Postpartum
Individual and Couples Therapy
Psychologist, PhD
Becoming a parent for the first, or fifth, time can be an amazing rite of passage. It can also be a shock to our bodies, our identity, and our patterns of daily living. If we have a child in the context of a partnership, it can be difficult to perceive growing, adjusting, or adapting to parenthood at a different pace than our partner. These factors, not to mention hormonal shifts, can contribute to postpartum depressiveness that can be difficult to manage when we have a tiny human to nurture and protect. Experience a safe space to talk about all the thoughts and feelings you are experiencing.

Molly Halbrooks
Counselor/Therapist, LMFT
Having a child is one of the most life-changing experiences possible. The postpartum period can be one of the most challenging times in your life, and postpartum depression can make this feel insurmountable. Your body is completely different, you aren't sleeping, you are responsible for a tiny human, and all of your relationships shift. Therapy can be a completely non-judgemental, safe space for you to process all of this change and begin to move into the next chapter of your life with more joy and peace.

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.

Athens is home to the University of Georgia and has cultivated a reputation as one of the South's most vibrant college cities, with a legendary music scene—birthplace of R.E.M. and the B-52s—a strong arts community, and a progressive political culture that contrasts with the surrounding rural Georgia context, producing a city with a well-developed and diverse therapy landscape relative to its size. UGA's Counseling and Psychiatric Services (CAPS) is the primary mental health resource for the city's enormous student population, and a well-developed private therapy sector serves the broader community including university staff, the arts and music community, and permanent residents. The sharp economic inequality between the university and creative communities and the city's lower-income and Black neighborhoods is an important dimension of the mental health landscape, and therapists in Athens work across a wide range of economic and cultural contexts. Common therapy concerns include student mental health, creative community stress, identity and LGBTQ+ issues, racial equity, and the challenges of a city where prosperity and poverty exist in close proximity.
