I have experience in working with individuals dealing with trauma, past history of abuse and/or childhood abuse, anxiety, depression, grief, attachment, and maternal mental health (prenatal and postnatal).
So often we think of ourselves in ways that others' have decided that we are based on their own assumptions. When we begin to realize that we are more than what others' have said, we begin to peel back the layers and discover ourselves. Can that be scary and intimidating? Yes. There are times in life where talking to someone might benefit you. "We must not allow other people's limited perceptions to define us." Virginia Satir

As a suicide and self-harm survivor I know firsthand the power depression, anxiety and trauma can have on our lives. After spending 10 months in a residential treatment program, I knew I was called to help restore the lives of others. Finding a therapist you can be your most authentic, honest self with can be exhausting! I have worked with thousands of patients over the years, and I am often told that talking to me is like talking to a friend. I contribute this to my laid-back, humorous, genuine personality…I strive to be the kind of therapist I needed all those years ago.

Pregnancy, Prenatal, Postpartum Therapists

What are the most effective ways to address pregnancy, prenatal, and postpartum concerns?

The most effective way to address pregnancy, prenatal, and postpartum concerns is by finding a therapist who has prior experience helping other patients overcome the challenge being faced. For example, a marriage and family therapist may have experience helping couples adjust to their new relationship dynamic. An anxiety specialist may have experience helping with phobias or illness anxiety related to the child’s health. A depression specialist may have experience treating postpartum depression.

When should I seek treatment for prenatal or postpartum concerns?

Pregnancy and the postpartum period involve intense physical and mental changes; a degree of upset and instability is normal. However, if these changes impair daily functioning, it may be time to seek help. This distinction is pertinent for postpartum depression: A period of teariness, irritability, and distress is difficult but normal in the one to two weeks after childbirth (sometimes called the “baby blues.”) But if feelings of sadness and hopelessness persist beyond that period, the person should seek treatment.

How do I manage worries during pregnancy or the postnatal period?

A therapist can help patients develop the tools they need to manage anxieties during or after pregnancy. Cognitive behavioral therapy can help people identify and reframe harmful patterns of thought, and change their behaviors. Other techniques and skills can allow people to develop acceptance, psychological flexibility, self-compassion, communication skills, and more.

Are there specific medications for postpartum depression?

In 2019, the FDA approved the first medication designed to treat postpartum depression. The medication is called brexanolone and is delivered intravenously by a medical professional over the course of a few days. However, typical antidepressants, which are more accessible, can also treat postpartum depression. The disorder is often best treated through a combination of medication and therapy.
