MATERNAL MENTAL HEALTH

I work with women who are experiencing postpartum depression and anxiety during their pregnancy, around the time of birth, and through their child's first year. Providing emotional support, I help my clients manage their symptoms while creating a healthy attachment with their baby. Working individually or doing dyadic therapy with your infant, I provide psychotherapeutic interventions that are centered on improving maternal competence and the quality of bonding between the mother and the baby. 

Below is a list of some of mental health disorders and concerns that I treat: 
•    Postpartum Depression
•    Postpartum Anxiety
•    Trauma related to birth experience
•    Hopelessness and overwhelming fatigue
•    Feelings of shame, guilt, or inadequacy
•    Difficulty bonding with your baby
•    Withdrawal from family or friends
•    Intense irritability or anger
