Postpartum Therapy
Support for the emotional weight of the postpartum period, using CBT, DBT, and EMDR to help you feel steadier as you move through this transition.
You are not alone in this
The postpartum period can bring more than exhaustion. Physically, it often means a body still recovering while running on almost no sleep. Emotionally, it can bring anxiety, grief for the life you had before, or a sense of losing yourself that nobody warned you about. Cognitively, it can look like intrusive thoughts, difficulty concentrating, or a fog that makes even simple decisions feel hard. You are allowed to struggle with this transition even while loving your baby.
How does postpartum therapy help?
I meet you where you are in this transition, using CBT and DBT to work through postpartum depression, anxiety, and intrusive thoughts, with EMDR available if a difficult birth experience is part of what you are carrying.
