New Dad Support
Created 9 years ago in Other

From the moment baby arrives, it gets real for us as dads. Many dads are typically under-prepared for new fatherhood - practically, emotionally, psychologically and physically. New fatherhood can be an intensely challenging time.
If you are struggling to adjust to your new role as a dad, bond with your baby, adjust to your new relationship and family dynamic, feeling disconnected, feeling down or lost, firstly, know that you're not alone.
Secondly, my experience tells me that the sooner you act and seek help, the better your chances at minimizing your challenges and finding your way through them - in your self, with your partner and as a dad.
Fact: dads suffer from postpartum depression, too! You might be wondering if this is you. I can help you understand more about what's going on and why, and also guide you towards the support and resources you need to recover.
I zero in with precision insight on your unique situation, circumstances and challenges to understand your struggle and then empower you with the information, skills, strategies and support you need to confidently move forward to be the man, partner and dad you want to and can be.

Source: Clarity Mark Wilhelmsson Dec 31, 2021Amazing call! Not only was Darren's advice experience based, he listened to AND acknowledged my issues which made receiving his feedback on a sensitive issue feel very safe.
It's one thing to know the answer, it's another entirely to share it in a way that leads with respect and understanding. Dads, if you've got questions about this crazy journey of fatherhood - Darren is a wealth of knowledge, experience and perspective. 15 minutes made a huge difference in my day - and in many more to come.
