Postpartum Depression
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.

Postpartum Depression
Kate Koslowsky
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
The transition into parenthood can bring intense emotional and physical changes, and many people experience anxiety, sadness, or a loss of confidence during this time. I help clients develop concrete tools to cope with racing thoughts, guilt, and overwhelm, while also exploring the deeper expectations, relationship shifts, and identity changes that often come with a new baby. Therapy offers a place to speak openly about what this period is really like, and to find a way forward that feels more manageable and more connected.

Postpartum Depression
Dr. Kelsi Clayson
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Bringing a new life into the world is often painted as a time of joy and fulfillment—but for many, it is also a time of overwhelming emotions, exhaustion, and self-doubt. If you’ve been feeling more anxious, numb, or hopeless than excited, you are not alone. Maybe you struggle with guilt over not feeling the way you think you "should," or you find yourself withdrawing from loved ones. Perhaps everyday tasks feel impossible, or waves of sadness and frustration leave you feeling unrecognizable to yourself.
Postpartum depression is not a reflection of your love for your baby or your abilities as a parent—it is a real and treatable condition that many experience. Together, we will create a space where you can be honest about what you're going through, free from judgment. You deserve support, understanding, and the reassurance that you are not failing—you are adjusting to a profound life transition. With the right tools and care, it is possible to reconnect with yourself, find relief from the weight of depression, and move toward a place of balance and self-compassion.
