It takes a village to raise a child, so why do you feel so alone? Postpartum depression can make you feel guilty even when you are trying your best. It is a monster that eats away at you relentlessly and blocks the light of hope that you crave for and that I will endeavor to help you see again.
One in seven women experience a perinatal mood disorder (anxiety, depression) during the first year postpartum. This very common pre and post natal experience can feel overwhelming, however you are not alone. PPA and PPD are common experiences I work with in my practice. We will work together to tailor a treatment approach that best meets your needs.
I specialize in supporting new mothers experiencing postpartum depression, providing a compassionalte space where you can navigate the complexities of this challenging time. It's okay to feel sadness and stress after having a baby; these emotions are more common than you might think. Understanding that you are not alone is the first step towards healing. Together, we will work to address your feelings and develop strategies to help you regain your sense of well-being and joy in motherhood.
The feelings of low mood, anxiety, and disconnection are normal experiences after the birth of a child. It can be overwhelming for mothers to carry these at times conflicting feelings and experiences. I aim to create a space you can explore this adjustment period with self compassion and work towards new understanding of parenting expectations and roles.
