• A change in hormone levels after childbirth
• Previous experience of depression or anxiety
• Family history of depression or mental illness
• Stress involved in caring for a newborn and managing new life changes
• Having a challenging baby who cries more than usual, is hard to comfort, or whose sleep and hunger needs are irregular and hard to predict
• Having a baby with special needs (premature birth, medical complications, illness)
• First-time motherhood, very young motherhood, or older motherhood
• Other emotional stressors, such as the death of a loved one or family problems
• Financial or employment problems

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.

Rachael Keyser
Psychologist, PsyD
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.
