Specialized Therapy for Parents and Women in Transition
Oakland, CA | Online Throughout California.
Evidence-based support for trauma, infertility, pregnancy, postpartum, and parenting
You’re doing your best—but inside, you’re exhausted.
Whether you’re struggling with postpartum anxiety, grief from infertility, or trauma you’ve carried for years, the pressure to hold it all together feels overwhelming.
You're not alone- and you don’t have to keep carrying this silently.
You might be…
Struggling to overcome past trauma or pain
Facing challenges in your postpartum experience, such as anxiety, depression, or OCD
Parenting a child with medical issues
Feeling overwhelmed by your new role as a parent
Seeking to heal from a negative birth experience
Recovering from a recent miscarriage
Navigating the depths of your infertility journey
Approaching empty nesthood without a clear direction for what comes next
Working to break the cycle of pain or abuse inherited from your parents
This may be the first time you are thinking about talking to someone about what you are experiencing.
Entering this new territory can feel daunting, but you’re searching for relief from anybody or anything that could help. Some of your thoughts and feelings haven’t been said aloud, and it’s hard to know who to trust. It takes courage to be here and step toward feeling like yourself again.
