Postpartum Depression
Robin Bates-Pualuan
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPCC
Feeling sad, inadequate, and overwhelmed during a time when everyone else expects you to be blissful can add to the pain. Becoming a parent is a huge undertaking and it doesn't always happen smoothly. If you are experiencing more sadness or anxiety than you're comfortable with after having a baby, I can work with you to help you start feeling like yourself again.

Postpartum Depression
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.

Postpartum Depression
Growth and Change Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Postpartum depression is a form of grief. The person is coming to terms with the reality that their old life is dead and will no longer be the same. The sadness of grief is an important component of Postpartum Depression and is necessary to help the person move towards acceptance and integrated meaning.

Postpartum Depression
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.

Postpartum Depression
Lori Karny
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW Psychotherapist, Licensed Clinical Social Worker
The loss of a desired child at any time during pregnancy can be a devistating loss and a profound challenge. Psychotherapy can provide a safe place to discuss and explore your emotions and grief. Learning how to cope is different for every person and family member affected by loss.
