Nekea Strong (Abundant Life Therapy)

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.

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.

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.

Soma Aloia, SoulWork Somatics & Somatic Counseling
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LCST, HES
Postpartum depression is more than the stress of becoming a new parent. This monumental transition into parenthood can awaken far more than new responsibilities, and the postpartum period may stir earlier life experiences, including attachment trauma, emotional overwhelm, and grief while also reshaping identity and relationships. As a parent, your own imprints may be activated with the news of pregnancy or upon the arrival of your little one.
PPD is a real and treatable condition that can affect mood, identity, bonding and attachment with your baby, and even your sense of yourself. Drawing from somatic and pre/perinatal psychology, therapy provides a compassionate, trauma-informed space to support healing and bonding, nervous system regulation, and help you reconnect with yourself and your baby at a pace that feels safe. You will develop attunement abilities for the development of a secure foundation for you and your child. Couples welcome.

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.

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.

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.

Kim Gibson
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC, ATR
Support is key when making that transition to parenthood. One in five new parents will experience anxiety or depression after the birth of a baby. Its really common but not talked about enough. No that you don't have to navigate it alone. I'd be happy to help. I have completed several advanced trainings in maternal mental health & provide a warm, welcoming presence to process all things connected to parenthood including depression, anxiety & trauma.

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.
