On this week’s episode of PSS in Conversation With, we are joined by Dr Katie — a chartered psychologist with 20+ years’ experience across psychology, education and wellness. She shares how a severe hyperemesis pregnancy became a pivotal turning point, shaping her move into holistic practice focused on generational healing. We discuss: the sensory overload of HG for highly sensitive and neurodivergent people; anxiety, hypervigilance and PTSD-type symptoms (including thoughts of termination); the role of hormones across pregnancy and perimenopause; and what compassionate, practical support looks like — from safe therapeutic spaces to peer support and specialist HG counselling. Dr Katie reflects on hospital admissions, medication decisions, isolation, and what actually helps families and clinicians respond better.Content note: mentions suicidal thoughts and termination.If you need support: Pregnancy Sickness Support offers a helpline, peer support and HG-informed counselling.Visit www.pregnancysicknesssupport.org.uk
