Sushma Cheturvedula
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Postpartum depression is a mood disorder that often arises in women following childbirth. It brings about feelings of sadness, anxiety, and fatigue, which can disrupt everyday activities and the ability to tend to oneself and the newborn. I would assist individuals grappling with postpartum depression by creating a supportive and understanding environment where they can freely share their emotions and worries without fear of criticism. Together, we would delve into the factors contributing to their depression, such as hormonal shifts, lack of sleep, past traumas, or relationship challenges.
