Deb, Munni
Psychologist, PhD
The transition to motherhood can be both meaningful and challenging. If you are experiencing sadness, anxiety, overwhelm, guilt, or difficulty adjusting after the birth of a child, you do not have to navigate it alone. I provide a supportive space to help new or existing mothers process their experiences, strengthen coping skills, and reconnect with themselves during the postpartum period.

Tatiana Turo-Handy, PsyD., PMH-C
Psychologist, PsyD. PMH-C
Postpartum depression and postpartum anxiety can make the early months of parenthood feel overwhelming, lonely, or frightening. Many new parents experience intense worry, sadness, irritability, racing thoughts, or a sense of disconnection from themselves or their baby. As a bilingual (Spanish/English) psychologist and PMH‑C certified clinician, I provide compassionate, evidence‑based therapy to help individuals understand what they’re experiencing, reduce emotional distress, and regain a sense of stability and confidence.
Therapy offers a supportive space to explore the challenges of sleep deprivation, shifting identity, relationship changes, intrusive thoughts, and the pressure to “feel okay.” Together, we work toward strengthening coping skills, rebuilding emotional balance, and helping you feel more grounded during this vulnerable and transformative time.

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.

Carter Doyle
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, PMHNP-BC, EMT-P
Perinatal and postpartum mood changes aren’t a moral or spiritual failure — they’re a whole-body, whole-life adjustment. I offer compassionate, nonjudgmental support for birthing parents who are experiencing sadness, irritability, scary thoughts, or identity shifts after welcoming a baby. We’ll look at hormones, sleep, trauma history, and support systems, and we can discuss safe medication options when indicated. My goal is to help you feel like yourself again while honoring how big this transition is.
