Postpartum Depression
PSYCHe, PLLC
Psychologist, PhD, DBT-LBC™, LPC, PsyD, MSW, Marriage and Family Counselor, LCSW
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.

Dr. Maria Canyon
Psychologist, PsyD, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
I have extensive experience supporting parents, expecting parents, and grieving parents during this unique period of life. I have advanced training in the treatment of Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders through Postpartum Support International and completed subspecialty training in Infant & Early Childhood Mental Health at University of Denver while earning my Master's and Doctoral degrees in Clinical Psychology. Additionally, I wrote a doctoral research paper on the body image concerns that often arise during the perinatal period. I have worked and trained in a number of community clinics and academic medical hospitals in OB/GYN, NICU, and integrated care settings. I have felt honored to support individuals and families on their journeys at MotherWise Colorado, University of New Mexico Health Sciences Center, University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, Children's Hospital Colorado and now in private practice.
