Suzanna Freerksen
Psychiatrist, MD
As a psychiatrist I know a lot about what medically happens to the body during and after pregnancy, and I have educated myself in multiple psychotherapy modalities for when medications aren't the answer or are not effective enough on their own. My psychiatry practice is focused on you and how you can best achieve your goals, whether that is medication, psychotherapy, lifestyle changes, or a combination of all three. Let's work together to help you get 'unstuck'. I use evidence-based medicine to help reassure or adjust medications during pregnancy and postpartum. Medications don't always need to be stopped if there is already exposure, since it is often "risk vs. risk"-- the risk of the baby being exposed to the medication versus the risk of untreated depression/anxiety in the pregnancy and postpartum period. There is good evidence that quality psychotherapy, such as I provide, can minimize the need or the dose required to treat depression in the postpartum period. I can also give guidance around breastfeeding and medications.

Virginia Health and Medical Psychology
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologst
Life after a baby can be a roller coaster of joy, exhaustion, rapid mood changes, and isolation. I help new parents navigate the ups and downs of post-partum and manage the stress of this time period. Therapy provides a supportive space to process emotions, build coping strategies, and regain a sense of balance and connection with themselves and their families.

Jaclyn Davis
Psychologist, PhD
New parenthood is often idealized as a joyful, magical time—but for many mothers and fathers, it brings unexpected waves of sadness, disconnection, or anxiety. You may feel emotionally flat, cry uncontrollably, or find it hard to bond with your baby. These experiences can be confusing and isolating, especially when the world expects you to feel nothing but joy. Therapy offers a compassionate, nonjudgmental space to tend to your emotional needs—so you can care for yourself even as you care for your child. You don’t have to suffer in silence or feel ashamed for struggling. Healing is possible, and you don’t have to do it alone.

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.

Mobile is Alabama's only seaport and one of the Gulf Coast's oldest cities, with a Creole heritage and Mardi Gras tradition that predate New Orleans's celebrations — giving it a cultural richness distinct from most Alabama cities. The city has a large African American population and a significant community connected to the healthcare and aerospace sectors, including Airbus's US manufacturing base. University of South Alabama and USA Health provide both institutional mental health resources and clinical training programs that feed into the local therapy community. Mobile's strong faith community and conservative Southern culture mean spiritually integrated therapy is widely available, and therapists who can work within diverse religious frameworks find broad acceptance across the city's varied neighborhoods.
