Welcoming a new baby brings immense joy—but it can also lead to emotional challenges that many mothers don’t expect. If you're feeling low, anxious, detached, or overwhelmed after giving birth, you're not alone. At the American Wellness Center in Dubai, we offer caring, professional support for women adjusting to motherhood and its emotional demands.
Who This Is For
This service is ideal for women in Dubai who are:
- Struggling with low mood or anxiety after childbirth
- Finding it hard to bond with their baby or enjoy early motherhood
- Feeling overwhelmed by the demands of parenting
- Experiencing guilt, shame, or self-doubt as a new mother
- Recovering emotionally after a difficult birth or traumatic delivery
Recognizing these feelings is the first step—professional support can help you find emotional balance and clarity during this major life transition.
