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.

The transition to parenthood can bring immense joy — and also unexpected challenges. I specialize in supporting new parents who are experiencing postpartum depression, anxiety, or simply feeling overwhelmed by the demands of this new stage of life. In our work together, we focus on your emotional well-being, helping you reconnect with yourself and find balance in the midst of change. I also provide practical parenting coaching and relationship support to strengthen communication and connection within your family. My approach is warm, affirming, and grounded in the belief that caring for yourself is an essential part of caring for your child.

Fargo is North Dakota's largest city and a growing regional hub for healthcare, technology, and agriculture, with North Dakota State University bringing a significant student population and giving the city unusual economic and cultural vitality for its size. Cold, dark winters in one of the continental US's most extreme climates contribute meaningfully to seasonal affective disorder and depression, and geographic isolation from other major urban centers is a defining feature of life in the region. Sanford Health and Essentia Health both operate behavioral health programs in Fargo, and a private therapy sector serves the city's growing professional community. Common therapy concerns include seasonal depression, anxiety, student mental health at NDSU, relationship stress, and the particular challenges of mental health access in a northern plains city where winters are long and the nearest major metro is hundreds of miles away.
