You imagined motherhood would be hard.
But you did not expect it to feel this all-consuming.
Online Therapy for Postpartum in Chicago and Across Illinois
Postpartum can be an exhausting and disorienting time.
Somewhere between feeding schedules, carrying the mental load, and running on oh-so-little sleep, you don’t feel like yourself anymore.
Nobody told you...
How deeply you can love your baby while still missing your old life
How lonely maternity leave can feel
The irritability and rage that can come out of nowhere
How complicated it can feel to be grateful for your body and frustrated with it at the same time
How hard it can be to ask for help
Whether you're crying more easily, losing sleep to worry, constantly anxious about your baby's sleep, feeding, or development, or simply feeling overwhelmed by the realities of motherhood, you're not alone.
Therapy can provide a space to process what you're experiencing and get the support you deserve.
Everyone asks about the baby. Few people ask how you're doing.
We will.
We care about how you're doing because supporting you is one of the best ways to support your family. We'll help you build your village of postpartum support, whether that's a lactation consultant, pelvic floor therapist, or other trusted providers. We'll also help you find ways to connect with other families who understand what you’re going through.
There is so much pressure to bounce back, enjoy every moment, and do motherhood the "right" way. Our approach isn't about helping you become a perfect parent. It's about helping you feel more like yourself again while navigating the realities of this season.
Together, we'll make space for...
any and all emotions, without judgment
your identity outside of motherhood
realistic expectations of yourself
permission to set boundaries
your relationship with your partner
rest and support
