The easibirthing® Fertility to Parenthood story since our conception in 1996

Over 25 years ago the concept of easibirthing® was born. It became a labour of love to develop an all-encompassing hypnotherapy and psychotherapy service that would support individuals and couples along their journey to becoming a parent ‘from fertility to parenthood’.

As the service evolved, our reputation grew to become the gold standard in working to help maintain psychological health through the emotional terrain of challenges in fertility and conception, pregnancy, childbirth, antenatal & postnatal mental health, and parenting relationships within the family.

Through our in-person and online gender-inclusive therapy practice we continue to support clients restore and maintain emotional and mental health.

Through our LIVE and ONLINE training school for practitioners and clients, easibirthing® has developed to have global recognition with the gold standard reputation of service to parents, parents-to-be, and practitioners which it has today.

All our training courses are independently accredited by the National College of Hypnosis & Psychotherapy (NCHP).

There are now hundreds of qualified easibirthing® practitioners across the world. Therefore you have the reassurance that anyone using the easibirthing® registered trademark is trained and qualified to work within these specialist areas.

Overcoming Birth Trauma-Time to Heal

Overcoming Birth Trauma-Time to Heal

 22nd Sep 2023

Our founder Sharon Mustard teams up with Katherine Hale of 'Thrive in Motherhood' to look at how there is life beyond birth trauma. Women can, and do overcome this challenging period to enjoy parenting their child in a way that they want to, and may well have expected to.

So many new mothers and fathers talk about feeling they have been robbed of a positive childbirth experience where they felt listened to, acknowledged, valued and in control of their decisions. As social beings, social connectedness is the cornerstone of a birth that truly is the beginning of the next phase in our lives.

What is Matrescence?

The word Matrescence, “The Birth of a Mother”, was coined by Dana Raphae in 1973. Matrescence is defined as the physical, psychological, hormonal, social and emotional changes associated with the transition to motherhood. Despite it being deemed as significant as adolescence it only entered the Cambridge Dictionary for the first time in 2020! This is hardly surprising when the primary focus is very much on the baby during pregnancy, birth and the post-natal period. The mother is often forgotten and rarely ever effectively supported.

Building a relationship with your baby after birth

 12th May 2023

Why is an early relationship with your baby important for a newborn?

The importance of forming an intimate early relationship between mother and baby has been emphasised for several decades. A wealth of research has shown that the quality of the early relationship with your baby can have lasting effects on a child’s development, including socio-emotional adaption, cognitive development, language development, a child’s future mental health. Even a child’s attachment style- the quality of their emotional bond in future relationships.

Our cpd for therapists course on 7 steps to building a successful therapy business "The questions we were encouraged to ask ourselves, along with the group exercises, were very thought provoking and beneficial in the reflection they gave rise to. I found the training to be a refreshing approach to this topic, with plenty of sound advice, new information and interesting additions, all delivered in a relaxed but also engaging way. Sharon's warmth, enthusiasm, and experience in this field really shone through even though we were on Zoom, and I came away feeling very uplifted and more confident about my next steps."

Sharon's training is fantastic. Easy to relate to you but choc-full of information, facts, research. I trained with Sharon in Hypnosis for Fertility, Hypnobirthing, Post Natal support and Tokophobia - I think that speaks for itself!

I also just wanted to say thank you so much you are such an inspiration to me, I actually attended your course as an expectant mum, after having an amazing experience it inspired me to get qualified and try to help others in the way you helped me. And just over 4 years later here I am a fully qualified hypnotherapist and studying counselling. You have genuinely changed my life in so many ways thank you!

Each informative session with Sharon left us feeling empowered, calm and in control - giving us the skills to stay positive and make informed decisions when the time came for labour. Sharon's beautiful and calming voice stayed with me all throughout the birth and it was like having another birthing partner there by my side, along with my husband.
