The baby is finally asleep. Everyone says you should sleep too - but you are lying in the dark, heart racing, wondering why this feels so hard.
Pregnancy, postpartum, and new parenthood can bring feelings no one warned you about. You are not broken, and you are not alone.
This might be for you if:
- Anxiety or intrusive thoughts have moved in and will not leave
- You feel rage, numbness, or grief where you expected joy
- You don't feel like yourself, and that scares you
- You don't feel like you are doing a good job of parenting
- Everyone asks about the baby, and no one asks about you
How therapy helps:
- Put a name to what is happening - perinatal anxiety and depression are common and treatable
- Learn tools to calm your body and quiet the spiral
- Reconnect with yourself, your partner, and your baby at your own pace
You deserve support too - we will find a time to talk.
