Princess Kate chose Adelaide Cottage as a "deliberate" place for recuperation, a health expert exclusively told GB News.
The Princess of Wales underwent planned abdominal surgery at the London Clinic last month, and is now resting at her four-bedroom cottage in Windsor.
According to Kensington Palace, Kate, 42, will not return to working duties until at least after Easter.
Sophie Cress, a licensed therapist and mental health expert, spoke exclusively to GB News to explain how the mother-of-three is handling her recovery journey at Adelaide Cottage.

She said: "Any surgery, no matter what kind, will inevitably present both emotional and physical obstacles. Given Kate's prominence within the Royal Family, these problems are certainly more pressing in her instance.
"Her position's demands, scrutiny and public attention might have a substantial negative effect on her psychological health while she recovers.
"From a psychological perspective, it's critical to acknowledge that surgery is a major source of physical and emotional stress.
"When the body is traumatised, people frequently feel a variety of emotions, such as vulnerability, anxiety, and even a lack of control.

According to the health expert, the Princess of Wales is handling her "recuperation process with tenacity".
Cress added: "She may have made a deliberate attempt to establish a healing-promoting atmosphere by coming back to Adelaide Cottage, her family's secret sanctuary.
"Assuring mental stability and a sense of security, having family and comfortable surroundings around can be quite beneficial during the healing process."

Cress continued: "The stated interaction with family and friends suggests a constructive coping strategy.

"It is possible to reduce feelings of loneliness and promote a sense of understanding and belonging by confiding in trusted others about one's experiences, worries, and advancement."
