Postpartum Depression therapists in Wood River, Illinois IL
Sushma Cheturvedula
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Postpartum depression is a mood disorder that often arises in women following childbirth. It brings about feelings of sadness, anxiety, and fatigue, which can disrupt everyday activities and the ability to tend to oneself and the newborn. I would assist individuals grappling with postpartum depression by creating a supportive and understanding environment where they can freely share their emotions and worries without fear of criticism. Together, we would delve into the factors contributing to their depression, such as hormonal shifts, lack of sleep, past traumas, or relationship challenges.

Jessica Beaston
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LCPC
Postpartum depression can be incredibly challenging for mothers, especially when symptoms get in the way of being the best parent they want to be. It's a difficult journey, but I offer a supportive space where mothers can explore their feelings without fear of judgment, helping them understand and navigate what's truly happening.

Pamela Meyerson
Therapist, LCSW, Master in School Psychology
It is often normal to feel a little overwhelmed and even anxious after giving birth. If you are experiencing postpartum depression symptoms for more than three weeks, it is beneficial to seek treatment. Individuals have been able to successfully heal their depression on their own, but seeking postpartum counseling results in less trial and error and for you to receive expert advice and an actionable plan from a licensed professional.
