Perinatal & Postpartum Therapy in Sacramento, CA

Support through pregnancy, postpartum, and early parenthood

Support through pregnancy, postpartum, and early parenthood

This season of life can feel tender, overwhelming, and all-consuming—often all at once.

You may have expected things to feel more natural, or more joyful. Instead, you might find yourself feeling anxious, unsure, or stretched thin in ways you didn’t anticipate.

Many of the parents I work with are thoughtful, capable, and deeply care about doing things “right.” And still—it feels hard.

You might be experiencing:

  • Anxiety, overwhelm, or constant worry

  • Sleep deprivation and chronic stress

  • A shift or loss in your sense of identity

  • Pressure to meet expectations (your own or others’)

  • Changes in your relationships

  • Very little time or space for yourself

  • Lingering feelings from pregnancy, birth, or postpartum

Why this makes sense

Pregnancy and early parenthood are major life transitions—physically, emotionally, and relationally.

It makes sense that you might feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure of yourself while navigating so much change.

How I work

Therapy offers a space that is just for you.

Together, we’ll:

  • Process your experience of pregnancy, birth, or postpartum

  • Make space for the full range of your emotions

  • Reconnect you with your identity, needs, and values

  • Build tools to cope with anxiety, stress, and sleep deprivation

  • Support your relationship and communication

  • Gently separate external expectations from what feels right to you

My approach is relational, validating, and grounded in evidence-based practices.

What therapy can help you move toward

  • Feeling more grounded and steady

  • A clearer sense of who you are—within and beyond parenthood

  • More confidence in your parenting

  • Stronger, more connected relationships

  • A way of parenting that feels aligned with your values

  • More compassion for yourself in this season
