Caitlin Fountain
Psychologist, PsyD
Postpartum depression can make it difficult to feel like yourself, enjoy your baby, or experience the connection you expected to feel during this season of life. Together, we’ll work to improve your mood, rebuild motivation, and rediscover meaning and joy in both life and parenting. Most importantly, there is nothing wrong with you, and you haven’t failed as a parent. You deserve support, compassion, and the opportunity to feel like yourself again.

Joanne Whalen, Psy.D., PMH-C
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Perinatal mental health is an area I feel most passionate about treating both as a psychologist and a parent.
I have supported women and birthing people during pregnancy, perinatal loss, infertility, IVF, birth trauma, and postpartum mood and anxiety disorders. I am Perinatal Mental Health Certified (PMH-C) through Postpartum Support International as well as trained in Mindful Birthing and Parenting.
I have worked directly in OBGYN clinics as well as in coordination with midwifery and OBGYN practices at a large university based hospital. I have completed research and published in the area of mindfulness based approaches for prevention of postpartum challenges. I have also presented on perinatal mental health issues to Midwifery and OBGYN providers groups at a large University based hospital system.
I have co-led a Mindfulness based group for women/birthing people during pregnancy for over a decade that focuses on wellness during pregnancy, reducing risk for postpartum depression and anxiety disorders, increasing social support and teaching skills to help navigate stress, pregnancy, labor, delivery and parenting.

Hannah Hayden with Sapphire Counseling
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
The transition into parenthood can bring unexpected emotional challenges. Postpartum depression can leave new parents feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, exhausted, anxious, guilty, or unlike themselves. Therapy offers a supportive, judgment-free space to process these experiences, strengthen coping skills, and help you reconnect with yourself while navigating the demands of parenthood.

Elisha S Lee
Counselor/Therapist, NCCA CTCC CPC
Postpartum Depression counseling and support services focus on helping new mothers navigate the complex emotional challenges that may arise following childbirth. PPD is a common mental health concern characterized by persistent feelings of sadness, anxiety, and fatigue that can hinder a mother's ability to care for herself or her newborn. We provide compassionate care, understanding, and professional treatment strategies to support mothers in their recovery from postpartum depression.
Personalized Treatment and Healing
* Counseling: Offering individual counseling sessions, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT), to address the specific emotional needs of each mother.
* Medication Management: Assessing and providing guidance on the use of medications when necessary, while considering breastfeeding and hormonal fluctuations.
* Support Groups: Facilitating support groups to provide a shared space where mothers can connect with others going through similar experiences.
* Partner and Family Involvement: Involving partners and family members in the recovery process, providing education to enhance their understanding and ability to offer support.
* Wellness and Self-Care Strategies: Encouraging practices that promote physical well-being and self-care to support overall mental health during the postpartum period.
Goals of Postpartum Depression Counseling
Our PPD counseling and support services strive to:
* Alleviate Symptoms: Reduce the severity of depression and anxiety symptoms, helping mothers regain emotional balance.
* Strengthen Mother-Child Bonding: Assist mothers in developing a nurturing bond with their newborn, which is essential for the child's development and the mother's emotional well-being.
* Restore Functionality: Empower mothers to manage daily tasks and responsibilities effectively, improving their ability to care for themselves and their families.
* Build Resilience: Foster resilience and coping skills to handle the stresses and demands of motherhood.
* Promote Recovery and Well-being: Support sustained recovery and a return to a state of well-being, enabling mothers to experience the joys of motherhood alongside its challenges.
Postpartum Depression is a treatable condition, and our goal is to support mothers in overcoming these challenges so they can enjoy motherhood to the fullest. We believe in providing a nurturing and non-judgmental environment where mothers can seek help without stigma. You are not alone, and with the right help, recovery is possible.
