Postpartum
Megan Noren
Psychologist, Psy.D.
The postpartum period can bring profound emotional changes, and it may be difficult to reconcile what you're experiencing with what you expected motherhood to feel like. You may be feeling persistently sad, anxious, irritable, disconnected, overwhelmed, or unlike yourself. You might also be struggling with guilt, self-doubt, or the pressure to manage everything while caring for your baby and adjusting to a new identity. You don't have to navigate these feelings alone, and experiencing them doesn't mean you're failing as a parent. Therapy offers a compassionate space to make sense of what you're going through, explore the emotional changes and expectations surrounding motherhood, and reconnect with yourself. Together, we can work toward greater self-compassion, a stronger sense of support, and a more manageable path through this transition.

Haley Busch
Psychologist, Ph.D., L.P.
Postpartum depression is often not what new parents expect. Alongside low mood it can bring rage, intrusive thoughts that frighten you, numbness toward the baby, or grief for your former life that feels forbidden to say out loud. I hold advanced training in perinatal mental health through Postpartum Support International, and one of the first things we do is distinguish postpartum depression from postpartum anxiety, from adjustment, and from the plain exhaustion of caring for an infant — because those call for different things. Much of the early work is simply making it speakable, since shame is what keeps most parents from getting help during the first year.
