Perinatal Therapy of Bergen County
Motherhood at any of its stages can be exciting yet for many can bring up mixed emotions.
It is supposed to be the happiest time of your life, but it can also be scary, stressful and downright taxing on your body.
Are you considering becoming pregnant, are pregnant, or have recently had a child?
I am here to help and support you on your motherhood journey.
Often moms can feel anxious, nervous about being pregnant and about the birthing process, they can feel tired and emotionally drained, or can at times become anxious and/or depressed prior to or after the birth of their child.
It is important to be honest and aware of how you are feeling, and to reach out for support if you are dealing with perinatal or postpartum anxiety or depression.
Perinatal mood and anxiety disorders can occur when a woman is pregnant through 12 months following the birth of their child.
Each stage can present challenges and emotions that some expecting and new moms will benefit from professional support for.
Interventions can include but are not limited to:
Psychotherapy
Psychoeducation
Anti-Anxiety and Relaxation Techniques
Preparing Pregnant Women for the Birthing Process and Entering Motherhood
Screening and Support for any Anxiety or Mood Disorders that Antenatal (Expecting) Moms and Post-Partum Moms may be experiencing
