Courtney Whetstone
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Having a baby is hard!!! There is so much that goes into it as far as body and mind and mood are concerned and having the right approach to be able to tackle these things are a must! Once we have the arrival of the new baby, it often can feel like there is no time for yourself, that the baby has completely taken over your life which can lead to feelings of guilt and depression. These are all normal feeling and I want to be able to help normalize some of this and how to work through these

Gail Kirk Poust
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
The transition to motherhood can be wonderful and exciting, and it can also be lonely, challenging, and overwhelming. If you are feeling down, worried or like you just can't handle one more night waking or one more diaper blowout, then it might be time to reach out for support. You don't need to go through this tender time alone. I support women experiencing depression, anxiety and OCD during pregnancy or postpartum. As a mom of three, I understand what you are going through. You can get through this, and you can feel better.
