Anna Diamantis
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, PMH-C
Postpartum depression and other perinatal mood and anxiety disorders can bring sadness, loneliness, anxiety, intrusive thoughts, or difficulty bonding after a baby arrives. As a PMH-C certified in perinatal mental health, I offer judgment-free support for new and expecting parents navigating this transition. You don't have to go through it alone, and with the right help you can find relief and feel more like yourself again.

Dr. Laura Testiler
Psychologist, PsyD, PMH-C
You love your baby, but you don’t feel like yourself and you’re not sure how to get back to feeling okay. Postpartum depression and anxiety affects 1 in 5 mothers and 1 in 10 fathers. It can include feelings of sadness, anxiety, irritability, anger, guilt, worthlessness, loss of interest in activities you used to enjoy, and can affect your ability to bond with your baby and connect with your partner. Postpartum depression is common, treatable, and does not mean you're a bad parent. With the right support, the transition to parenthood can feel much more manageable.
I’m a licensed psychologist and Certified Perinatal Mental Health Specialist (PMH-C) offering virtual individual therapy to adults struggling with depression, anxiety, identity shifts, and relationship challenges during pregnancy, postpartum, and early parenthood. I have completed advanced training in perinatal mental health through Postpartum Support International and am passionate about supporting parents through the tender transition to parenthood.

Kelsey Ellis
Psychologist, Ph.D., LCP
Postpartum depression can bring sadness, irritability, guilt, or a sense of disconnection during a time when you may feel pressure to appear joyful and capable. Many women find themselves questioning their identity, capacity, or emotional responses while adjusting to the demands of new motherhood. In our work together, we focus on making sense of these shifts, reducing isolation, and rebuilding a steadier internal footing so you can care for yourself while caring for your child.

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.
