Tracy Sachs (Singh)
Therapist, MA, AMFT
Becoming a mother is the ultimate rite of passage. It is literally the end of who you were and the becoming of a person you have not yet been. Sadly, our society expects mothers to bounce back (in body, mind, and soul) to who they were, but this completely contradicts the lived reality of becoming a mother. Everything has changed and very few people acknowledge this. This, along with a lack of robust perinatal and social support, and the demands and exhaustion of having a new baby, can bring a new mother to her knees. Together we can work on helping you integrate your new identity and find the support you need to thrive in your life as a mother and woman.

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.

Nekea Strong (Abundant Life Therapy)
Pre-Licensed Professional, AMFT, APCC
Working with individuals navigating postpartum depression involves creating a safe, nonjudgmental space where they can speak honestly about what they are experiencing. I gently explore mood changes, intrusive thoughts, identity shifts, and the emotional weight that often comes with new parenthood. My focus is on helping clients reduce shame, build coping tools, and reconnect with themselves while adjusting to life after birth. My approach is compassionate, practical, and collaborative, with the goal of supporting emotional healing, strengthening confidence, and helping clients feel more grounded and supported during this tender season.

Long Beach is home to one of the largest Cambodian-American communities in the world — concentrated in the Cambodian Cultural District near Anaheim Street — creating significant demand for therapists with expertise in intergenerational trauma, refugee experience, and the psychological legacy of the Khmer Rouge genocide. The city also has large Latino and Black populations, a growing young professional community, and one of the busiest commercial ports in North America, with maritime and logistics workers forming part of its occupational therapy clientele. MemorialCare Long Beach Medical Center and the Long Beach VA Medical Center provide institutional mental health resources, with a private practice community serving Belmont Shore, Bixby Knolls, and the East Side. Long Beach's diverse, working-class identity gives its therapy community a distinct character compared to its wealthier South Bay neighbors.
