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.

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.

Heather Clifft
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
While it is typical to experience mild mood changes during or after the birth of a child, 15-20% of women experience more significant symptoms of depression or anxiety. The term "postpartum depression" is most frequently used; however, many women actually experience a variety of challenges including depression and anxiety during pregnancy and postpartum, pregnancy or postpartum OCD, Postpartum Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (many times referred to as "birth trauma"), bipolar mood disorders, or postpartum psychosis. Symptoms can appear anytime during pregnancy and during the first year after childbirth. I use effective and well researched treatment approaches targeted to your specific needs to help you recover.
