Postpartum Depression
Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with mothers in the months and years after birth who feel “off” in ways that others don’t always see. Many of the mothers I see look like they are managing from the outside, while feeling anything but okay on the inside. You may love your baby and still feel overwhelmed, numb, irritable, or not at home in your own life.
Some have had medically complicated or frightening births, NICU stays, pregnancy or birth complications, or babies with ongoing medical needs. Others had births that looked fine from the outside, but something about the experience or the aftermath has left them feeling unlike themselves.
Postpartum experiences can include persistent sadness or emptiness; anxiety, racing thoughts, or a sense of dread that does not match what is happening; intrusive thoughts or images, including fears about something happening to your baby; replaying the birth or hospital stay and wondering if you did something wrong; irritability or feeling on edge with your baby, partner, or other children; difficulty sleeping, eating, or caring for yourself even when you technically have the chance; feeling disconnected from your baby, your body, or the person you used to be; shame or guilt that you are not enjoying this time the way you thought you would; and loneliness even when you are rarely alone.
For mothers whose babies had NICU stays or ongoing medical issues, there may also be ongoing vigilance and fear, medical trauma, and the sense that you never really got a chance to just be home with your baby. I have spent more than three decades sitting with women in the perinatal season, and I know how varied “postpartum” can be.
In our work together, we slow things down and make room for your full experience without judgment. Your birth story, your mood, your fears, and your exhaustion are all welcome here. From there, we explore small, realistic shifts that help you feel more anchored, supported, and less alone in this season of your life. You do not have to be in crisis to reach out, or to prove that you are “struggling enough.” Feeling off, unlike yourself, or quietly overwhelmed is enough.

Postpartum Depression
Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
Postpartum depression is often missed, minimized, or explained away as “just hormones” or part of the adjustment to parenthood. But for many people, it feels much heavier than that—disconnection, irritability, numbness, overwhelm, intrusive thoughts, or a sense that you’re not yourself. And all of this can be happening while you’re expected to care for a newborn, function on little sleep, and present like everything is okay. The pressure to feel grateful or happy can make it even harder to talk about what’s actually going on.
At Nour Counseling, we take postpartum experiences seriously. We help you understand what’s happening in your mind and body, while also supporting you in navigating the day-to-day reality of this stage. This includes building practical supports around rest, emotional regulation, and realistic expectations—not idealized versions of parenting that don’t hold up. We also make space for the cultural messages around motherhood, including what you’ve been taught it should look like and how that may be impacting your experience. This is not about pushing you to feel differently—it’s about helping you feel more supported, more grounded, and more connected to yourself as you move through this transition.
