Trauma and PTSD Therapists in New Hampshire

Pregnancy can be one of the most wonderful and stressful times in a woman’s life with enormous changes in family dynamics and relationships. Whether a new parent or care taker, or experiencing the tragedy of interrupted pregnancy or loss, expectations for a new mother can be very high and too often dismissive of the unique stressors involved with making a new human. When unpredicted changes happen, people can feel alone, isolated, and afraid to give voice to their vulnerabilities.

Through helping my clients to understand the basic neurobiological underpinnings of their symptoms, we begin to reduce shame and develop secure attachment within the therapeutic relationship.
