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.

PSYCHe, PLLC
Psychologist, PhD, DBT-LBC™, LPC, PsyD, MSW, Marriage and Family Counselor, LCSW
Not all depressive symptoms are the same.
It is important that your provider asks the right questions. Often, the label “Depression” is tossed around in popular culture as a way to describe a feeling or a mood, i.e. “I’m depressed thinking about how much work I have to do this weekend” or, “After looking at my bank balance this morning, I’m completely depressed.” While these situations CAN trigger sadness, hopelessness, and/or other unpleasant emotions, they are NOT a Depressive Disorder.
We want to help rule out chemical, physical, environmental, and other factors to help you really get to the bottom of things.

Karen Nadel
Psychologist, Psy.D.
For moms, it can be upsetting and frightening to have feelings about motherhood that don’t seem “right.”
For some women, a morning run, a healthy diet and receiving help and support from family and friends are sufficient enough to get through the initial adjustment period. For others, talking to a therapist who specializes in dealing with new motherhood and postpartum issues can be comforting, relieving and enlightening.
Dr. Nadel has extensive education and training in post-partum disorders, understand that hormone changes, personal and family history, and social support are all vital factors in understanding and alleviating postpartum symptoms.
Common postpartum symptoms include:
Feeling overwhelmed and wondering if you should have become a mother in the first place
Feeling guilty due to high self-expectations
Not feeling “bonded” with the baby
Your thoughts are racing and you can’t quiet your mind
Feeling empty and numb as if you’re just going through the motions
Lack of focus and concentration
Being afraid that if you reach out for help, others will judge your inabilities
Thoughts of running away or leaving your baby behind
Being constantly in a state of worry

Mackson Psychology
Psychologist, Samantha Mackson, Psy.D.
The transition into parenthood can bring unexpected emotions, anxiety, and changes in your sense of self. I help new parents navigate postpartum depression and anxiety, manage feelings of overwhelm and self-doubt, and adjust to the challenges of this major life transition in a supportive, judgment-free space.
