Postpartum Depression
Kelsey Ellis
Psychologist, Ph.D., LCP
Postpartum depression can bring sadness, irritability, guilt, or a sense of disconnection during a time when you may feel pressure to appear joyful and capable. Many women find themselves questioning their identity, capacity, or emotional responses while adjusting to the demands of new motherhood. In our work together, we focus on making sense of these shifts, reducing isolation, and rebuilding a steadier internal footing so you can care for yourself while caring for your child.

Postpartum Depression
Alabaster Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Bringing a new life into the world is supposed to feel joyful, but for many women, it can also bring unexpected sadness, anxiety, numbness, or feelings that are hard to explain and even harder to admit out loud. At Alabaster Counseling, we specialize in supporting women through postpartum depression and the full spectrum of perinatal mental health concerns, including prenatal anxiety, postpartum anxiety, and the emotional challenges that can arise during pregnancy and in the months following birth. We want you to know that what you are experiencing is real, it is common, and it does not make you a bad mother. Through compassionate, evidence-based therapy, we help you process your feelings, find your footing in this new season, and rediscover the warmth and connection you deserve with yourself and your baby. You reached out, and that took courage. We are so glad you are here.

8 Years Experience
Online in Chesapeake, VA Virginia
Chesapeake is the largest city in Virginia by land area — a mostly suburban and semi-rural community spread across the southern Hampton Roads region — with a therapy landscape shaped by its proximity to Naval Station Norfolk and the broader military community, as well as the particular stresses of a sprawling suburb where long commutes and limited walkable community can contribute to social isolation. The city's large African American population and its place within Hampton Roads' racially complex social fabric create demand for culturally affirming therapists who work with racial identity, community resilience, and intergenerational family dynamics. Chesapeake Regional Medical Center provides institutional mental health resources alongside the broader Hampton Roads healthcare ecosystem. Many Chesapeake residents access therapy through the wider Norfolk-Virginia Beach metro, given the city's geographic extent and integration with the regional mental health network.
