Postpartum Depression
Alysha Bernstein
Registered Psychotherapist, RP(qualifying), MACP
After my own experience postpartum as a psychotherapist I realized there is an intense need for therapists to better understand and support people through their postpartum journey. If I struggled as someone trained and experienced in psychotherapy what about the new parents who do not have that knowledge? I want to give back and be a support at such a beautiful but very difficult time.

Perinatal mood disorders may also be referred to as Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders (PMAD). Perinatal mood disorders are related to mood symptoms that occur during pregnancy or up to one year postpartum. The most common types of mood disorders are depression, dysthymia, anxiety, and postpartum post-traumatic stress disorder. There can also be Bipolar Disorder, Postpartum Psychosis, or substance-induced mood disorders that may appear.
Forms of psychotherapy that have been found to be helpful and effective in helping treat perinatal mood disorders include: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Interpersonal Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, and other forms of supportive psychotherapy. These forms of therapy can help focus on emotions and thought patterns, but also behavioral aspects. These approaches can help increase and rediscover the bond between parent and child, and also between partners.
