Postpartum Depression
Dr. Abrielle Conway, Rooted in Grace Psychological Services
Psychologist, Psy.D., Licensed Psychologist
Are you wondering why you feel down and unmotivated to do anything instead of enjoying these precious moments with your little bundle of joy? While many birthing parents experience what's called the "baby blues," you may be experiencing symptoms of postpartum depression if you find yourself feeling depressed for over two weeks beyond childbirth. Many parents feel extremely alone in their sadness, believing that they are the only ones who experience this. However, postpartum depression (along with other perinatal mood and anxiety disorders) is fairly common. The months following an infant's birth can be especially hard for mothers. In addition to the fluctuating hormones, many find that they don't have the support that they need. In my work with new parents, I assess for postpartum depression, anxiety, and childbirth trauma. I tailor treatment to your unique difficulties and therapy needs, incorporating research-supported therapy treatments. I also provide information on community resources, and am happy to collaborate with support persons you've identified, with your permission. I've taken Postpartum Support International's certification training in Perinatal Mood & Anxiety Disorders, as well as their advanced psychotherapy training. I'm also currently serving as Co-Chair of PSI-FL's Board.

Robin Kaye Stilwell
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., L.M.F.T.
Childbirth is beautiful and at the same time brings significant changes in life. Most women believe that they are supposed to instinctively and joyfully feel connected to their babies. If depression and anxiety occur, many feel guilty that they are bad mothers. It is important to be aware that post-partum depression is common and treatable and is a medical issue.

My approach with post-partum depression is understanding your symptoms from a holistic perspective. We will learn warning signs for your post-partum depression, ways to reduce exposure, and how to face things head on with new coping skills.
