Therapy for Pregnant + Postpartum Women in Westlake Village, CA
Therapy for Pregnancy, Postpartum, + The Stress of Modern Motherhood
Motherhood comes with constant pressure to "have it all together" + “enjoy every moment.” But no one talks about how lonely, exhausting, and disorienting motherhood can be — especially in those early months (or years).
You might be:
Crying in the shower but smiling at preschool pickup
Lying awake with anxiety and racing thoughts even when the baby’s asleep
Feeling totally out of control, snapping at your partner, then spiraling into guilt + shame.
Wondering if this is just what motherhood is “supposed to” feel like + how you’re going to keep doing this exhausting daily routine over + over without losing your shit.
These are real signs of postpartum anxiety, postpartum depression, rage, and burnout — and you deserve care, support, and compassion- not shame.
Therapy for Pregnancy + Postpartum in Westlake Village
Motherhood in Westlake Village might look good on the outside — quiet streets, manicured lawns, fancy strollers at the park. But behind the scenes, many moms are silently struggling. If you're feeling anxious, overstimulated, or completely disconnected from yourself lately, you're not the only one — and you're not failing. You're a mom in survival mode who deserves more support. Therapy can help.
Whether you’re navigating the emotional rollercoaster of pregnancy, drowning in the overwhelm of new motherhood, or just trying to hold it all together while silently unraveling — you don’t have to go through this alone.

Therapy That’s Centered on You
You spend your days caring for everyone else — but therapy is the one place where you don’t have to perform. It’s not selfish to take care of yourself. It’s necessary.
In our sessions, we’ll slow things down, tune into what you need, and work together to help you feel more present, less reactive, and more like yourself again.
You’re Not Broken — You’re Burned Out
The version of motherhood you imagined and the reality you’re living may feel worlds apart. But you’re not doing anything wrong. You’re just carrying too much — and no one was meant to do this alone.
If you’re a mom in Westlake Village who’s ready to feel supported (instead of stretched too thin), therapy might be the first step toward reclaiming yourself.
