Postpartum Depression
Michelle Foster
Counselor/Therapist, LMSW
When working with clients experiencing postpartum depression, I utilize a combination of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and supportive counseling. This approach helps clients address negative thought patterns, manage emotional challenges, and develop coping strategies while providing a safe space for them to express their feelings and experiences related to motherhood. Additionally, I may incorporate psychoeducation to inform clients about postpartum depression and its impact, empowering them to seek support and build a supportive network.

Postpartum Depression
Stephanie Marks
Hypnotherapist, MA
Having a baby stimulates more feelings than any other life event. In our baby, we find our most hidden and unconscious wishes, fears and fantasies that we ourselves experienced in our earliest moments with our own mothers. These intense feelings stimulated by motherhood are physically and psychically embodied and can be difficult to deal with alone, even if our partner is there for us. As a mother, I understand the many conflicted facets of having a baby. Physically, emotionally and cognitively, having a baby transforms us on many levels in ways we could have never imagined before baby was born. With the arrival of a new baby, it often can feel like there is no space for yourself, that the baby has completely taken over your life which can lead to feelings of guilt and depression. Though the love for our newborn is like no other, mothers need a lot of help and support and a space where they can feel safe to express all thoughts and feelings. I am here for you, to share your joys and your pains, your everyday struggles of motherhood that you feel you cannot reveal to anyone else because of the care you seek to give to your newborn. Taking care of yourself means taking care of your baby. In our work together you will feel supported, held and understood so that you can have more energy to be present with yourself and your baby.

Postpartum Depression
Janice M. Amato
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, L.C.S.W.-R
Postpartum is a particularly difficult depression. While society, family, and friends may all feel joy at a new life, the postpartum mother can be feeling lost, numb, and unable to "live up to" the picture of new mother joy. She may also feel angry and resentful.
It is imperative that the new mother seek therapy and, possibly, medication. Most importantly, the new mother must be shown kindness and acceptance, along with the recognition that these feelings will pass and are mostly a result of hormonal surges.

Postpartum Depression
Under The Tree Counseling
Life Coach
There’s a lot of different reasons as why a patient wishes to separate themselves from their child. Gluing the patient back together to their child, while tapping into their own inner childhood, will help the client regain their confidence as a new mother
