Tatiana Turo-Handy, PsyD., PMH-C
Psychologist, PsyD. PMH-C
Postpartum depression and postpartum anxiety can make the early months of parenthood feel overwhelming, lonely, or frightening. Many new parents experience intense worry, sadness, irritability, racing thoughts, or a sense of disconnection from themselves or their baby. As a bilingual (Spanish/English) psychologist and PMH‑C certified clinician, I provide compassionate, evidence‑based therapy to help individuals understand what they’re experiencing, reduce emotional distress, and regain a sense of stability and confidence.
Therapy offers a supportive space to explore the challenges of sleep deprivation, shifting identity, relationship changes, intrusive thoughts, and the pressure to “feel okay.” Together, we work toward strengthening coping skills, rebuilding emotional balance, and helping you feel more grounded during this vulnerable and transformative time.

Annie Harton Kassell
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Nobody warned you it could feel like this. The exhaustion that sleep does not touch. The fear that arrives out of nowhere. The sense that you should be happy and cannot find your way to it. This is not a character flaw and it is not a lack of faith. I specialize in the perinatal season, and I can help you name what is happening and find your feet again.

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.
