Tandra Froehlich Childress
Marriage and Family Therapist, ATR, LMFT
We are all aware of the idealistic story of love at first sight, the greatest joy we will ever receive, and instant completion of our family. Postpartum depression and anxiety may initially prevent us from experiencing these joys. When this happens, feelings of shame and guilt arise and further strengthen overwhelm and sadness. I am here to tell you that you can get through this. You are not alone.

Jennie Steinberg - feminist, queer-affirming therapist
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPCC, PMH-C
I am a Certified Perinatal Health Professional (PMH-C) through Postpartum Support International, but I find that most clients find my most useful credential in this area to be my lived experience. As an IVF veteran, survivor of a high-risk pregnancy, and mom who experienced a difficult transition to new parenthood, I understand the ways that these life events can tectonically shift your entire identity. If you are struggling with postpartum depression or anxiety (both of which can begin either during pregnancy or any time during the first year after you give birth), talk therapy can be incredibly effective. For support in these areas, reach out. I look forward to meeting you soon!

Courtney Whetstone
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Having a baby is hard!!! There is so much that goes into it as far as body and mind and mood are concerned and having the right approach to be able to tackle these things are a must! Once we have the arrival of the new baby, it often can feel like there is no time for yourself, that the baby has completely taken over your life which can lead to feelings of guilt and depression. These are all normal feeling and I want to be able to help normalize some of this and how to work through these
