Postpartum Therapy

Supporting You Through the Tender Transition Into Parenthood

Becoming a parent can stir up a wide mix of emotions—love, wonder, exhaustion, fear, and sometimes grief. Whether this is your first baby or you’ve been here before, the early weeks and months after birth can feel overwhelming. You may be adjusting to a new identity, new relationships, and a rhythm of life that feels entirely unfamiliar.

Postpartum therapy offers a place to pause, breathe, and be held in whatever you’re carrying. You don’t need to have a diagnosis or a clear reason to come—just the sense that things feel hard, or lonely, or confusing right now. You deserve support.

You’re Not Alone in This

So many new parents wonder, “Is it supposed to feel like this?”

You might be feeling deep love for your baby one moment, and longing for the version of yourself you knew before. You might be missing connection with your partner. Or feeling guilt, anxiety, or shame—even when everyone around you says, “You should be happy.”

These feelings are more common than most people talk about. You are not failing. You are not broken. You are in the midst of a profound transition, and it makes sense that you might need help finding your way.

A Space to Be Fully Seen

Therapy in the postpartum period is not about “fixing” you. It’s about being with you—with softness, without judgment—as you navigate new terrain. In our sessions, you can expect a steady, grounding presence. Someone who listens carefully and walks alongside you as you explore what’s rising to the surface.

My work is rooted in attachment theory, which means I’m always paying attention to the relationships that shape and sustain us: your bond with your baby, your connection with your partner, your own early experiences, and the community you come from and are building.

Together, we can explore:

  • Shifts in identity, roles, and self-understanding

  • Feelings of anxiety, sadness, anger, or emotional overwhelm

  • Difficulties in bonding or feeding

  • Partner or family stress

  • The need for boundaries, rest, or more support

  • Grief after a traumatic birth or postpartum experience

You Don’t Have to Do This Alone

You were never meant to parent in isolation. If you’d like, we can also explore ways to build or reconnect with support systems—whether that’s extended family, chosen family, other new parents, or local resources.

Sometimes just saying things out loud to someone who truly listens can make all the difference.
