Postpartum
Dr. Bridget Williams
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
How can you feel so off, sad, unlike yourself during "the most wonderful time of your life"? Maternal mental health means a pregnant or postpartum woman’s overall emotional, social, and mental well-being. 1 in 5 women experience mental health challenges while trying to conceive, navigating infertility, surviving loss, during pregnancy, labor and delivery, and into postpartum. No matter where you are on your motherhood journey – infertility, miscarriage, infant loss, new motherhood, surviving toddlers to teens, child loss, or navigating an empty nest – I am here to support you.

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.

Postpartum
Haley Busch
Psychologist, Ph.D., L.P.
Postpartum depression is often not what new parents expect. Alongside low mood it can bring rage, intrusive thoughts that frighten you, numbness toward the baby, or grief for your former life that feels forbidden to say out loud. I hold advanced training in perinatal mental health through Postpartum Support International, and one of the first things we do is distinguish postpartum depression from postpartum anxiety, from adjustment, and from the plain exhaustion of caring for an infant — because those call for different things. Much of the early work is simply making it speakable, since shame is what keeps most parents from getting help during the first year.

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.
