If you are coming to see me, perhaps you need a nudge to make a change in your life. You will always be greeted with kindness without judgment. You probably know what you want to do, but you know you are not doing it and you can't figure out why. You may be a parent who is exhausted and forgotten who you wanted to be.. Or perhaps you stalled in college. Looking at your habits, positive and negative, we may consider how they are impacting the decisions you make and what you want to do with your life. Or perhaps I can help by pointing you to resources in our community that you never knew existed.

Everyone tells you how strong you are. What they don't see is how much you're carrying. You're constantly thinking, planning, fixing, remembering, and taking care of everyone else. Even when you have time to rest, your mind won't slow down. You feel guilty saying no, struggle to ask for help, and wonder why you never feel like you're doing enough. On paper, your life looks successful, but inside you're overwhelmed and craving peace, not another thing to accomplish. If you're tired of surviving and ready to make room for yourself, you're in the right place.

What are the most effective ways to address pregnancy, prenatal, and postpartum concerns?
The most effective way to address pregnancy, prenatal, and postpartum concerns is by finding a therapist who has prior experience helping other patients overcome the challenge being faced. For example, a marriage and family therapist may have experience helping couples adjust to their new relationship dynamic. An anxiety specialist may have experience helping with phobias or illness anxiety related to the child’s health. A depression specialist may have experience treating postpartum depression.
When should I seek treatment for prenatal or postpartum concerns?
Pregnancy and the postpartum period involve intense physical and mental changes; a degree of upset and instability is normal. However, if these changes impair daily functioning, it may be time to seek help. This distinction is pertinent for postpartum depression: A period of teariness, irritability, and distress is difficult but normal in the one to two weeks after childbirth (sometimes called the “baby blues.”) But if feelings of sadness and hopelessness persist beyond that period, the person should seek treatment.
How do I manage worries during pregnancy or the postnatal period?
A therapist can help patients develop the tools they need to manage anxieties during or after pregnancy. Cognitive behavioral therapy can help people identify and reframe harmful patterns of thought, and change their behaviors. Other techniques and skills can allow people to develop acceptance, psychological flexibility, self-compassion, communication skills, and more.
Are there specific medications for postpartum depression?
In 2019, the FDA approved the first medication designed to treat postpartum depression. The medication is called brexanolone and is delivered intravenously by a medical professional over the course of a few days. However, typical antidepressants, which are more accessible, can also treat postpartum depression. The disorder is often best treated through a combination of medication and therapy.
