Our postpartum depression therapy offers compassionate support and evidence-based interventions to individuals struggling with perinatal mood disorders. We provide a safe and understanding space for new parents to process their emotions, address the challenges of parenthood, and develop coping strategies to manage symptoms of depression and anxiety. Our goal is to validate and normalize the experiences of postpartum depression, reduce feelings of isolation, and facilitate healing and recovery for both parents and their infants.
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. Book a free consultation to explore if we are a good fit.

It's important to understand that it's not your fault! Many women experience postpartum depression after childbirth. Once comfort and connection are established, the focus shifts to prioritizing your and your baby's well-being. Strategies for preventing depression are demonstrated, and symptoms are identified and addressed accordingly.
Postpartum Depression may start any time within a month or year after childbirth and lasts for weeks or months. In some serious cases it may progress to chronic episodes of depression. Early professional help is advisable.
