You Don’t Have to Do This Alone: Therapy for Pregnant and Postpartum Moms in Pasadena, CA
Struggling with anxiety, overwhelm, or identity loss during pregnancy or postpartum? Therapy for California Moms offers online therapy for Pasadena moms who need real support, not more pressure.
Motherhood Isn’t Always Magical — and That Doesn’t Mean You’re Doing It Wrong
If you’re pregnant or recently postpartum and living in Pasadena, you’ve probably heard all the advice — the baby books, the registry must-haves, the “soak it all in” comments from strangers. But what no one talks about enough is you. Your mental health. Your identity. Your need for rest, boundaries, and support.
At Therapy for California Moms, I specialize in working with women who are in the thick of pregnancy or new motherhood and feeling completely overwhelmed by it all. Whether you're dealing with postpartum anxiety, intrusive thoughts, birth trauma, or a sense of losing yourself — you're not broken. You're a mom trying to survive in a culture that expects you to do everything without falling apart.
Hi, I’m Alexa — a licensed therapist, mom of two, and the founder of Therapy for California Moms. I specialize in supporting women through the emotional highs and lows of pregnancy, postpartum, and early motherhood. Through virtual therapy across California, I help moms navigate anxiety, identity shifts, burnout, and everything in between — because you deserve care, too.
Signs You Might Be Struggling in Pregnancy or Postpartum
You don’t have to check every box to know you deserve support. Here are a few signs therapy could help:
You feel constantly anxious, overstimulated, or on edge
You’re not sleeping — even when the baby is
You find yourself crying in the shower or snapping at everyone you love
You feel guilty for struggling because “you wanted this”
You miss the version of yourself before motherhood
You feel like you’re drowning in pressure, expectations, and mental load
Sound familiar? You're not alone — and you're not failing.
Online Therapy for Moms in Pasadena, CA
I offer online therapy for moms across California, including in Pasadena. You don’t have to sit in traffic or try to find childcare just to get support. All sessions are virtual, so you can show up from your couch, your car, or wherever you can find a quiet moment.
Our work together isn’t about quick fixes or toxic positivity. It’s about making space for you — your fears, your anger, your grief, your hopes. Together, we’ll explore how to:
Manage anxiety, mood swings, and intrusive thoughts
Process birth trauma or pregnancy after loss
Rebuild your sense of identity and self-worth
Set boundaries with family, work, or social media
Make room for self-compassion in a world full of judgment
You won’t find cookie-cutter therapy here. I get how real and relentless motherhood can be — especially in those early months when everything is tender and raw. My clients choose this practice because they feel safe, seen, and understood. I’m not here to give you gold stars for holding it all together. I’m here to help you let go, fall apart when you need to, and rebuild something stronger and more grounded.
You Deserve Support — Not More Pressure
If you’re pregnant or postpartum and living in Pasadena, you don’t have to keep pushing through. Therapy is a place where you get to focus on you, not just the baby. Because caring for your mental health is caring for your family.
