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.

Katie at Jade Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
You don’t feel how you thought you would feel. There are a lot of visions you had for when you were a new mom - and none of them are coming to fruition! You might feel angry, sad, lonely. You deserve support! I’ve been there. I work with many many folks who have been there (and are still there). It’s not your fault, and you can feel better. You’re a good parent!

Growth and Change Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Postpartum depression is a form of grief. The person is coming to terms with the reality that their old life is dead and will no longer be the same. The sadness of grief is an important component of Postpartum Depression and is necessary to help the person move towards acceptance and integrated meaning.

Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with mothers in the months and years after birth who feel “off” in ways that others don’t always see. Many of the mothers I see look like they are managing from the outside, while feeling anything but okay on the inside. You may love your baby and still feel overwhelmed, numb, irritable, or not at home in your own life.
Some have had medically complicated or frightening births, NICU stays, pregnancy or birth complications, or babies with ongoing medical needs. Others had births that looked fine from the outside, but something about the experience or the aftermath has left them feeling unlike themselves.
Postpartum experiences can include persistent sadness or emptiness; anxiety, racing thoughts, or a sense of dread that does not match what is happening; intrusive thoughts or images, including fears about something happening to your baby; replaying the birth or hospital stay and wondering if you did something wrong; irritability or feeling on edge with your baby, partner, or other children; difficulty sleeping, eating, or caring for yourself even when you technically have the chance; feeling disconnected from your baby, your body, or the person you used to be; shame or guilt that you are not enjoying this time the way you thought you would; and loneliness even when you are rarely alone.
For mothers whose babies had NICU stays or ongoing medical issues, there may also be ongoing vigilance and fear, medical trauma, and the sense that you never really got a chance to just be home with your baby. I have spent more than three decades sitting with women in the perinatal season, and I know how varied “postpartum” can be.
In our work together, we slow things down and make room for your full experience without judgment. Your birth story, your mood, your fears, and your exhaustion are all welcome here. From there, we explore small, realistic shifts that help you feel more anchored, supported, and less alone in this season of your life. You do not have to be in crisis to reach out, or to prove that you are “struggling enough.” Feeling off, unlike yourself, or quietly overwhelmed is enough.

Emily Blitz
Psychologist, PsyD
As both a perinatal psychologist and a mother, I know how intense and tender this time can be. I'm here to support you through it. Motherhood can be beautiful, overwhelming, exhausting, and profoundly transformative - all at once. Postpartum anxiety and depression often reflect your needs, fears, and the shifts in identity and relationships that come with this stage of life. In our work, I offer a steady, supportive space to feel, reflect, and understand these experiences. With curiosity and care, these feelings can guide you toward greater insight, connection, and confidence as a parent.

Middle Path Wellness Collective
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LMSW, LPC, PLPC
We specialize in supporting parents experiencing postpartum depression, including feelings of sadness, anxiety, irritability, disconnection, or not feeling like yourself after the birth of a child. Many parents feel pressure to be grateful or happy while privately struggling with overwhelm, guilt, or a sense of loss of identity. Postpartum depression is not a personal failure, it is a real and treatable experience that deserves compassionate care. Our approach provides a supportive, nonjudgmental space to process these emotions, strengthen emotional stability, and help parents reconnect with themselves and their role with greater confidence and self-compassion. Remember, the non-birthing caregiver can also experience postpartum depression symptoms.

The transformative experience of welcoming a child can bring a spectrum of emotions for new parents.
