New mothers expect to have a wonderful experience when they bring their babies home. If you are living with postpartum depression, that wonderful experience can feel like a nightmare.

Life can be hard. Sometimes we have difficulty communicating with our partner, boss, children, or our parents. Sometimes we have difficulty adjusting to a new environment or new life circumstances. At times, we may feel stuck and unsure of how to make changes in our lives. Other times we may want to delve deeper and truly understand our motivations and desires. Sometimes we just need to feel heard and understood. Having an unbiased, non judgmental person to talk to can help.
Did you know that 80% of new moms experience the "baby blues" after giving birth? It is completely normal to have a wide range of emotions- including some sad emotions- after you have a baby. If your sadness lasts longer than two weeks and appears to be getting worse rather than getting better, you may be experiencing postpartum depression. This can happen to men as well. Please know that you are not alone and, while it may not seem like it right now, you can feel better and are taking a wonderful first step by seeking out a therapist. I have completed Postpartum Support International's Advanced Certification Training in Perinatal Mental Health Psychotherapy and I am passionate about working with women, men and couples on perinatal and postpartum challenges.

Not all depressive symptoms are the same.
It is important that your provider asks the right questions. Often, the label “Depression” is tossed around in popular culture as a way to describe a feeling or a mood, i.e. “I’m depressed thinking about how much work I have to do this weekend” or, “After looking at my bank balance this morning, I’m completely depressed.” While these situations CAN trigger sadness, hopelessness, and/or other unpleasant emotions, they are NOT a Depressive Disorder.
We want to help rule out chemical, physical, environmental, and other factors to help you really get to the bottom of things.
