Reproductive Mental Health
Feeling Overwhelmed, Anxious, or Disconnected While Pregnant, Postpartum, or During Hormonal Changes in Perimenopause?
Many women experience emotional and mental health challenges during pregnancy, postpartum, or peri/menopause. You may notice:
-
Persistent sadness, hopelessness, or tearfulness
-
Anxiety, intrusive thoughts, or physical tension
-
Sleep problems, brain fog, exhaustion, or difficulty focusing
-
Guilt, irritability, frustration, or loss of interest in activities you once loved
-
Feeling disconnected from yourself, your baby, or loved ones
-
Isolation, loneliness, or simply not feeling like yourself
Women with ADHD may be particularly vulnerable during these times. Hormonal shifts, sleep disruption, and increased demands of parenting or life transitions can intensify attention challenges, emotional regulation difficulties, and overwhelm, making support even more important.
If any of this resonates, you are not alone, and professional support is available.
Types of Perinatal/Postpartum Issues:
Anxiety
OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder)
Depression
Trauma
Bipolar Disorder
Psychosis
I help women navigate perinatal mental health challenges, including postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, OCD, and trauma. I also support women experiencing emotional and mental health changes during peri- and menopause, including those with ADHD who may feel especially overwhelmed during hormonal transitions.
In therapy, we focus on:
-
Understanding and processing emotional, hormonal, and neurodiverse challenges
-
Developing practical tools to manage anxiety, mood swings, overwhelm, and attention difficulties
-
Reconnecting with your sense of self, body, and life
