Perinatal Mental Health (Pregnancy and Postpartum Support)

 

This isn't what you expected.

You're not feeling how you thought you would when you imagined being pregnant or having a baby. 

Maybe you're feeling deep sadness and apathy most of the time, doubtful of your ability to parent, disappointed in the reality of your days, and disconnected from your baby.

Or maybe you're filled with unshakeable worry or having disturbing intrusive thoughts about your baby, finding yourself doing extreme and unusual things to protect the baby.

You may be a queer family that is facing inherent challenges of building a family.

You’re adjusting to new roles and responsibilities, perhaps struggling to maintain your own identity. If you’re partnered, mental load may be creeping in. Maybe you’re struggling with body image. Not to mention, you're completely exhausted.

Prenatal and postpartum depression and anxiety affect around 15-20% of new mothers. That's staggering. Postpartum anxiety specifically often gets overlooked.

If you're reading this, you've probably already mustered a great deal of effort and courage to do some research to get help. Take the final step. You deserve support.

Let us help you navigate this incredibly rich, yet challenging period of life.
