Dr. Ann Becker-Schutte; Healthy Balanced Life Psychology, LLC
Psychologist, Ph.D.
New mothers expect to have a wonderful experience when they bring their babies home. If you are living with postpartum depression, that wonderful experience can feel like a nightmare. In therapy, I work to help new mothers find their way through postpartum depression back to healthy, connected coping.

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.
