EMDR and Trauma Therapy Centre
Registered Social Worker, Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
The symptoms of postpartum depression highlight the complex relationship between the emotional scars from the past and the difficulties of becoming a new mother. Motherhood, with its roots in the intricate mechanics of attachment, can intensify the effects of previous traumas by bringing on emotions of inadequacy, overwhelm, and loneliness. Like a shadow cast over the joy of childbirth, postpartum depression envelops mothers in a fog of sadness and despair, echoing the unmet emotional needs and the scars of past hurts. Therapy becomes a lifeline amidst the turbulence, offering a space to navigate the complexities of motherhood, process the echoes of past traumas, and cultivate resilience in the face of profound change. By nurturing compassionate connections and fostering self-compassion, mothers can navigate the terrain of postpartum depression with greater grace, finding solace in shared humanity and forging a path towards healing and renewed maternal bonds.

Alysha Bernstein
Registered Psychotherapist, RP(qualifying), MACP
After my own experience postpartum as a psychotherapist I realized there is an intense need for therapists to better understand and support people through their postpartum journey. If I struggled as someone trained and experienced in psychotherapy what about the new parents who do not have that knowledge? I want to give back and be a support at such a beautiful but very difficult time.

Mind By Design®
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychology and Coaching Clinics
Although it is normal to have what is colloquially known as the “baby blues” following the birth of a child, this tends to naturally go away not too long after. PPD can start during the pregnancy to one year after the birth of a child, where the sufferer will show the typical effects of depression which affects their mood; the way they feel about themselves, how they relate to others, and how they interact with the rest of the world. Ultimately, PPD affects people from many different walks of life, regardless of the ease or difficulty of the pregnancy, whether they are a first-time parent or have other children, whether they are married or not, and regardless of socioeconomic status, education, and cultural background.

The reality of parenthood is oftentimes different from what we tend to see in media and many parents face challenges with anxiety and depression shortly after the arrival of their baby. During this time, therapy can provide you with a safe space where you can learn that what you are experiencing is valid and that you are not alone in the struggles you are facing. As a therapist, I will you meet you with compassion, check in with you often, help you to process what you are feeling, and support you in developing tools to feel more empowered and confident in this new chapter.
