Postpartum
Dr. Deborah Vinall
Counselor/Therapist, PsyD, LMFT
Post-partum depression can feel deeply confusing and isolating—especially when expectations of joy or connection don’t match your lived experience. You may feel numb, overwhelmed, disconnected, or burdened by guilt for not feeling the way you thought you “should.”
From a trauma-informed perspective, post-partum depression can be influenced by many factors, including nervous-system overwhelm, changes in identity, earlier attachment experiences, or previous pregnancy or infant loss. These responses are not a reflection of your capacity to love or parent, but signals that something within you is needing care and support.
In therapy, we gently explore and process these experiences at a pace that feels safe and respectful. Using approaches such as EMDR, Brainspotting, and parts-based work, we support healing that honors both your history and your present needs—making space for greater connection, compassion, and ease in your relationship with yourself and your child.

Samantha Schaefer
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, PMH-C
After welcoming a baby, many parents feel anxious, numb, or unlike themselves—and then guilty for feeling that way. I help new mothers and parents make sense of their emotions, reduce overwhelm, and begin feeling connected to themselves and their babies again.
