Angelica Esposito - AE Therapy
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW, EMDR Therapist
Postpartum depression can feel isolating and overwhelming, but you don’t have to navigate it alone. If you’re struggling with feelings of sadness, anxiety, or disconnection after giving birth, I’m here to support you. EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) can be an effective approach for mothers experiencing postpartum depression or anxiety. The emotional challenges following childbirth can sometimes be tied to traumatic experiences, whether related to the birth itself, early motherhood, or previous unresolved issues. EMDR helps process these emotions, reducing distress and enabling you to regain a sense of calm and control. By addressing and reprocessing difficult memories or emotions, EMDR can support your healing journey, helping you move toward emotional balance and a deeper connection with yourself and your baby. You deserve to feel supported and empowered as you navigate this phase of life.

Michelle Directo
Registered Psychotherapist, MDiv, RP, ExA
After the delivery of your child, the body continues to go through changes, physiologically, emotionally, psychologically, and socially. These changes may feel confusing, overwhelming, and undesirable. Intense emotions of joy, anxiety, fear, sadness, and happiness may be felt all at once. The lack of sleep, pain associated with breastfeeding, lack of support, crying frequently are all symptoms that are important to talk about. Dads can also experience depression. Let us work together to help you how to best manage these changes.

Alessia Zita | Zita Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapy (Qualifying)
Do you often feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or disconnected since giving birth? Many new parents struggle with sadness, anxiety, or emptiness in ways that can feel confusing or isolating, especially when society tells us we “should” feel joy. You may find yourself carrying heavy emotions while trying to care for your baby and yourself.
These feelings are not a sign of failure—they are natural responses to the intense changes and demands of parenthood. What matters is how you respond when these emotions arise. Together, we can explore your experiences, support your emotional well-being, and help you find ways to feel more grounded, connected, and lighter over time. You are feeling this for a reason. Let’s explore why, and what comes next.

Sara Tawadros
Registered Psychotherapist, M.Div in Clinical Counselling
Postpartum depression is a serious and common condition that can affect new mothers after childbirth. It is characterized by persistent feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and exhaustion, and can interfere with a woman's ability to care for herself and her baby. If left untreated, postpartum depression can have serious consequences for both the mother and the child. Therapy can be an effective treatment option for postpartum depression. It can provide a safe and supportive space for new mothers to discuss their feelings, develop coping strategies, and improve their overall mental health. Therapy can also help mothers to build a strong support network and to find ways to manage the challenges of parenting. It is important for new mothers to seek help if they are experiencing symptoms of postpartum depression, as it is a treatable condition.

Donald Hill
Registered Psychotherapist, M.Div., M.Th., RMFT, RP
It is estimated that between 15 to 20 of Canadian pregnancies end in miscarriage, according to the Society of Obstetricians and Gynecologists of Canada. A miscarriage can be profoundly troubling for a couple because as soon as you know you are pregnant, you begin to form an emotional attachment to your fetus. Some couples have been trying to have a child for many years and are devastated when the pregnancy fails. Couples can also find themselves in limbo, as they have geared up to become a parent, only to have this possibility ripped away.
An abortion is another type of pregnancy loss that can have lasting consequences for women. Guilt, shame, grief, loss, and feelings of abandonment can surface later in life. Finding a therapist who appreciates the depth of despair and anxiety associated with these losses is useful. Book today for a consultation if you are experiencing this type of loss.

Burlington is one of the most affluent cities in the Greater Toronto Area — situated between Hamilton and Oakville along the western shore of Lake Ontario — with an affluent, family-oriented population and a therapy culture shaped by the stresses of high-income suburban family life, corporate careers, and the pressure to maintain prosperity across generations. Joseph Brant Hospital provides institutional mental health resources alongside a well-established private therapy community serving the Alton Village, Tansley, and Millcroft neighbourhoods. Burlington's relative homogeneity is changing as immigration diversifies the population, with growing South Asian and East Asian communities beginning to shape a broader range of therapy demand. The city's proximity to Hamilton's therapy ecosystem and the broader GTA network means specialist care is generally accessible for those willing to travel or use telehealth.
