The transition to motherhood is often more complex than people expect. Postpartum depression can bring feelings of sadness, anxiety, guilt, irritability, disconnection, or a sense that you've lost yourself along the way. I specialize in supporting women through the challenges of pregnancy, postpartum adjustment, and early motherhood, helping them feel more supported and less alone during this significant life transition.

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.

Philadelphia Couples Therapy
Psychologist, PsyD
Despite its obvious joys, new parenthood almost inevitably takes a toll on romantic partnerships. Seemingly overnight each partner is thrust into a different role from what they are used to, and a different role from their partner. They feel misunderstood, underappreciated, and often lonely. Additionally, there is a constant source of need, possibly contributing to sleeplessness, anxiety, and depression. New mothers famously feel guilt for whatever they feel they aren’t doing well enough as a mother. They might be seeking support but coming up short, which exacerbates their self-doubt and loneliness. New fathers often deeply desire to be helpful and good providers while bonding with their child, but sometimes they don’t feel good enough or appreciated despite their efforts. You might have a parent staying home for the first time, feeling lost in the mountain of domestic responsibilities. Therapy is often the last item on a new parent’s to-do list, but it is the ultimate form of self care, especially if their partner feels emotionally far away. Therapy is a way of reuniting the love that brought you together while both holding up this new little life.

Paula Kirsch
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CST
The postpartum period is supposed to feel like one thing, and sometimes it feels like something else entirely. If you are struggling, that does not mean you are failing. It means you need support that actually meets you where you are. I work with new mothers navigating the emotional, relational, and physical shifts that come after having a baby, with honesty and without judgment.
