Maria Jose Rendon
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I work with new and expecting mothers navigating postpartum depression and anxiety, including the intrusive thoughts and OCD-like symptoms that can accompany the postpartum period and often go unspoken. I've received specialized training through Postpartum Support International, in both English and Spanish, and I bring that alongside my broader background in CBT and OCD treatment to help clients understand what they're experiencing and build practical tools to manage it. When helpful, I collaborate with other providers involved in your care, such as your OB-GYN or psychiatrist, so your treatment is coordinated rather than happening in isolation. I offer sessions in English or Spanish.

Aaliyah Gilbert
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LSW
Postpartum depression can feel isolating, overwhelming, and at times confusing, especially during a period that is often expected to feel joyful. I support clients as they navigate the emotional, physical, and identity shifts that can come after childbirth, including sadness, anxiety, irritability, guilt, or feeling disconnected from themselves or their baby. In our work together, I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space to process these experiences while also building coping strategies and emotional support systems. My goal is to help you feel understood, less alone, and more grounded as you adjust to this new chapter of life.

Anne Zakaras
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC, ATR-BC, PMH-C
Welcoming a child is a monumental life shift, but when postpartum depression or anxiety takes hold, it can leave you feeling completely untethered, exhausted, and filled with invisible guilt. Anne provides a warm, deeply validating, and judgment-free space just for you. As a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and Certified Perinatal Mental Health Specialist (PMH-C), she specializes in helping mothers, fathers, and partners navigate the heavy, complex mood changes that can follow pregnancy, childbirth, and early parenthood.
Anne’s integrative approach goes beyond standard parenting advice to treat the root of perinatal depression. By combining evidence-based clinical protocols with Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) and creative art therapy, she helps parents quiet intrusive thoughts, regulate an overwhelmed nervous system, and process profound shifts in identity. Whether you are facing traditional postpartum depression, navigating reproductive trauma, grieving a loss, or balancing motherhood with a chronic medical diagnosis, Anne is dedicated to helping you break through the isolation, build gentle coping strategies, and safely reconnect with yourself and your baby.
