One thing is for certain, life comes with challenges! Along with those challenges, one can become overwhelmed and unsure of themselves.

If and when that happens, you need someone to remind you of your strength and empower you to excel beyond previously conceived limits.

I believe in meeting my clients where they are, helping them identify where they want to be, and working with them to make a tangible plan to get there. I believe therapy should be a judgment-free, empathetic environment where we build a therapeutic relationship that facilitates even the most painful growth. Through this approach, clients understand that I am genuinely motivated to help them reach their happiest, healthiest self, which allows me to provide difficult feedback when necessary. Optimum wellness looks different for everyone, and I believe that no matter what everyone can and deserves to pursue (and achieve) this state.

Struggling to recognize who you are beneath the roles of parent, partner, professional, and/or just existing can leave you feeling like a shadow of yourself over time.

Taking that first step may feel daunting, but it can be part of a defining moment toward your healing and steadier ground.

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.
