What is Postpartum Anxiety?
Hey there, new mama! I'm Dr. Emily Turinas, and I've provided therapy for many new moms just like you, helping navigate the wild ride of early motherhood. I know you're probably thinking, "Therapy for new moms? Who has the time for that between diaper changes and sleep deprivation?" Trust me, I get it. But here's something that might surprise you: investing in mental health therapy for new moms can have amazing benefits not just for you, but for your little one too.
​
The Science Behind New Mom Mental Health
Let's talk research on therapy for new moms for a sec (don't worry, I'll keep it brief!). Studies have shown that when new moms seek therapy, it can lead to:
-
Stronger parent-child bonds: When you're feeling good, it's easier to connect with your baby.
-
More secure attachment: Your little one picks up on your emotional state more than you might realize.
-
Better cognitive outcomes for kids: Yep, your mental health can actually impact your child's brain development!
-
Reduced anxiety and behavioral issues in children: Your emotional wellbeing sets the tone for the whole family.
​​
Let's take the next step together
Feeling overwhelmed by the sudden changes that come with parenthood is completely normal. As a perinatal therapist—and a mom myself—I understand the unique challenges new parents face. Whether you're navigating sleepless nights, breastfeeding struggles, or simply trying to find a moment for yourself, seeking therapy as a new mom is a crucial step toward emotional well-being. I offer therapy for moms in a nonjudgmental space where you can explore your feelings and develop personalized coping strategies to support your mental health and well-being during this transformative time. Our therapy sessions for new moms cover a range of topics, including maternal mental health, postpartum anxiety, and building a support network.
You deserve to rediscover yourself
In the whirlwind of diaper changes, feedings, and sleepless nights, it's easy to lose sight of who you are outside of being a mom. Balancing your new identity with your personal aspirations can be challenging. My therapy approach integrates proven therapeutic techniques to help you reconnect with your passions, set healthy boundaries, and carve out essential time for self-care. Therapy for new moms can help you thrive both as an individual and a mom.
Investing in yourself is an investment in your kids
Therapy can be one of the best investments in your kids you can make. Research has shown that when moms seek out their own therapy it can enhance parent-child bonding, develop more secure attachments, decrease in intergenerational trauma, help develop and model healthy coping strategies, and even increase cognitive and academic outcomes! We also know that when mom's have address their own depression, anxiety, and mental health it can help their kids emotions and behaviors too!
