Common risk factors for PPD are the following:
• A change in hormone levels after childbirth
• Previous experience of depression or anxiety
• Family history of depression or mental illness
• Stress involved in caring for a newborn and managing new life changes
• Having a challenging baby who cries more than usual, is hard to comfort, or whose sleep and hunger needs are irregular and hard to predict
• Having a baby with special needs (premature birth, medical complications, illness)
• First-time motherhood, very young motherhood, or older motherhood
• Other emotional stressors, such as the death of a loved one or family problems
• Financial or employment problems
• Isolation and lack of social support

Linda Friedman
Psychologist, Psy.D.
The transformative experience of welcoming a child can bring a spectrum of emotions for new parents. While feelings of overwhelm, worry, sadness, or irritability are understandable, persistent or intense feelings can indicate postpartum depression. As an expert in this area, I offer compassionate and effective support tailored to the unique needs of new mothers.

Cascade Psychological Services, PLLC
Psychologist, PsyD, PMH-C
As a psychologist certified in perinatal mental health, I work with postpartum depression, anxiety, emotional disconnection, birth-related trauma, and difficult transitions into parenthood. Treatment attends to symptoms while also making room for identity changes, relationship strain, ambivalence, grief, and the realities of caring for an infant.

Dr. Adam Shafer (Chicago, IL)
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
Giving birth and raising a child is one of the most significant adjustments any parent must make that requires us to accommodate ourselves to the presence of an infant/young child who is dependent on us. This can (and almost certainly does at times) feel desperate to the point that we don't know what to do. It is vital that we allow ourselves some degree of self-compassion to know and accept these overwhelming circumstance in order to reach out to others for support and guidance to help us through.
