Pregnancy and Postpartum Support

Are you worried about how you are feeling?

Stressed and overwhelmed with parenting. Wondering if you made a huge mistake.

Disconnected from your baby.

Scared of your thoughts that your baby and partner would be better off without you.

Needing to check if your baby is breathing, and having a hard time falling asleep.

Feeling unlike yourself and questioning “Is this normal? Am I crazy?”

Compulsively internet searching about your baby.

Feeling ashamed to admit these thoughts and feelings.

Feeling alone.

Pregnancy and Postpartum are huge life adjustments that require care and support for parents.

This is a common experience; you are not alone. You are NOT crazy.

The good news is PMADS are incredibly treatable with professional help.

Learn coping tools and strategies to manage feelings of overwhelm, stress, and guilt.

Examine your learned beliefs and how those can lead to feeling stuck.

Develop self compassion and build confidence in your abilities to become the parent you want to be.

Share your thoughts and feelings in a nonjudgmental space.

I have specialized training to support Prenatal Depression and Anxiety, Postpartum Depression, and Postpartum Anxiety.

I provide maintenance therapy for Postpartum OCD and Postpartum Psychosis.

For the first session, you and the therapist will meet by video for 60 minutes. In this session, you will get to know each other and discuss your goals for therapy. You will decide how often and how long to meet for sessions.
You can bring your stuff to talk about, and the therapist can bring some education and skills to help you towards your goals.
There is no set answer; therapy takes as long as it takes. You and the therapist will use the goals set in the first session as measurement for progress. Usually, clients see improvement in 3-6 months, but you can decide with your therapist based on your progress. You can always add new goals as you learn more about yourself.
The therapist’s role is to establish a nonjudgmental, safe space in which you can share your thoughts and feelings. They will bring education and skills to the session to support progress towards your goals. They may ask questions to guide you through exploration of your thoughts and beliefs. They may provide an alternative perspective.
