The transition to motherhood can be both joyful and overwhelming. If you’re experiencing feelings of sadness, anxiety, or isolation after childbirth, know that you are not alone. I provide a safe and nurturing space for new mothers to explore their feelings, cope with the challenges of parenthood, and reclaim their emotional well-being.
I understand the unique struggles that can arise during this time, from adjusting to your new role to managing the pressures of caring for a newborn. Together, we will work through your experiences using evidence-based approaches tailored to your needs. My goal is to help you develop coping strategies, enhance your self-care, and foster a supportive environment that promotes healing.

Dr. Adam Shafer (Chicago, IL)
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
Giving birth and raising a child is one of the most significant adjustments any parent must make that requires us to accommodate ourselves to the presence of an infant/young child who is dependent on us. This can (and almost certainly does at times) feel desperate to the point that we don't know what to do. It is vital that we allow ourselves some degree of self-compassion to know and accept these overwhelming circumstance in order to reach out to others for support and guidance to help us through.

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. In therapy, I work to help new mothers find their way through postpartum depression back to healthy, connected coping.
