Megan Noren
Psychologist, Psy.D.
The postpartum period can bring profound emotional changes, and it may be difficult to reconcile what you're experiencing with what you expected motherhood to feel like. You may be feeling persistently sad, anxious, irritable, disconnected, overwhelmed, or unlike yourself. You might also be struggling with guilt, self-doubt, or the pressure to manage everything while caring for your baby and adjusting to a new identity. You don't have to navigate these feelings alone, and experiencing them doesn't mean you're failing as a parent. Therapy offers a compassionate space to make sense of what you're going through, explore the emotional changes and expectations surrounding motherhood, and reconnect with yourself. Together, we can work toward greater self-compassion, a stronger sense of support, and a more manageable path through this transition.

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.
