Therapy For Pregnant + Postpartum Women in San Diego, California

Book Your First Session + Start Feeling Supported 🌿

San Diego sunshine doesn’t erase the heaviness of postpartum depression, anxiety, and the pressure to hold it all together.

A woman with dark curly hair, wearing a white sweater and brown pants, sitting on a wooden chair in a cozy, modern interior with a white brick wall, woven wall art, a vase with dried pampas grass, and a small gold wire side table with books.

You built a life you love, but motherhood still hit harder than you expected. No one prepares you for the anxiety, the overstimulation, or how quickly you lose track of yourself.

Therapy Helps You Feel Supported, Grounded, and Like Yourself Again without the Guilt.

If you’re struggling with postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, mom rage, guilt, resentment, overwhelm, or the crushing mental load…
you’re not alone — and you don’t have to keep pretending you’re okay.

Therapy for Moms in San Diego, CA 🌊

From the outside, you’re doing everything “right.”
Inside, you’re exhausted and barely holding it together.

Maybe you’re…

  • ✔ Crying in the shower because it’s the only moment you’re alone

  • ✔ Snapping at your partner and feeling guilty afterward

  • ✔ Terrified something bad will happen to your baby

  • ✔ Feeling disconnected from yourself

  • ✔ Overstimulated from the second you wake up

  • ✔ Carrying the entire mental load for your family

Postpartum depression and postpartum anxiety don’t care how much you love your baby.
They show up uninvited — and they make you feel like you’re failing when you’re actually overwhelmed and unsupported.

Therapy is where you finally get to exhale.

Why San Diego Moms Work With Me

I support high-achieving moms throughout San Diego, Encinitas, Solana Beach, and Carlsbad who are navigating the parts of motherhood no one warned them about.

My clients are often:

🌿 Pregnant and anxious about the huge transition ahead
🌿 Newly postpartum and shocked by how isolating it feels
🌿 Dealing with postpartum depression or postpartum anxiety and feeling ashamed to say it out loud
🌿 Perfectionists who “hold it all together” until they can’t
🌿 Moms simmering with guilt, resentment, or rage they never expected

You deserve support that matches the level of pressure you’re under.

FAQs: Postpartum Therapy in San Diego

Do I need to be a brand-new mom to start therapy?

No. I work with women during pregnancy, postpartum, toddler years, and beyond.

What if I’ve tried therapy before and it didn’t help?

Fit matters. Because I specialize in moms, therapy is focused on what you’re actually navigating — not generic coping skills.

Do you take insurance?

I’m an out-of-network provider. Many moms choose private pay because of the privacy, flexibility, and high-quality care.
If you’d like, I can provide a superbill for possible reimbursement.

How do I know if it’s the right time to start therapy?

If something in you is whispering, “I can’t keep doing this,” therapy can help. You don’t have to wait for a breaking point.
