Postpartum Depression & Perinatal Therapy in Montebello & Newport Beach, CA

Compassionate Support for New and Expecting Mothers

You’re Not Alone—Even If It Feels That Way

Becoming a mother can be beautiful, but it can also feel overwhelming, isolating, and emotionally exhausting.

You may be experiencing:

  • Sadness, emptiness, or frequent crying

  • Anxiety, racing thoughts, or constant worry about your baby

  • Feeling disconnected from yourself or your child

  • Guilt for not feeling “happy enough”

  • Irritability, anger, or emotional overwhelm

  • Difficulty adjusting to your new identity as a mother
