Therapy for Moms in Menlo Park, CA 🌿
You’re Holding It All Together — But Inside You’re Barely Hanging On ✨
In Menlo Park, it feels like every other mom has it figured out — the top-rated preschools, the perfect schedules, the beautiful family outings. From Atherton to Palo Alto, Portola Valley to Stanford, it can look like everyone else is thriving.
But behind closed doors?
🌿 You’re crying in the bathroom between feedings.
🌿 Snapping at your partner, then drowning in guilt five minutes later.
🌿 Lying awake with racing thoughts, even when your baby finally sleeps.
🌿 Parents or in-laws critiquing your every choice.
🌿 Missing the version of yourself who felt grounded and whole.
👉 You don’t have to keep pushing through this alone. Therapy can help you feel supported, steadier, and more like you.

Postpartum Depression + Postpartum Anxiety in Menlo Park Moms 🌸
Motherhood here may look perfect on the outside, but inside so many moms are silently struggling. Postpartum depression and postpartum anxiety are incredibly common — and they don’t care how put-together your life looks.
You might notice:
Guilt or shame that you’re not enjoying motherhood like you thought you would.
Racing thoughts or constant worry that won’t shut off.
Feeling irritable, angry, or overstimulated by even small things.
Trouble sleeping, even when the baby is asleep.
Feeling disconnected from your baby, your partner, or yourself.
This isn’t weakness — it’s what happens when you’re carrying too much without enough support. Therapy gives you a space to breathe, unload, and rebuild.

FAQs: Therapy for Moms in Menlo Park
What is postpartum depression?
Postpartum depression is more than “baby blues.” It includes sadness, irritability, guilt, or detachment that don’t fade away on their own. It’s common and treatable.
What is postpartum anxiety?
Postpartum anxiety often looks like racing thoughts, constant worry, or dread. Many moms struggle with sleep even when their baby rests. Therapy can help calm the cycle.
Do you only see moms in Menlo Park?
I work with moms across all of California through secure online therapy. Whether you’re in Menlo Park, Palo Alto, Atherton, or beyond, you can access support.
Do I need to be “bad enough” for therapy?
No. Many moms look like they’re “doing fine” on the outside but are quietly struggling. Therapy is here for you no matter where you are.
How much does therapy cost?
Sessions are $275 for 50 minutes. I don’t offer sliding scale, but many moms use out-of-network insurance benefits for partial reimbursement.
