Pregnancy, birth, and motherhood can be both beautiful and overwhelming. This season often brings unexpected emotions—joy mixed with anxiety, exhaustion, or loss of self. Whether you’re coping with prenatal or birth trauma, postpartum depression or anxiety, or struggling to adjust to your new role, therapy offers a compassionate space to help you find balance and healing.
Therapy for Pregnancy, Postpartum & Motherhood
Challenges in the Perinatal Period
Each stage of motherhood, from pregnancy to the postpartum period, presents a unique set of challenges, such as:
Prenatal & birth trauma: When pregnancy or delivery don’t go as planned, feelings of fear, powerlessness, or grief may linger.
Postpartum anxiety & depression: Persistent sadness, irritability, or obsessive worries can make bonding with your baby difficult and leave you feeling isolated.
Adjusting to motherhood: From sleepless nights to identity shifts and guilt over self-care, the transition into motherhood can feel overwhelming and disorienting.
Therapeutic Process
You don’t have to navigate this alone. In therapy, we’ll create a safe, supportive space to process your emotions, strengthen coping skills, and reconnect with yourself.
Healing space: Work through the challenges of motherhood without judgment.
Coping strategies: Learn evidence-based tools to manage emotions and feel more in control of your mental health.
