home.

Why choose this service?

1. A deep understanding of the initial parenting period:

With extensive experience working with parents and couples, I know how complex it is to maintain a strong relationship amid the endless demands of the first year.

2. Holistic solution:

My service combines everything you need in one place - practical guidance for parents, alongside emotional support as a couple.

3. Soft and practical approach:

The process is customized to your needs, whether you are looking for tools to deal with the baby on a daily basis or solutions for emotional closeness in the relationship.

Who is the service suitable for?

  • For new parents who experience difficulty coping with the changes and stress.

  • For couples who feel that their relationship has been eroded during the period of primary parenthood.

  • For those who want to build a stable, calm and loving foundation for their new family.

What does the program include?

  • First meeting - understanding your needs:
    We will start with a conversation where we will identify your main challenges - both as parents and as a couple.

  • Ongoing support - customized tools and support:

  • Parent guidance for babies: understanding needs, creating a routine, emotional care.

  • Couple support: improving communication, resolving conflicts, strengthening the connection.

  • Implementation tasks between sessions:
    So that the changes become a part of your life, you will receive simple exercises to apply at home.

  • Flexibility in meetings:
    Appointments at your home or at the clinic in Kiryat Tivon or online - whatever suits you.

*Duration of a meeting at the clinic / online - about an hour and a half at a cost of NIS 525, similar to a regular couples/individual therapy service.

**Duration of a meeting at your home - about two hours, at a cost of NIS 700, the amount includes my travel to you.

An exciting testimony about a special process

postpartum couple therapy

Sivan came into our lives after we were looking for someone professional to help us after the birth. This is my first birth, I came home from the hospital, after a caesarean section, with a sweet and demanding baby, who suffers a lot from gas.

This is also a birth during the Corona period , where social distancing is maintained, with almost no visitors, except for a nuclear family.

What do we do? How do you shower? How do you relieve gas pains? How do you make a margin in eating? And many more questions and doubts await the beginning of the journey to parenthood.

Sivan came to our house, with a pair of beautiful and receptive blue eyes, got to know us, asked questions, was interested in the family dynamics - and the connection with her was immediate. At each meeting Sivan gave practical tools such as: using a baby carrier, keeping a food diary and more.

I felt that Sivan supports me and empowers me as a new mother, I looked forward to the weekly meeting with her, I liked that she reminded me not to forget myself.

In every meeting I felt that Sivan is a significant woman who is there for me,

And as I write these lines, I can't help but connect with the lyrics of Haim Nachman Bialik's song:

"Take me under your wing

And I have a mother and a sister

And let your bosom be your main shelter

The nest of remote prayers".

Indeed Sivan took me under her wings, and she was like a sister to me, and all this wrapped in a lot of knowledge, professionalism, inclusiveness and wholehearted support.

Thank you very much Sivan
