Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you are experiencing postpartum depression, you may feel sadness, irritability, anxiety, or emotional numbness during a season that others expect to be joyful. You might feel disconnected from your baby, overwhelmed by responsibility, or ashamed that you are not feeling the way you thought you would. Exhaustion, hormonal changes, and the pressure to “hold it together” can intensify what you are already carrying.
At Selah Counselling, we approach postpartum depression with compassion and clinical care. This is not a failure as a mother. It is a treatable condition influenced by biological, emotional, and relational factors. Together, we focus on stabilizing your nervous system, restoring sleep rhythm and daily structure where possible, and gently processing the emotional weight of this transition. When needed, we collaborate with medical providers to ensure comprehensive support. Our goal is to help you regain steadiness, strengthen bonding, and experience this season with greater confidence and hope.

Postpartum depression (PPD) is a serious mental health condition that can affect new mothers after giving birth. It is characterized by feelings of extreme sadness, anxiety, and fatigue that can interfere with a mother's ability to care for herself and her baby. PPD can manifest in various ways, including mood swings, irritability, trouble bonding with the baby, and feelings of hopelessness. It’s important to understand that postpartum depression is not a sign of weakness, but rather a complex interplay of hormonal, emotional, and environmental factors. Seeking help is crucial, as support from healthcare professionals, family, and friends can lead to effective treatment and recovery. Remember, you are not alone, and reaching out for help is a positive step toward healing.

Kristen Bailey Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, Masters of Arts Counselling Psychology
The pospartum period is a vulnerable time for both parents. Mental health can really take a nose dive when your life is turned upside down, you aren't sleeping, maybe you have little to no outside support and you may have endured birth trauma. It is one of the hugest life changes one can experiences, even if you have already had a child or two. Therapy can help you to not just manage but get to a place where you can find yourself again through this challenging period.

I provide compassionate support to new mothers experiencing the emotional and psychological challenges that can arise after childbirth. Postpartum depression can affect a woman’s mood, energy, and ability to connect with her baby, and I offer a safe, nonjudgmental space to explore these feelings. Through empathetic listening and evidence-based therapeutic techniques, I help clients process their experiences, manage symptoms, and rebuild their sense of strength and well-being during this critical transition into motherhood.
