Joanne Whalen, Psy.D., PMH-C
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Perinatal mental health is an area I feel most passionate about treating both as a psychologist and a parent.
I have supported women and birthing people during pregnancy, perinatal loss, infertility, IVF, birth trauma, and postpartum mood and anxiety disorders. I am Perinatal Mental Health Certified (PMH-C) through Postpartum Support International as well as trained in Mindful Birthing and Parenting.
I have worked directly in OBGYN clinics as well as in coordination with midwifery and OBGYN practices at a large university based hospital. I have completed research and published in the area of mindfulness based approaches for prevention of postpartum challenges. I have also presented on perinatal mental health issues to Midwifery and OBGYN providers groups at a large University based hospital system.
I have co-led a Mindfulness based group for women/birthing people during pregnancy for over a decade that focuses on wellness during pregnancy, reducing risk for postpartum depression and anxiety disorders, increasing social support and teaching skills to help navigate stress, pregnancy, labor, delivery and parenting.

Clear Path Counseling and Wellness Center
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
Brad provides trauma-informed therapy for postpartum depression and related perinatal mental health challenges, including postpartum anxiety, emotional overwhelm, identity shifts after childbirth, bonding difficulties, and the stress that can accompany early parenthood. These experiences can deeply affect emotional well-being, relationships, marriage dynamics, and overall family functioning.
Brad takes a holistic and compassionate approach to postpartum mental health, helping clients navigate the emotional, psychological, and relational changes that often occur after childbirth. Therapy provides a safe and supportive space to process feelings of sadness, anxiety, irritability, guilt, disconnection, or exhaustion, while also addressing the underlying stressors and life adjustments that may be contributing to distress.
As an experienced trauma therapist and EMDR therapist, Brad integrates EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma-informed counseling, emotional regulation strategies, and holistic therapeutic approaches to support healing and recovery. Treatment focuses on reducing emotional distress, restoring balance, strengthening coping skills, and helping clients reconnect with themselves, their relationships, and their sense of purpose.
Postpartum challenges often involve significant hormonal, emotional, and identity shifts, and they can be intensified by past trauma, lack of support, sleep deprivation, or ongoing stress. Brad’s approach helps clients explore both present-day stressors and deeper emotional patterns in order to support meaningful and lasting recovery.
Therapy is collaborative, individualized, and focused on helping clients feel supported, understood, and empowered during this important life transition. The goal is not only symptom relief, but also helping clients rebuild emotional stability, confidence, and connection within themselves and their family system.
Healing is possible. With the right support, clients can move through postpartum depression, restore emotional balance, and experience greater connection, joy, and stability in motherhood and family life.

Authentically You Counseling
Treatment Center, LCMHC
Scheduling at AYC is easy - schedule an intake as soon as next week. Finding the courage to be true to yourself despite the challenges you have to overcome is the ultimate goal of therapy. I believe one of the greatest grievances is living an inauthentic life with who you are. Regardless of what you’ve been through, if something is stopping you from living your truth - if fear prevents you from engaging in life the way you want or you are attempting to live up to some societal or personal expectation so far out of reach it hurts - If something is preventing you from living your fullest life, you can make a difference!
I want to help you reach your fullest potential according to your personal truth, values and beliefs. If we embark on this journey together, you will be the driver. I will simply help you see the different paths to reaching your end goal. In the end, you must be true to yourself in choosing the path you wish to take - or none at all.
Finding your truth sometimes means making a decision about whether or not to live your full truth. We can work together to help you explore your options to make the right choice for You. Making the call (or email) to start your journey is the first step - Let us start your journey together!
