Postpartum
Dr. Shelby Kittinger
Psychologist, PsyD
Postpartum therapy focuses on the emotional and identity transformations that accompany motherhood. I help new parents process the complex mix of grief, guilt, love, and loss that can surface after birth, supporting both healing and reconnection with self.

Gail Kirk Poust
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
The transition to motherhood can be wonderful and exciting, and it can also be lonely, challenging, and overwhelming. If you are feeling down, worried or like you just can't handle one more night waking or one more diaper blowout, then it might be time to reach out for support. You don't need to go through this tender time alone. I support women experiencing depression, anxiety and OCD during pregnancy or postpartum. As a mom of three, I understand what you are going through. You can get through this, and you can feel better.

PSYCHe, PLLC
Psychologist, PhD, DBT-LBC™, LPC, PsyD, MSW, Marriage and Family Counselor, LCSW
Not all depressive symptoms are the same.
It is important that your provider asks the right questions. Often, the label “Depression” is tossed around in popular culture as a way to describe a feeling or a mood, i.e. “I’m depressed thinking about how much work I have to do this weekend” or, “After looking at my bank balance this morning, I’m completely depressed.” While these situations CAN trigger sadness, hopelessness, and/or other unpleasant emotions, they are NOT a Depressive Disorder.
We want to help rule out chemical, physical, environmental, and other factors to help you really get to the bottom of things.

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

Postpartum
Laura Fleming
Pre-Licensed Professional, Associate Marriage and Family Therapist
The postpartum period is tender, emotional, and unexpectedly lonely. Parenthood brings a profound identity shift, and feelings of sadness, guilt, anxiety, or confusion can surface even when everything looks “fine” or "normal" on the outside. In therapy, we slow down and gently explore these experiences. I'm here for you as a nonjudgmental space to help you process the emotional weight of the postpartum season and find relief, clarity, and support during a time that can feel incredibly isolating and overwhelming.
