Marriage and Family Therapist, M.S., LMFT
"Enjoy every minute!"...
"You must be over the moon with joy!"...
"What a blessing!"...

Allie Michie, MS
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT159347
The postpartum period can bring up so much more than anyone prepares you for. If you're feeling disconnected, overwhelmed, or not quite like yourself after having a baby, that's worth paying attention to. This season changes everything, including who you are as an individual and as a partner. I work with both moms and dads navigating the emotional complexity of early parenthood with warmth, patience, and genuine curiosity about your experience.

Working with individuals navigating postpartum depression involves creating a safe, nonjudgmental space where they can speak honestly about what they are experiencing. I gently explore mood changes, intrusive thoughts, identity shifts, and the emotional weight that often comes with new parenthood. My focus is on helping clients reduce shame, build coping tools, and reconnect with themselves while adjusting to life after birth. My approach is compassionate, practical, and collaborative, with the goal of supporting emotional healing, strengthening confidence, and helping clients feel more grounded and supported during this tender season.

Postpartum depression can affect mood, energy, sleep, and emotional connection after the birth of a child, and it is more common than many people realize. I provide integrative psychiatric care for individuals experiencing postpartum depression, with attention to hormonal changes, sleep disruption, medical factors, and emotional well-being. Visits focus on support, careful evaluation, and medication management when appropriate, with the goal of helping patients feel more stable, supported, and able to reconnect with themselves and their lives.

Tracy Sachs (Singh)
Therapist, MA, AMFT
Becoming a mother is the ultimate rite of passage. It is literally the end of who you were and the becoming of a person you have not yet been. Sadly, our society expects mothers to bounce back (in body, mind, and soul) to who they were, but this completely contradicts the lived reality of becoming a mother. Everything has changed and very few people acknowledge this. This, along with a lack of robust perinatal and social support, and the demands and exhaustion of having a new baby, can bring a new mother to her knees. Together we can work on helping you integrate your new identity and find the support you need to thrive in your life as a mother and woman.

Lori Karny
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW Psychotherapist, Licensed Clinical Social Worker
The loss of a desired child at any time during pregnancy can be a devistating loss and a profound challenge. Psychotherapy can provide a safe place to discuss and explore your emotions and grief. Learning how to cope is different for every person and family member affected by loss.

Robin Bates-Pualuan
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPCC
Feeling sad, inadequate, and overwhelmed during a time when everyone else expects you to be blissful can add to the pain. Becoming a parent is a huge undertaking and it doesn't always happen smoothly. If you are experiencing more sadness or anxiety than you're comfortable with after having a baby, I can work with you to help you start feeling like yourself again.

Annie Harton Kassell
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Nobody warned you it could feel like this. The exhaustion that sleep does not touch. The fear that arrives out of nowhere. The sense that you should be happy and cannot find your way to it. This is not a character flaw and it is not a lack of faith. I specialize in the perinatal season, and I can help you name what is happening and find your feet again.

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.

Alana Morazzini
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I hold specialty training in maternal mental health, including the diagnosis and treatment of postpartum mood disorders — among them postpartum depression, anxiety, and OCD. Becoming a mother can bring unexpected emotional struggles that are often minimized or misunderstood. In our work together, you'll have space to speak honestly about the grief, the overwhelm, and the identity shifts — without judgment. Healing is possible, and you don't have to do it alone.
