Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
Facing our own selves as parents, doing one of the hardest jobs day after day, re-visiting our own attachments and breaking unhealthy patterns from our own families of origin is hard work...and it's possible. Parenting can be rewarding and bring us to our knees in desperation. We can lose sight of taking care of ourselves along the way. Let's work together so you can stay focused on actually being the type of parent you want to be and need to be - for your kids, your partner, and for yourself.

Sarah J Thompson
Counselor/Therapist, MEd, LPC
For new parents, it can be upsetting and frightening to have feelings about parenthood that don’t seem “right.”
For some, a morning run, a healthy diet and receiving help and support from family and friends are sufficient enough to get through the initial adjustment period. For others, talking to a therapist who specializes in dealing with new parenthood issues can be comforting, relieving and enlightening.
Therapists who have extensive education and training in peri-natal mental health understand that hormone changes, personal and family history, and social support are all vital factors in understanding and alleviating postpartum symptoms.
Common postpartum symptoms include:
Feeling overwhelmed and wondering if you should have become a mother in the first place
Feeling guilty due to high self-expectations
Not feeling “bonded” with the baby
Your thoughts are racing and you can’t quiet your mind
Feeling empty and numb as if you’re just going through the motions
Lack of focus and concentration
Being afraid that if you reach out for help, others will judge your inabilities
Thoughts of running away or leaving your baby behind
Being constantly in a state of worry
If one or more of the above symptoms resonates with you, I invite you to contact me today for a free consultation. Together, we’ll find the underlying issues that make you feel disconnected from your baby and create a strategy for moving forward. Contact me today to see how I can help.

Given my interest in working with adolescents, I also enjoy working with parents of adolescents to help work on understanding this developmental period better as well as on specific skills to utilize with teens such as communication skills.
