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.

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.

Nekea Strong (Abundant Life Therapy)
Pre-Licensed Professional, AMFT, APCC
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.

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.

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.

Dr. Deborah Vinall
Counselor/Therapist, PsyD, LMFT
Post-partum depression can feel deeply confusing and isolating—especially when expectations of joy or connection don’t match your lived experience. You may feel numb, overwhelmed, disconnected, or burdened by guilt for not feeling the way you thought you “should.”
From a trauma-informed perspective, post-partum depression can be influenced by many factors, including nervous-system overwhelm, changes in identity, earlier attachment experiences, or previous pregnancy or infant loss. These responses are not a reflection of your capacity to love or parent, but signals that something within you is needing care and support.
In therapy, we gently explore and process these experiences at a pace that feels safe and respectful. Using approaches such as EMDR, Brainspotting, and parts-based work, we support healing that honors both your history and your present needs—making space for greater connection, compassion, and ease in your relationship with yourself and your child.

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.

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.

Bridgit Serrano
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, PMH-C
As a Perinatal Mental Health Certified therapist (PMH-C), I specialize in postpartum depression and mood changes that arise before and after childbirth, including symptoms that follow a difficult or traumatic birth experience. Many women I work with feel numb, irritable, disconnected, or unlike themselves — sometimes accompanied by guilt or shame for not feeling the way they envisioned. Using EMDR and attachment-focused therapy, we address both the emotional impact of the birth and the deeper patterns contributing to depression, helping you feel more present, steady, and connected over time.
