Additionally, for pregnant and postpartum clients who have experienced complex trauma I integrate best practice navigating pregnancy, birth, and infant care which can be particularly triggering.
Are you struggling with anxiety, overwhelming worry, sadness, or rage? It has been my experience that traumatic experiences are at the root of mental, emotional, and relational difficulties. I also know that there is often a lot of stigma experienced around trauma. Maybe you feel like they "should" be over it or maybe you feel alone because no one understands. In therapy we will work together to help you understand how your past experiences are impacting your present life. I will also teach you the tools you need to feel better and have healthier relationships.

If you feel like you are losing control of your life or struggling to feel like yourself again, you are not alone. Life transitions can be difficult but overcoming the difficult emotions that come with these changes is possible. Often, with transitions we can feel like we are losing sight of who we truly are, we grieve a part of ourselves and might feel like we have lost control of our lives.

Pregnancy, Prenatal, Postpartum Therapists
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.
