Postpartum
Marina Goldenberg
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, LMHC
One in 5 mothers suffers from postpartum depression. Perinatal mental health conditions, which can occur in pregnancy, post-loss and postpartum, are the number one complication of childbearing. And the impact of these conditions isn’t always visible or obvious, but it undoubtedly affects the experience of motherhood, and also affects partners, family, friends, and children. While it can be scary to recognize that you’re struggling, especially in the face of all the messages we hear about what mothers *should* be, think, feel and do, if you are struggling, know that you are not alone, and that you deserve help and support. PMH conditions are treatable, and I use gentle empathy, humor and a hell of a lot of training and experience to help my perinatal clients cope with their symptoms, and discover who they want to be as they traverse the epic highs and devastating lows of what it means to be mothers.

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.
