Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPCC
Feeling sad, inadequate, and overwhelmed during a time when everyone else expects you to be blissful can add to the pain. Becoming a parent is a huge undertaking and it doesn't always happen smoothly. If you are experiencing more sadness than you're comfortable with after having a baby, I can work with you to help you start feeling like yourself again.

Tracy Sachs
Therapist, MA, AMFT
Becoming a mother is the ultimate rite of passage. It is literally the end of who you were and the becoming of a person you have not yet been. Sadly, our society expects mothers to bounce back (in body, mind, and soul) to who they were, but this completely contradicts the lived reality of becoming a mother. Everything has changed and very few people acknowledge this. This, along with a lack of robust perinatal and social support, and the demands and exhaustion of having a new baby, can bring a new mother to her knees. Together we can work on helping you integrate your new identity and find the support you need to thrive in your life as a mother and woman.

Catherine DeMonte, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA., LMFT
Parenting is a life transition that catapults us into a brand new life, leaving behind our former life forever! Who knew an 8 pound package would alter life so profoundly?! It's beautiful. AND it's difficult. It changes so much. It's good to have a place to talk about those changes and navigate the way through with someone who relates to this. It's a time that effects the couple dramatically and communication skills often are needed. Roles change, sex changes or disappears for a while, there's sleep deprivation and mood swings. Seeing someone in a safe, loving. nurturing environment can make all the difference in how we get through this time.

Dr. Lauren Jensen
Psychologist, Psy.D., PMH-C, EMDR Certified
You're sleep deprived, putting all your effort in to keeping your new baby alive and safe, and on top of it you're feeling sad and perhaps even guilty or ashamed that you're not overjoyed with excitement during this major transition. Postpartum mood disorders occur in 1 in 5 mothers, and can be more likely for those with a history of depression. The good news is, that you don't have to deal with this on your own, and healing and treatment will help you overcome these feelings.

Having a baby is hard!!! There is so much that goes into it as far as body and mind and mood are concerned and having the right approach to be able to tackle these things are a must! Once we have the arrival of the new baby, it often can feel like there is no time for yourself, that the baby has completely taken over your life which can lead to feelings of guilt and depression. These are all normal feeling and I want to be able to help normalize some of this and how to work through these

We are all aware of the idealistic story of love at first sight, the greatest joy we will ever receive, and instant completion of our family. Postpartum depression and anxiety may initially prevent us from experiencing these joys. When this happens, feelings of shame and guilt arise and further strengthen overwhelm and sadness.
