Perinatal and Maternal Therapy
The transition into parenthood can be meaningful and deeply impactful, but it can also bring unexpected emotional challenges. During pregnancy and the postpartum period, many individuals experience anxiety, depression, overwhelm, or a sense of disconnection that can feel difficult to understand or talk about.
These experiences often arise within a complex mix of physical changes, shifting identities, and evolving relationships. You may find yourself navigating new expectations, changes in your sense of self, or feelings that don’t match what you thought this time would be like.
In therapy, we work to create a space where these experiences can be explored openly and without judgment. Together, we aim to understand the emotional and relational factors that shape your experience, while also making room for the full range of feelings that can accompany this transition.
This process may involve exploring your relationship to caregiving, your own early experiences, and the ways in which becoming a parent can bring both growth and vulnerability. Over time, therapy can help you feel more grounded, supported, and connected—to yourself, your child, and the people around you.
