You’re in the right place

1 in 5 moms, and 1 in 10 dads, experience postpartum depression or anxiety. And most of us have a harder time adjusting to parenthood than we expected.

I want you to know that feelings of worry, sadness, frustration and uncertainty are common. I can support you with adjusting to this new phase of life and all the challenges that come along with it.

 

Pregnancy, Postpartum
& Beyond

While we anticipate the joys of parenthood, we don't expect it to feel this hard. It can be overwhelming, scary and lonely. Maybe you’re feeling lost, guilty, not good enough, irritable or full of rage, disconnected from yourself or your partner, and confused about why you’re feeling this way.

You don’t have to struggle alone. I can help.

By talking about your experiences in a safe, nonjudgmental space, you can feel less alone and less overwhelmed, and together we can find ways for you to feel more grounded again.
