Mun & Mind Therapy PLLC
Psychologist
The transition to parenthood can bring profound changes emotionally, physically, and relationally. Postpartum depression is more than the "baby blues" and can affect a parent's ability to enjoy daily life or feel connected to themselves and their child. We provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space to address feelings of sadness, overwhelm, guilt, anxiety, or isolation while helping parents access the support they need during this important life stage.
