Middle Path Wellness Collective
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LMSW, LPC, PLPC
We specialize in supporting parents experiencing postpartum depression, including feelings of sadness, anxiety, irritability, disconnection, or not feeling like yourself after the birth of a child. Many parents feel pressure to be grateful or happy while privately struggling with overwhelm, guilt, or a sense of loss of identity. Postpartum depression is not a personal failure, it is a real and treatable experience that deserves compassionate care. Our approach provides a supportive, nonjudgmental space to process these emotions, strengthen emotional stability, and help parents reconnect with themselves and their role with greater confidence and self-compassion. Remember, the non-birthing caregiver can also experience postpartum depression symptoms.

Sara Deese
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, MCAP, LMHC-QS
Welcoming a new baby is often portrayed as a joyful time—but for many, it brings unexpected waves of sadness, anxiety, irritability, or even a sense of disconnection. If you’re struggling after birth, you're not failing—you're human, and you’re not alone. I help new moms and birthing parents navigate the emotional challenges of the postpartum period with compassion and evidence-based support. Whether you're experiencing postpartum depression, anxiety, or simply feeling overwhelmed, therapy can help you find relief, reconnect with yourself, and feel more confident in your new role.

Postpartum depression is a form of grief. The person is coming to terms with the reality that their old life is dead and will no longer be the same. The sadness of grief is an important component of Postpartum Depression and is necessary to help the person move towards acceptance and integrated meaning.

Karen Hammack
Psychologist, Ph.D.
While many pregnancies end in the joy of having a new child, it is the case that postpartum difficulties can exist - whether that looks like depression, disinterest, anxiety, or even concerns about lack of bonding. It is important to know you are NOT alone, and therapy can be a space to receive support, process thoughts and feelings, and problem solve as needed.
