Laura Fleming
Pre-Licensed Professional, Associate Marriage and Family Therapist
The postpartum period is tender, emotional, and unexpectedly lonely. Parenthood brings a profound identity shift, and feelings of sadness, guilt, anxiety, or confusion can surface even when everything looks “fine” or "normal" on the outside. In therapy, we slow down and gently explore these experiences. I'm here for you as a nonjudgmental space to help you process the emotional weight of the postpartum season and find relief, clarity, and support during a time that can feel incredibly isolating and overwhelming.

Dr. Lyndsay Elliott
Psychologist, PsyD.
Postpartum depression is far more common than most new mothers are told — and far more treatable than it feels in the middle of it. If you are experiencing postpartum anxiety, postpartum depression, intrusive thoughts, or an overwhelming sense that something is wrong despite doing everything right, you are not failing as a mother. As a licensed clinical psychologist specializing in perinatal mental health, postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, and maternal mental health, I provide compassionate, evidence-based therapy designed specifically for new and expecting mothers navigating one of life's most significant transitions. Telehealth postpartum therapy available across 40+ states.

Catherine DeMonte, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA., LMFT
Parenting is a life transition that catapults us into a brand new life, leaving behind our former life forever! Who knew an 8 pound package would alter life so profoundly?! It's beautiful. AND it's difficult. It changes so much. It's good to have a place to talk about those changes and navigate the way through with someone who relates to this. It's a time that effects the couple dramatically and communication skills often are needed. Roles change, sex changes or disappears for a while, there's sleep deprivation and mood swings. Seeing someone in a safe, loving. nurturing environment can make all the difference in how we get through this time.

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.

Tandra Froehlich Childress
Marriage and Family Therapist, ATR, LMFT
We are all aware of the idealistic story of love at first sight, the greatest joy we will ever receive, and instant completion of our family. Postpartum depression and anxiety may initially prevent us from experiencing these joys. When this happens, feelings of shame and guilt arise and further strengthen overwhelm and sadness. I am here to tell you that you can get through this. You are not alone.

Susanna La
Psychologist, Ph.D.
If you are struggling with postpartum depression and anxiety, know that you are not alone. So much happens during pregnancy and then welcoming a little one into the world. Your life is different, your body, your relationship, everything is different. You may also be sleep deprived, getting unsolicited parenting advice, and feeling too much or even numb. If you are struggling, it is not your fault and you are doing your best in each moment and day. Sometimes your best can look like keeping your little one alive and surviving another day. Reaching out for help is incredibly courageous and if you are looking for a fellow mama who gets it, who also happens to be a highly sensitive therapist, feel free to reach out to me.

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.

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.

Annalisa Barrett
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I formerly helped women and families as a Postpartum Doula and Prenatal Yoga Instructor prior to becoming a therapist. I feel passionate about this sacred stage of life and the importance of supporting women through the greatest transition they will ever experience. Sometimes hormonal imbalances, unmet expectations and unforeseen challenges lead to an unexpected struggle during an incredibly tender time and extra support is necessary to help a new mother move away from self judgement and shame.
