MJB Wellness LLC
Hypnotherapist, Certified Hypnotherapist and Coach, Certified Sexological Bodyworker, Sex Educator, Certified Reiki
Much like loss and grief, PostPartum Depression is an issue that can be resolved through Hypnotherapy. Once we understand the specific triggers for the various symptoms, we can alter the client's responses, installing positive triggers. We can even alter the body's responses, going into the part of the subconscious mind that controls hormones and other physical processes and change settings, getting the body to reset things to the optimum levels. This is a technique that I have used frequently for many different issues and it works powerfully.

Suzanne St. John Smith
Counsellor/Therapist, M.A., M.A. (Psych.) FEA, C.C.C Relationship and Family Therapist; Life Coach
When working with clients experiencing postpartum depression, I offer a compassionate, supportive space to process the complex emotions that often accompany this period — from sadness, guilt, and overwhelm to loss of identity and connection. Together, we work to reduce shame, rebuild a sense of self, and strengthen both emotional and practical supports. My approach integrates gentle exploration, psychoeducation, and evidence-based strategies to help clients regulate mood, restore balance, and reconnect with themselves and their baby. Above all, my goal is to ensure they feel seen, understood, and not alone in their healing.
