You love your baby. So why does this feel so hard? You thought this chapter would be filled with joy, bonding, and those sweet baby snuggles everyone talks about. But instead, it feels like something is just...off.

​

Maybe you're constantly on edge, overthinking every decision, or carrying a mental load so heavy it’s hard to breathe.
Maybe you feel terrified to leave the house - or you can’t relax when someone else holds the baby. Maybe you cry more than you expected. Maybe you don’t feel like yourself at all.

 

And the hardest part?

You’re wondering if this is just what motherhood is supposed to feel like.

Signs You Might Benefit from Postpartum Therapy

​

You don’t have to be in crisis to need support. Therapy can help if you're noticing things like:

​

• Feeling like you have to do everything exactly right or it will all fall apart

• Struggling to sleep - even when the baby is finally down

• Constant worry that something bad might happen

• Guilt for needing space, help, or rest

• Snapping at your partner or crying more than usual

• Obsessively researching every little thing just to feel in control

• Feeling like you’re going through the motions, but not really here

 

Therapy Can Help You Feel Like You Again

​

As therapists who specializes in maternal mental health, we know how vulnerable this season can feel. Therapy gives you a place to exhale - to be seen and supported without judgment.

​

Together, we’ll work on:

​

• Understanding your triggers and reframing any negative thoughts

• Processing any experiences that have left you feeling unlike yourself

• Setting boundaries with compassion (even with the people you love)

• Releasing perfectionism and embracing the version of parenting that feels right for YOU

• Rebuilding your confidence as a mother and as a person

​

...and so much more.

​

This is not about “fixing” you. This is about supporting the real you through a major life transition—so you can feel steadier, more present, and more connected to the moments that matter.

​
