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.

Postpartum Depression
Dr. Adam Shafer
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
Giving birth and raising a child is one of the most significant adjustments any parent must make that requires us to accommodate ourselves to the presence of an infant/young child who is dependent on us. This can (and almost certainly does at times) feel desperate to the point that we don't know what to do. It is vital that we allow ourselves some degree of self-compassion to know and accept these overwhelming circumstance in order to reach out to others for support and guidance to help us through.
Postpartum Depression
Dr. Nicole Parkes
Psychologist, PsyD
In the tender, often overwhelming journey of motherhood, I offer a nurturing space for mothers grappling with postpartum depression. I understand the complex interplay of emotions that new mothers face — the joy, the fear, the overwhelming sense of responsibility, and the often unspoken sadness. With sensitivity and compassion, I walk alongside you, offering a listening ear and a guiding hand through this delicate phase. Together, we work to illuminate the path toward healing, balancing the challenges of motherhood with the need for personal care and emotional well-being. It's a journey of rediscovering your strength and joy, not just as a mother, but as a woman who deserves to thrive in every aspect of her life.
