Postpartum
Lauren Chavis
Psychologist, PsyD, PMH-C
The postpartum period can bring depression, anxiety, irritability, guilt, overwhelm, or a sense that you aren't feeling the way you expected to. I work with women during pregnancy and postpartum to navigate the emotional and identity changes that come with becoming a parent and to feel more like themselves again.

Postpartum
Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Postpartum depression can bring sadness, guilt, or disconnection during a tender season. IFS, attachment, and mindfulness-based interventions provide support in softening shame and strengthening connection with self and child. Attachment, IFS, and interpersonal neurobiology approaches help with regulation and resilience. I also collaborate with prescribers around medication decisions and use diagnostic skills to differentiate postpartum depression from anxiety, bipolar shifts, or adjustment disorders.

Shanea McDaniel
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, APRN, PMHNP-BC
I provide compassionate, evidence-based care for women navigating a wide range of mental health concerns across the lifespan, including hormonal transitions, reproductive health changes, and perinatal mood and anxiety disorders such as postpartum depression and postpartum anxiety. My collaborative approach focuses on supporting emotional balance, reducing symptoms such as mood swings, anxiety, irritability, and overwhelm, and helping clients feel more grounded and supported during times of transition. When appropriate, I integrate medication management with supportive therapy, psychoeducation, and practical coping strategies to promote healing, resilience, and long-term emotional well-being for women at every stage of life.

Postpartum
Kelsey Ellis
Psychologist, Ph.D., LCP
Postpartum depression can bring sadness, irritability, guilt, or a sense of disconnection during a time when you may feel pressure to appear joyful and capable. Many women find themselves questioning their identity, capacity, or emotional responses while adjusting to the demands of new motherhood. In our work together, we focus on making sense of these shifts, reducing isolation, and rebuilding a steadier internal footing so you can care for yourself while caring for your child.

Topeka is Kansas's state capital and a city with an unusually significant mental health history—the Menninger Clinic, for decades one of the world's leading psychiatric institutions, was founded and based in Topeka before relocating to Houston in 2003, leaving a legacy of mental health awareness and professional expertise that still influences the community. The city is also historically significant as the location of the plaintiffs in Brown v. Board of Education, the landmark Supreme Court desegregation case, and the ongoing work of racial equity remains an important dimension of community life and mental health context. Stormont Vail Health provides behavioral health services, and a private therapy sector serves Topeka's mix of government, legal, and healthcare workers alongside the broader population. Common therapy concerns include depression, anxiety, racial justice and identity, economic stress in a mid-size state capital, and the particular challenges of a community working to reimagine its future.
