Postpartum Depression Therapy for High-Achieving Women

Reconnect with yourself and rediscover joy in motherhood

Motherhood is often painted as a time of bliss, but for most high-achieving new mothers, it feels isolating, overwhelming, and heavy. Postpartum depression (PPD) is more than just the “baby blues”. If you feel stuck in sadness, disconnected or struggle to find joy in the little things, you are not alone! You do not have to navigate this alone.

What is Postpartum Depression?

Postpartum depression is common, and yet deeply misunderstood. It is not a sign of weakness or failure, but rather a medical condition that can impact:

  • Emotions: Persistent sadness, hopelessness, or irritability.

  • Thoughts: Thinking you are unworthy, disconnected or doubting your abilities as a mother.

  • Body: Fatigue, sleep disturbances, or loss / gain of appetite.
