Maybe you feel disappointed in your provider, the hospital or even your body or your baby. The people around you might try to cheer you up by pointing out the positives in the situation, but the negatives and traumatic pieces keep creeping up and getting in the way of your adaptation to motherhood.

You eagerly awaited your baby's arrival. You developed a vision for how you expected your birth story to go. Unfortunately, that wasn't the reality.

Pregnancy and Postpartum Therapy

You don't have to do it alone.

Postpartum Stress Can Interfere with Joy

  • Maybe your birth went well but you've found that your adjustment to parenthood hasn't been what you expected.

  • Maybe the concerned thoughts you've noticed have morphed into constant "What if" questions that result in a sense of fear, imposter syndrome, or paralysis.

  • Maybe you’re noticing anger outbursts and wondering if this constitutes postpartum rage. 

  • Maybe you feel disappointed or disconnected from your baby or partner and wonder if this is postpartum depression.
