Prenatal & Postpartum Depression Counseling

I am currently not accepting new clients at this time.

Prenatal and Postpartum Depression in Expecting and New Mothers

“I am supposed to be happy, right? Why am I so sad then?”

“I can’t sleep, I am so anxious!”

“I can’t hear the baby crying anymore. It makes me so upset!”

“I am a bad mother, a bad person”.

These are common complaints we hear from expecting and new mothers.

Unfortunately, maternal prenatal and postpartum adjustment and depression has been on the rise. Although much progress in the field of research and treatment has been done, there is still a stigma and expectations that new mothers should be blissfully happy.

What I see in new mothers who experience prenatal and postpartum depression could be:

• Feeling of being constantly tired
• Crying often for no apparent reason
• Anxiety about her own or the baby’s health
• Having difficulty sleeping or eating
• Confusion or lack of focus and concentration
• Having frightening thoughts
• Having a sense of loss and loneliness

I understand you. I can help.

As a former midwife, a maternal child nurse, lactation consultant, and facilitator of postpartum support groups for new mothers, I am heavily versed in the maternal-child field with experience that spans 40 years.

We will focus on recognizing your feelings and identifying triggers that impact them. We will personalize your road map and empower you to learn best techniques for managing your challenges.

You deserve to be hopeful. You deserve to be happy.
