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.

Jaclyn Davis
Psychologist, PhD
New parenthood is often idealized as a joyful, magical time—but for many mothers and fathers, it brings unexpected waves of sadness, disconnection, or anxiety. You may feel emotionally flat, cry uncontrollably, or find it hard to bond with your baby. These experiences can be confusing and isolating, especially when the world expects you to feel nothing but joy. Therapy offers a compassionate, nonjudgmental space to tend to your emotional needs—so you can care for yourself even as you care for your child. You don’t have to suffer in silence or feel ashamed for struggling. Healing is possible, and you don’t have to do it alone.

Brittany Speed, Hudson Valley Psychology
Psychologist, PhD
The postpartum period brings with it profound physical, emotional and social changes, and the transition to parenthood can be emotionally overwhelming in ways we are not always able to prepare for. You may be struggling with anxiety, persistent worries about your baby’s well-being, intrusive thoughts that feel frightening or difficult to share, or feelings of sadness, guilt, and disconnection. If you’re finding it difficult to feel like yourself or are overwhelmed by thoughts and emotions that you can’t seem to turn off, you are not alone, and you deserve support. I specialize in treating postpartum depression, anxiety, and OCD using evidence-based approaches tailored to your individual needs. With effective treatment, meaningful improvement is possible, and you can learn to manage distressing thoughts and feelings, feel more confident in yourself, and reconnect with the experience of parenthood in a way that feels more manageable and fulfilling. You don’t have to navigate this transition alone.
