Treatment For Postpartum Depression For California Moms

You’re sleep deprived, exhausted, overwhelmed, irritable, and about to lose your shit on your partner (who is sleeping peacefully while you have woken up for the 7th time that night.)

Your resentment is growing as your partner is preparing to return to work and you’re still trying to figure out how to feed your baby, take a shower, and keep your head above water. You’re overwhelmed without the support (or sleep) you need to function.

You knew postpartum would be hard but not this hard.

You’re numb, running on autopilot, barely able to find the energy to get out of bed — and yet somehow still responsible for keeping a tiny human alive. You stare at the pile of laundry, the sink full of dishes, the baby monitor flashing, and feel completely paralyzed.

Everyone else keeps saying "enjoy every moment," but you’re just trying to survive the next hour without breaking down. The sadness feels heavy, like you're dragging around an invisible weight no one else seems to notice. As your partner gears up to head back to work and people start assuming you’ve "got this," you’re still drowning — in tears you hide, in guilt you don’t talk about, in the fear that maybe you're failing at all of it. You love your baby, but that fierce, overwhelming joy you were promised feels out of reach — and you’re left wondering what’s wrong with you.

Spoiler: Nothing’s wrong with you.

Postpartum depression isn't a sign you’re a bad mom — it’s a sign you need real support, not more pressure to "be grateful" or "enjoy every moment."

Therapy Can Help.

You don’t have to keep pretending you’re okay when you’re drowning inside.

If you’re struggling with postpartum depression, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to navigate this heavy, overwhelming season by yourself. Postpartum depression isn’t just feeling a little "off" after having a baby. It’s a deep exhaustion, a sense of hopelessness, a constant ache that makes it hard to get through the day. And none of it is your fault.

Your brain and body have been through an incredible transformation—and it’s okay to need real support to heal.

Postpartum depression support is about so much more than just surviving each day. It’s about reclaiming your sense of self, finding small moments of peace again, and slowly building back the emotional bandwidth you’ve been missing. In our work together, I’ll meet you exactly where you are—whether that’s crying through a session, venting the impossible pressures you’re under, or figuring out how to feel something again after months of going numb. Therapy isn’t about fixing you. It’s about helping you remember that you were never broken to begin with.

While the focus of the pregnancy and birth experience tends to be on the baby, the reality is that moms often find themselves struggling with their own mental health, often with guilt, shame and isolation and need much more care and attention than a 6 week check up with their doctor.
