When you decided to have a baby, you never imagined getting pregnant would be this difficult. Each step on this path has filled you with disappointment, frustration, and heartache, and you feel hopeless. You feel like you'll never be the parent you always hoped to be. The heartache of watching friends and loved ones get pregnant "so easily" while you struggle with negative pregnancy tests, pregnancy loss or fertility treatments is getting to be too much. You can't concentrate at work and don't enjoy what you used to, and you're not as happy as you used to be.

* Please note I am not currently accepting new clients and I do not keep a waiting list. Change is part of life, but nobody said it would be this hard. You are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, and listening to those negative thoughts playing in your head. You can’t stop judging yourself or figure out how to do things differently. Possibly life took a turn, such as death, illness, trauma, or relationship difficulties. Or a transition is ahead such as pregnancy, marriage, or an empty nest, a time that you think you should feel happy. Though, you have mixed feelings, which brings you back to that self-judging cycle.

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.
