Prenatal / Postpartum/ New Moms Counseling

Becoming a new mother is a journey that can be both full of joy and deeply overwhelming. Whether you are a pregnant woman looking toward the future with a mix of excitement and worry, or a new mom struggling with a sense of self, adjusting to new life demands, or facing feelings of depression or anxiety, please know that you are not alone! Adjusting to new life challenges, whether it’s hormonal imbalance, sleep deprivation, changes in your body, or the pressure in your partnership or marriage, may disrupt your daily life and add stress to an already challenging time.

Sometimes, these feelings ease with time, as you settle into your new routine. But other times, they may stay for a little longer, disrupting your daily life and adding stress to an already heavy load. It’s okay to feel uncertain, sad, or overwhelmed—reaching out for support is a courageous and significant step in caring for yourself and your growing family.

Counseling for pregnant and new mothers is a space designed just for you—a place where your feelings, no matter how complex or overwhelming, are truly heard and understood. Here, you can freely share your “unfiltered” thoughts without fear of judgment and navigate challenges of motherhood, partnership, and self-identity as a woman. This is your safe place, where every emotion is welcome and every feeling is valid.

During the perinatal period, it’s common to face emotional challenges, including the Baby Blues (postpartum period), Perinatal Depression, Perinatal Anxiety, OCD, PTSD. If you’re noticing signs of depression or anxiety, remember: you’re not alone, and there’s no shame in reaching out! Together, we can gently navigate this path helping you to restore your strengths, increase your self-compassion, build resilience, and bring back peace and balance in your life.
