Postpartum Mood and Anxiety Disorders

The postpartum period can bring intense emotional vulnerability. Hormonal shifts, sleep disruption, caregiving demands, and identity change can combine in ways that feel destabilizing. Postpartum mood and anxiety disorders are common — and highly treatable.

Virtual therapy allows you to attend sessions from home — even during a nap window — reducing barriers to care during a season when support matters most.

Signs of Postpartum Depression or Anxiety

If symptoms last more than two weeks or interfere with daily functioning, therapy can help.

  • Persistent sadness or hopelessness
  • Excessive worry about the baby
  • Intrusive thoughts
  • Irritability or anger
  • Difficulty bonding
  • Feeling overwhelmed or inadequate
  • Sleep challenges beyond newborn care
