Postpartum Depression
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.

Postpartum Depression
Rachael Keyser, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD
The transition into motherhood can bring a mix of joy and difficulty, and postpartum depression is more common than many realize. I work with new mothers to address feelings of isolation, sadness, and overwhelm, offering therapeutic support and practical strategies to regain emotional balance and well-being.

Postpartum Depression
Suzanna Freerksen
Psychiatrist, MD
As a psychiatrist I know a lot about what medically happens to the body during and after pregnancy, and I have educated myself in multiple psychotherapy modalities for when medications aren't the answer or are not effective enough on their own. My psychiatry practice is focused on you and how you can best achieve your goals, whether that is medication, psychotherapy, lifestyle changes, or a combination of all three. Let's work together to help you get 'unstuck'. I use evidence-based medicine to help reassure or adjust medications during pregnancy and postpartum. Medications don't always need to be stopped if there is already exposure, since it is often "risk vs. risk"-- the risk of the baby being exposed to the medication versus the risk of untreated depression/anxiety in the pregnancy and postpartum period. There is good evidence that quality psychotherapy, such as I provide, can minimize the need or the dose required to treat depression in the postpartum period. I can also give guidance around breastfeeding and medications.

Postpartum Depression
Dr. Ann Becker-Schutte; Healthy Balanced Life Psychology, LLC
Psychologist, Ph.D.
New mothers expect to have a wonderful experience when they bring their babies home. If you are living with postpartum depression, that wonderful experience can feel like a nightmare. In therapy, I work to help new mothers find their way through postpartum depression back to healthy, connected coping.
