Postpartum
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.

Postpartum
Shira Collings
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Postpartum depression can feel heavy, disorienting, and lonely—especially when the realities of parenthood don’t match the stories we’re told. I offer a warm, nonjudgmental space rooted in a feminist, neurodiversity-affirming, and queer-affirming approach. Together, we’ll honor your truth, explore your emotional landscape, and support your healing in a way that centers your values, identity, and lived experience.

Postpartum
Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Postpartum depression can bring sadness, guilt, or disconnection during a tender season. IFS, attachment, and mindfulness-based interventions provide support in softening shame and strengthening connection with self and child. Attachment, IFS, and interpersonal neurobiology approaches help with regulation and resilience. I also collaborate with prescribers around medication decisions and use diagnostic skills to differentiate postpartum depression from anxiety, bipolar shifts, or adjustment disorders.

Postpartum
Maria Jose Rendon
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I work with new and expecting mothers navigating postpartum depression and anxiety, including the intrusive thoughts and OCD-like symptoms that can accompany the postpartum period and often go unspoken. I've received specialized training through Postpartum Support International, in both English and Spanish, and I bring that alongside my broader background in CBT and OCD treatment to help clients understand what they're experiencing and build practical tools to manage it. When helpful, I collaborate with other providers involved in your care, such as your OB-GYN or psychiatrist, so your treatment is coordinated rather than happening in isolation. I offer sessions in English or Spanish.
