Westmead Private Hospital has engaged the services of a Clinical Psychologist to assist with our pre and postnatal mums if the need arises.
This service is offered by Rebecca Wheeler from RWA Psychology – Family Matters. Rebecca is a clinical psychologist with a special interest in supporting parents with their experiences of parenting – from contemplating conception, pregnancy & birth through to adjusting to both the joys and demands of parenting.
Rebecca works with parents who simply need support during this period as well as those with stronger needs including birth trauma, perinatal loss, perinatal anxiety and depression and parent-infant relationships. She has over 20 years’ experience and is the principal psychologist and Director of RWA Psychology. Rebecca has a team of psychologists working with her, providing both perinatal support as well as for children, adolescents, adults and couples.
