Perinatal mental Health
Perinatal (Pregnancy and Postpartum) psychotherapy
The perinatal period is a time of profound transition—physically, emotionally, and relationally. For many, it brings significant life changes that can feel overwhelming. This stage of life can also lead to the onset of mental health challenges or amplify existing struggles.
As a therapist with specialized training in maternal mental health, I am Perinatal Mental Health Certified through Postpartum Support International. I offer compassionate support for a range of concerns, including:
- Perinatal mood and anxiety disorders (PMADs)
- Relationship challenges during pregnancy and postpartum
- Reproductive trauma, birth trauma and pregnancy loss
Whether you’re adjusting to the demands of pregnancy, processing a difficult birth experience, or navigating the emotions of loss, I provide a safe space to explore your feelings and move toward healing.
Specialized Support for Parents Navigating Prenatal Diagnosis
For parents who have received a prenatal diagnosis for their baby, this time can feel especially overwhelming. You may be dealing with a mix of emotions—shock, sadness, guilt, or fear—while worrying about your baby’s health, feeding challenges, or upcoming medical procedures. I specialize in helping parents process these emotions, manage worry, and find strength and coping skills as they prepare and navigate their unique journey.
Why perinatal psychotherapy?
Whether you’re pregnant or you’re navigating the early weeks and months of postpartum, this is an emotionally tender time—one that may feel filled with uncertainty, worry, or grief alongside your love and hope for your baby. My specialized perinatal psychotherapy services offer a safe, compassionate space to explore the complex emotions that can arise during this unique journey. Together, we’ll gently process what you’re carrying, reduce emotional distress, and help you build tools to cope with stress, feel more grounded, and move forward with greater confidence and clarity—through pregnancy, postpartum, and beyond.
