Dr. Megie Shean
Psychologist, PsyD
I work with women experiencing emotional distress related to childbirth —such as traumatic deliveries, medical interventions, intraoperative pain during cesarean, or perinatal loss—with sensitivity to how past sexual trauma can resurface during childbirth.

Mary Mesiha
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
It’s common for new mothers (and fathers) to experience a wide range of emotions after childbirth—joy and gratitude mixed with sadness, anxiety, or a sense of being overwhelmed. These feelings don’t mean you’re failing as a parent; they mean you’re human. Postpartum counseling offers a supportive space to talk openly about your experience, understand what you’re going through, and learn ways to care for yourself during this transition. Together, we’ll work toward helping you feel more balanced, confident, and connected—to yourself and your baby.

Emily Blitz
Psychologist, PsyD
As both a perinatal psychologist and a mother, I know how intense and tender this time can be. I'm here to support you through it. Motherhood can be beautiful, overwhelming, exhausting, and profoundly transformative - all at once. Postpartum anxiety and depression often reflect your needs, fears, and the shifts in identity and relationships that come with this stage of life. In our work, I offer a steady, supportive space to feel, reflect, and understand these experiences. With curiosity and care, these feelings can guide you toward greater insight, connection, and confidence as a parent.

Hartford is Connecticut's state capital and one of the country's starkest examples of urban poverty in a wealthy state—historically the insurance capital of America, it now has some of the highest poverty rates in the northeast, with a predominantly Black and Puerto Rican population that has been disproportionately affected by decades of disinvestment. Spanish-language therapy is essential in Hartford, where a large Puerto Rican community makes up a significant proportion of the population, and bilingual practitioners who understand the cultural dimensions of Puerto Rican mental health experience are in significant demand. Hartford Hospital's Institute of Living—one of America's oldest psychiatric hospitals, founded in 1822—provides important behavioral health resources to the community. Common therapy concerns include poverty-related trauma, systemic inequality and racial stress, immigration and diaspora identity, anxiety, depression, and the compounding challenges of significant unmet mental health need in the capital of a prosperous state.
