Therapy for Postpartum Depression
Can Transform Your Life and Bring Your Peace
Your world has dramatically changed since having a child. You want to be happy, but you feel like you can't catch your breath. Exhaustion, constant feeding demands, and lack of downtime are overwhelming you. The joy of motherhood you expected is swallowed by anxiety and depression.
You feel lost, frustrated, and on parental overload—struggling to juggle your baby's needs and your own. You're not showing up for yourself or your baby the way you had hoped.
If these feelings sound familiar, there is a way to heal through postpartum depression therapy.
You're not alone. Up to 20% of women are diagnosed with postpartum depression, though the real number is suspected to be much higher—more than half go undiagnosed because they don't share their true feelings.
Experiencing postpartum depression isn't about emotional strength. It's your body's reaction to life-changing events. Sometimes our bodies need extra help, and that's okay.
As an experienced therapist specializing in postpartum depression and anxiety, I'll hold space for you to express your feelings and teach you healing skills. Together, we can improve your quality of life so you can experience motherhood the way you desire.
What Is Postpartum Depression?
Postpartum depression (PPD) is depression experienced by mothers following childbirth, resulting from hormonal changes, psychological adjustment to motherhood, and exhaustion.
After childbirth, your body experiences a dramatic decrease in estrogen and progesterone levels. This hormone drop can cause anxiety, sadness, and irritability. Usually these feelings subside within a week. If they persist and increase, you could be experiencing postpartum depression.
Contributing factors include psychosocial stressors, traumatic pregnancy or childbirth, lack of support, changing hormones, difficult partnerships, and social situations.
