Pregnancy and Postpartum Therapy
Are You Feeling Overwhelmed During Pregnancy or After Birth?
Do you feel like you’re supposed to be happy, but instead feel sad, anxious, or disconnected?
Are you struggling to bond with your baby or partner?
Do you lie awake at night, replaying the day, second-guessing every decision or crying without a clear reason?
Have you felt alone, unsupported, or even ashamed of how hard this transition is?
Pregnancy and the postpartum period are often portrayed as magical, but for many women and birthing parents, it’s far more complex. You may feel like you’ve lost a part of yourself—or that you’re drowning in responsibility, expectations, and emotional ups and downs. You might be mourning the life you had before, feeling disconnected from your body, or wondering if you’re a “bad mom” for finding this season so difficult.
All of this is incredibly common—and deeply human.
With pregnancy and postpartum therapy, you can find your footing, reconnect with yourself, and experience motherhood from a more grounded, supported place.

You’re Not Alone—Many Parents Struggle in Silence
The Truth Behind the Smiles
Despite the highlight reels of social media and well-meaning advice from others, studies show that 1 in 5 women experience significant mental health challenges during pregnancy or after birth. This includes postpartum depression, anxiety, intrusive thoughts, birth trauma, or simply feeling overwhelmed and unseen.
It’s no surprise that this happens. Our culture doesn’t always support new parents in the ways they need most. You may have experienced:
Pressure to “bounce back” physically or emotionally
Isolation from friends or lack of community
Unrealistic expectations about motherhood
Grief around loss of freedom, identity, or previous roles
Medical complications or traumatic birth experiences
These factors, combined with hormone fluctuations and sleep deprivation, can create a perfect storm.
It Doesn’t Mean You’re Failing
Struggling in the postpartum period doesn’t make you a bad parent—it makes you a human one. You are not broken. You are adjusting to a major transformation, and with the right support, you can feel like yourself again—maybe even for the first time in a long while.
The good news is, you don’t have to do this alone. Pregnancy and postpartum therapy can be a place to breathe, process, and grow through this season of profound change.
Therapy for Pregnancy and Postpartum Can Help You
Feel Like You Again
A Space to Be Fully Seen and Supported
In our sessions, we offer a warm, nonjudgmental space where you can say the hard things out loud—without shame or guilt. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, grief, identity loss, intrusive thoughts, or strained relationships, this is a place where your whole experience is welcome.
Therapy provides a chance to:
Unpack and process birth trauma or perinatal anxiety/depression
Explore changing roles, identities, and body image
Strengthen your relationship with yourself, your baby, and your partner
Set boundaries and reimagine support systems
Learn skills for calming your nervous system and creating inner resilience
You don’t need to filter or “get it together” here. Together, we’ll explore what’s beneath the surface—at your pace, with compassion and care.
How We Work With Clients
Our approach is collaborative and flexible. We draw from evidence-based practices like:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help shift unhelpful thought patterns
Somatic and mindfulness-based practices to reconnect with your body and reduce anxiety
Narrative and grief work to process identity shifts and loss
Our work might include grounding techniques, journaling prompts, self-compassion exercises, or simply making space for your truth in a way you haven’t been able to before. I also support partners or family members who want to better understand how to help.
Whether you’re newly pregnant, preparing for birth, or in the trenches of early parenthood, we meet you where you are—with empathy, insight, and tools that truly support your healing.
You Deserve Support in This Life-Altering Season
We’ve seen firsthand how transformative therapy can be. Time and again, we witness women and birthing parents rediscover their inner strength, feel less alone, and reconnect with themselves in powerful ways.
Your story matters—and it deserves to be heard, held, and honored.
But You Might Still Have Questions About Therapy…
What if I’m not “bad enough” to need help?
You don’t need to be in crisis to benefit from therapy. If you’re feeling off, disconnected, or simply overwhelmed by all the changes, that’s enough. Your experience matters, and you don’t need to wait until things get worse to seek support.
I can barely find time to shower—how will I find time for therapy?
That’s completely valid. I offer flexible scheduling, including virtual therapy sessions, so you can access support from the comfort of your home—even during nap time or while feeding. Together, we’ll find a rhythm that honors your life and energy.
Is this just how motherhood feels?
While some amount of transition stress is normal, constant anxiety, sadness, guilt, or disconnection is not something you have to just “put up with.” If you’re questioning whether how you feel is normal, that’s often a sign that extra support could help. You’re not overreacting—and you’re not alone.
Healing Is Possible, and You Deserve to Feel Whole Again
Whether you’re navigating pregnancy, recovering from birth, or figuring out who you are in this new chapter, you don’t have to carry it all by yourself. With the right support, you can move from surviving to thriving—and reconnect with the parts of you that feel lost, unseen, or overwhelmed.
Let’s take this one step at a time—together.
