Modern Therapy For Pregnant + Postpartum Women in Los Gatos, CA
What If Motherhood Isn’t What You Thought It Would Be?
Support for Postpartum Anxiety and Depression in Los Gatos, CA
If you’re a mom in Los Gatos who thought you’d feel happier by now, you’re not alone.
You’ve built a beautiful life in one of the most sought-after cities in the Bay Area. Maybe you’re surrounded by good schools, stroller-friendly streets, and every modern parenting gadget on the market — but inside? You’re crumbling.
The truth is, pregnancy, postpartum depression and postpartum anxiety don’t care how “put together” your life looks from the outside. You can love your baby and still feel completely overwhelmed, angry, disconnected, or like you’ve lost yourself entirely.
This isn’t just exhaustion. It’s something deeper. And it deserves support.
You’re not failing — you’re in survival mode.
As a therapist who specializes in maternal mental health, I hear versions of this story every day:
“I should be grateful, but I’m miserable.”
“I didn’t expect this much anger and overstimulation.”
“I feel like I’m disappearing, and no one even notices.”
Motherhood is hard everywhere — but especially in high-pressure, high-functioning areas like Los Gatos. Many of the moms I work with have demanding partners, demanding schedules, and absolutely no room to fall apart.
That’s where therapy comes in.
Therapy for Los Gatos Moms Who Are Done Pretending They’re Fine
My approach isn’t surface-level support or toxic positivity. I help you get to the root of what’s going on, so you can actually feel better — not just “cope.”
Whether you’re dealing with:
Postpartum depression that lingers longer than expected
Postpartum anxiety that makes you question everything
The mental load of motherhood that never turns off
Relationship stress, resentment, and communication breakdowns
Rage, irritability, and overstimulation that no one warned you about
Pressure from your parents or in-laws on how to parent “the right way”
I create a safe, judgment-free space where you can speak openly and be supported fully.
A Little About Me
I’m Alexa — a licensed therapist, mom of two, and founder of Therapy For California Moms. After graduating from UC Santa Cruz, I spent years living in the Bay Area, and even though I’m now based in Southern California, this part of the state still feels like home. So many of the clients I work with in Los Gatos, Saratoga, Cupertino, and San Jose are high-achieving moms who are great at doing it all for everyone — but have no one truly supporting them.
You don’t need to figure everything out alone.
You don’t need to be stronger, better, or more patient.
You just need a space to be fully seen — and that’s what therapy offers.
Virtual Therapy That Fits Your Real Life
All sessions are 100% online, so whether you’re nursing, nap-trapped, hiding in your car for 50 minutes, or juggling work and preschool pickup, therapy is still doable.
You don’t have to commute across town or find childcare.
You just have to take the first step — and I’ll meet you there.
