Postpartum Depression
Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in postpartum depression, my approach to treatment is compassionate, holistic, and tailored to the unique needs of new mothers. Through evidence-based therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), interpersonal therapy (IPT), and support groups, I provide a safe space for women to express their feelings, explore the challenges of motherhood, and develop coping strategies. By addressing factors such as hormonal changes, sleep deprivation, and social support, I help mothers navigate the complex emotions associated with postpartum depression. Additionally, I collaborate closely with healthcare providers to ensure comprehensive care, including medication management when necessary. Psychoeducation about postpartum depression and self-care practices are also integral parts of treatment, empowering women to prioritize their mental health and well-being during this transformative period. My goal is to support mothers in overcoming postpartum depression, strengthening maternal-infant bonds, and embracing the joys of motherhood with resilience and confidence.

Molly Halbrooks
Counselor/Therapist, LMFT
Having a child is one of the most life-changing experiences possible. The postpartum period can be one of the most challenging times in your life, and postpartum depression can make this feel insurmountable. Your body is completely different, you aren't sleeping, you are responsible for a tiny human, and all of your relationships shift. Therapy can be a completely non-judgemental, safe space for you to process all of this change and begin to move into the next chapter of your life with more joy and peace.

Dr. Adam Shafer
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
Giving birth and raising a child is one of the most significant adjustments any parent must make that requires us to accommodate ourselves to the presence of an infant/young child who is dependent on us. This can (and almost certainly does at times) feel desperate to the point that we don't know what to do. It is vital that we allow ourselves some degree of self-compassion to know and accept these overwhelming circumstance in order to reach out to others for support and guidance to help us through.
Postpartum Depression
Joy Freilich
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LMHC
Life can be hard. Sometimes we have difficulty communicating with our partner, boss, children, or our parents. Sometimes we have difficulty adjusting to a new environment or new life circumstances. At times, we may feel stuck and unsure of how to make changes in our lives. Other times we may want to delve deeper and truly understand our motivations and desires. Sometimes we just need to feel heard and understood. Having an unbiased, non judgmental person to talk to can help.
Did you know that 80% of new moms experience the "baby blues" after giving birth? It is completely normal to have a wide range of emotions- including some sad emotions- after you have a baby. If your sadness lasts longer than two weeks and appears to be getting worse rather than getting better, you may be experiencing postpartum depression. This can happen to men as well. Please know that you are not alone and, while it may not seem like it right now, you can feel better and are taking a wonderful first step by seeking out a therapist. I have completed Postpartum Support International's Advanced Certification Training in Perinatal Mental Health Psychotherapy and I am passionate about working with women, men and couples on perinatal and postpartum challenges.
