Soma Aloia, SoulWork Somatics & Somatic Counseling
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LCST, HES
Postpartum depression is more than the stress of becoming a new parent. This monumental transition into parenthood can awaken far more than new responsibilities, and the postpartum period may stir earlier life experiences, including attachment trauma, emotional overwhelm, and grief while also reshaping identity and relationships. As a parent, your own imprints may be activated with the news of pregnancy or upon the arrival of your little one.
PPD is a real and treatable condition that can affect mood, identity, bonding and attachment with your baby, and even your sense of yourself. Drawing from somatic and pre/perinatal psychology, therapy provides a compassionate, trauma-informed space to support healing and bonding, nervous system regulation, and help you reconnect with yourself and your baby at a pace that feels safe. You will develop attunement abilities for the development of a secure foundation for you and your child. Couples welcome.

Allie Michie, MS
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT159347
The postpartum period can bring up so much more than anyone prepares you for. If you're feeling disconnected, overwhelmed, or not quite like yourself after having a baby, that's worth paying attention to. This season changes everything, including who you are as an individual and as a partner. I work with both moms and dads navigating the emotional complexity of early parenthood with warmth, patience, and genuine curiosity about your experience.

MJB Wellness LLC
Hypnotherapist, Certified Hypnotherapist and Coach, Certified Sexological Bodyworker, Sex Educator, Certified Reiki
Much like loss and grief, PostPartum Depression is an issue that can be resolved through Hypnotherapy. Once we understand the specific triggers for the various symptoms, we can alter the client's responses, installing positive triggers. We can even alter the body's responses, going into the part of the subconscious mind that controls hormones and other physical processes and change settings, getting the body to reset things to the optimum levels. This is a technique that I have used frequently for many different issues and it works powerfully.

Kristina Anzell
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CPSC
Postpartum depression does not always show up as sadness, tiredness, feeling bad about yourself. It shows up as irritability, mood swings, yelling at your husband and kids, feeling like you are the only one doing anything, feeling stuck and suffocated. It can show up as feeling distant and disconnected from your partner and child, feeling bored when playing with your baby and having a hard time feeling that love for anyone especially your baby.
