Postpartum
Liberation Therapy
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC
Postpartum depression can feel isolating, frightening, and full of shame, especially when you think you are supposed to feel happy. Therapy is a place where you can talk honestly about what you’re feeling without judgment. We focus on support, nervous system regulation, identity changes, and the very real emotional transition into parenthood.

Becoming a parent can be one of the most joyful and disorienting experiences at the same time. I'm passionate about supporting new mothers through postpartum depression with warmth and zero judgment, helping them feel seen, supported, and reconnected to themselves during this vulnerable season.

Paula Kirsch
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CST
The postpartum period is supposed to feel like one thing, and sometimes it feels like something else entirely. If you are struggling, that does not mean you are failing. It means you need support that actually meets you where you are. I work with new mothers navigating the emotional, relational, and physical shifts that come after having a baby, with honesty and without judgment.

Amherst is a suburban town of Buffalo and home to the North Campus of the University at Buffalo, one of the largest universities in the State University of New York system, bringing a substantial student population and the mental health demands that come with a large public research university. The town's generally affluent suburban character contrasts with the significant challenges faced by neighboring Buffalo, and many residents access mental health services in the broader Buffalo metro area alongside local providers. UB's counseling services are a primary resource for students, and a private therapy sector serves Amherst's established families and professional residents. Common therapy concerns include student mental health, academic and identity development stress at a large research university, anxiety, family and relationship issues, and the transitional challenges of navigating life in a prosperous suburb adjacent to a struggling urban center.
