Prenatal and Postpartum Depression and anxiety

Experts estimate that up to 20% of mothers will experience symptoms of anxiety and depression either during pregnancy or in the  Postpartum period. These symptoms are more severe than Baby Blues, and can greatly affect a woman's confidence and ability to function in her new role. Therapy has been shown to be highly effective in alleviating these symptoms. If you are struggling, just not feeling like yourself, or having thoughts that are scaring you, please call us. The first step is reaching out for help. 

Bereavement following pregnancy loss

The loss of a baby due to miscarriage, stillbirth, or newborn death is something no one should ever have to face. Unfortunately, it does occur, and when it does the effects can be devastating. Postpartum depression and anxiety can occur following a pregnancy loss, and differs from usual symptoms of  grief. If you have suffered a pregnancy loss and are concerned about the way you are feeling, please call. Supportive therapy can help.

Beyond Postpartum

Anxiety and depression can occur with any life transition, not just motherhood. Relationship issues, feeling stressed and overwhelmed in your daily life responsibilities, managing your work-life balance-- all are a potential source of unhappiness in the modern woman's life. Thankfully, supportive therapy can help.
