Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with mothers in the months and years after birth who feel “off” in ways that others don’t always see. Many of the mothers I see look like they are managing from the outside, while feeling anything but okay on the inside. You may love your baby and still feel overwhelmed, numb, irritable, or not at home in your own life.
Some have had medically complicated or frightening births, NICU stays, pregnancy or birth complications, or babies with ongoing medical needs. Others had births that looked fine from the outside, but something about the experience or the aftermath has left them feeling unlike themselves.
Postpartum experiences can include persistent sadness or emptiness; anxiety, racing thoughts, or a sense of dread that does not match what is happening; intrusive thoughts or images, including fears about something happening to your baby; replaying the birth or hospital stay and wondering if you did something wrong; irritability or feeling on edge with your baby, partner, or other children; difficulty sleeping, eating, or caring for yourself even when you technically have the chance; feeling disconnected from your baby, your body, or the person you used to be; shame or guilt that you are not enjoying this time the way you thought you would; and loneliness even when you are rarely alone.
For mothers whose babies had NICU stays or ongoing medical issues, there may also be ongoing vigilance and fear, medical trauma, and the sense that you never really got a chance to just be home with your baby. I have spent more than three decades sitting with women in the perinatal season, and I know how varied “postpartum” can be.
In our work together, we slow things down and make room for your full experience without judgment. Your birth story, your mood, your fears, and your exhaustion are all welcome here. From there, we explore small, realistic shifts that help you feel more anchored, supported, and less alone in this season of your life. You do not have to be in crisis to reach out, or to prove that you are “struggling enough.” Feeling off, unlike yourself, or quietly overwhelmed is enough.

I combine experiential and dynamic elements to heal emotional trauma. I help you access and transform stuck emotional patterns, and integrate positive experiences into your sense of yourself.

Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Postpartum depression can bring sadness, guilt, or disconnection during a tender season. IFS, attachment, and mindfulness-based interventions provide support in softening shame and strengthening connection with self and child. Attachment, IFS, and interpersonal neurobiology approaches help with regulation and resilience. I also collaborate with prescribers around medication decisions and use diagnostic skills to differentiate postpartum depression from anxiety, bipolar shifts, or adjustment disorders.

Barbara Clark
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, MS, LPCC, Brainspotting Certified
Postpartum depression can feel isolating and confusing, especially when it does not match expectations of motherhood. I provide a supportive space where you can talk openly about what you are experiencing without judgment. Therapy focuses on emotional support, nervous system regulation, and helping you feel more like yourself again.

Jamie Andersen, M.A., LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, Woodland Counseling
Postpartum depression also known as perinatal mood and anxiety disorder is a mood disorder that can affect women after childbirth. After childbirth there are many factors which contribute to being overwhelmed including sleep deprivation, physical discomfort and hormonal changes, as estrogen levels drop quickly, which can trigger mood swings. Mothers with postpartum depression experience feelings of extreme sadness, anxiety, and exhaustion that may make it difficult for them to complete daily care activities for themselves or for others. I will partner with you to explore the many challenges you are experiencing, assess your postpartum depression and work to improve your level of functioning by creating a new balance in your life.

Aurora is one of Colorado's most ethnically diverse cities and home to Buckley Space Force Base, creating a therapy community shaped by both military families and a remarkably multicultural civilian population that includes large communities from East Africa, Southeast Asia, and Latin America. The city's proximity to Denver and its own rapidly expanding healthcare sector — anchored by Children's Hospital Colorado and UCHealth University of Colorado Hospital on the Anschutz Medical Campus — give it significant institutional mental health resources and a large population of healthcare workers navigating occupational stress. Therapists experienced with military trauma, refugee resettlement, and bicultural identity serve distinct and important roles in Aurora's clinical landscape. The city's rapid growth has accelerated demand for therapists who specialize in life transitions and the challenges of building community in a fast-changing suburban environment.
