Postpartum Depression
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.

Not all depressive symptoms are the same.
It is important that your provider asks the right questions. oo often, the label “Depression” is tossed around in popular culture as a way to describe a feeling or a mood, i.e. “I’m depressed thinking about how much work I have to do this weekend” or, “After looking at my bank balance this morning, I’m completely depressed.” While these situations CAN trigger sadness, hopelessness, and/or other unpleasant emotions, they are NOT a Depressive Disorder.
We want to help rule out chemical, physical, environmental, and other factors to help you really get to the bottom of things.
