Maternal Mental Health & Postpartum Therapy
Compassionate therapy through pregnancy, postpartum, and the identity shifts of motherhood.
Motherhood can stretch you in every direction – physically, emotionally, relationally. As your world adjusts to a new rhythm, it’s normal to feel unsure, overwhelmed, or unlike yourself. You may be deeply grateful and still find yourself craving more space, more clarity, or more support.
This season of life is powerful, complex, and deeply human -you don’t have to navigate it alone.
You’re adapting to a new version of life - and a new version of you.
Even when things are “going well,” this chapter can feel intense. There’s the learning curve of parenting, the physical recovery, the shifting relationships, and the mental load that never seems to turn off.
You might notice:
- Constant mental chatter or difficulty relaxing
- A mix of joy and grief as your identity shifts
- Feeling overstimulated, easily irritated, or emotionally flat
- Struggles with sleep, decision fatigue, or self-doubt
- Changes in how you relate to your partner or support system
These experiences don’t mean something is wrong with you. They mean you’re responding to a major life transition – one that deserves care, not silence.
What we support:
We work with mothers, birthing parents, and caregivers through every phase of this journey – not just the six weeks after birth.
You might be:
- Managing anxiety during pregnancy or adjusting to unexpected changes
- Recovering from a difficult birth or traumatic medical experience
- Processing a loss, fertility struggles, or complicated emotions around family building
- Feeling stretched thin by the mental and emotional demands of parenthood
- Wondering how to reconnect with your sense of self, values, and relationships
What Therapy Can Offer You:
At Renewed Wellness, we approach maternal mental health with curiosity, flexibility, and compassion. Our therapists meet you where you are – emotionally, physically, and logistically.
We support you in:
- Making space for your feelings, even the contradictory ones
- Learning how your nervous system responds to stress - and how to care for it
- Processing trauma, disappointment, or identity shifts
- Navigating complex dynamics with your partner, family, or workplace
- Rebuilding connection with your body and inner self
- Developing realistic tools that support your energy and priorities
Your therapy may include somatic strategies, trauma-informed modalities like EMDR or Brainspotting, or simply a consistent space to be heard and supported.
You’re not starting from scratch. You’re growing from experience.
The goal of therapy isn’t to “fix” anything – it’s to help you feel more like yourself again, with more tools, more self-compassion, and more clarity.
We’re here to walk alongside you as you navigate this chapter – honoring the strength you already carry, and offering support for the parts that feel heavy.
Ready to feel more steady, more supported, and more connected?
We’re here to help. Whether you’re pregnant, postpartum, or parenting young children, you deserve a space to care for your mental health, too.
