Therapy for Postpartum Anxiety and Depression
Emotional Changes of New Parenthood
Becoming a parent is a huge adjustment of identity and relationships, and brings about a new host of fears around raising a child. Sometimes, thoughts and feelings after birth are overwhelming, bleak, and even scary.
These experiences are more common than many parents realize, even though they’re rarely talked about openly. Support can make a meaningful difference for you and your family.
Postpartum Depression and Anxiety Can Look Like:
→ Feeling overwhelmed
→ Feeling guilty due to high self-expectations
→ Feeling empty and numb
→ Unwanted, upsetting thoughts that feel out of character
→ Doubting your ability to parent well
→ Fear of judgment from others regarding thoughts and feelings
→ Not feeling “bonded” with the baby
→ Difficulty sleeping, even when tired
These experiences can feel isolating, but support can help.
Supportive Postpartum Therapy
Postpartum depression and anxiety therapy can provide tools, support, and space to heal so you can move from surviving to truly feeling steady and supported (yes, your little one is always welcome to join appointments).
With extensive training in perinatal mood disorders and mental health through Postpartum Support International, I use evidence-based therapy approaches to support clients through the full range of perinatal mood challenges.
As a mother myself, I understand how vulnerable this season can be and aim to provide a space where you can share hard truths without fear of judgment.
Caring for yourself is an important part of caring for your child. When you’re ready, get in touch with me to help you feel more like yourself again.
