Postpartum
Danielle Thurman (Roots and Wings Family Therapy)
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
This should be one of the most special times in your life. However, it often brings a storm of intense emotions, from overwhelming love to unexpected fear, rage, or deep sadness. If you are struggling with the transition to motherhood, you don’t have to do it alone.
My approach combines Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and Internal Family Systems (IFS) to provide a compassionate, safe harbor for your postpartum experience:
Understanding Your Inner World (IFS): Motherhood can feel like a warzone inside. A "part" of you may feel ecstatic, while another feels terrified, guilty, or disconnected. Using IFS, we will gently meet the part of you that is screaming, the part that is hiding, and the part that is trying to "fix" everything. We will move away from self-criticism toward curiosity, learning to calm your inner critic and protect your weary parts.
Reconnecting and Repairing (EFT): Postpartum anxiety and depression can leave you feeling isolated from your partner, your baby, or yourself. EFT helps you navigate these attachment shifts. We will identify the negative cycles—the "dance" that leads to disconnection—and replace them with secure, authentic, and compassionate bonds.
Instead of trying to "fix" you, this therapy is designed to validate your experience, help you understand your emotional needs, and empower you to show up as your authentic self. You are not losing yourself; you are integrating a new, complex, and beautiful identity.

Alina Hovsoyan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I support clients experiencing postpartum depression by creating a safe and empathetic space where they can openly share their thoughts, feelings, and challenges without judgment. I help them understand that postpartum depression is a common and treatable condition, providing psychoeducation about its emotional, physical, and hormonal components. I work with clients to identify triggers, develop coping strategies, and implement self-care routines that support both their mental health and their role as a parent. I teach evidence-based skills, such as cognitive-behavioral techniques, mindfulness, and emotion regulation, to manage negative thoughts and overwhelming feelings. Additionally, I assist in connecting clients with social supports, medical providers, or support groups as needed. Throughout treatment, I offer validation, encouragement, and practical tools to help clients recover, rebuild confidence, and strengthen their overall well-being while navigating the postpartum period.

Salt Lake City is the world headquarters of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and this religious and cultural reality profoundly shapes the city's therapy landscape — with therapists who can work thoughtfully within LDS family frameworks, navigate faith transitions, and understand the particular psychological pressures of a community where cultural and religious expectations are deeply intertwined serving an essential role. The city's growing tech industry — part of the 'Silicon Slopes' corridor — creates additional demand for therapists experienced with startup culture, high-performance careers, and the particular identity challenges of building secular professional lives in a deeply religious community. University of Utah Health and Intermountain Medical Center provide major institutional mental health resources alongside a well-developed private therapy community. Salt Lake City's significant LGBTQ+ population — navigating identity in a predominantly LDS cultural context — creates consistent demand for affirming therapists who understand the intersection of queer identity and religious community.
