Individual Therapy
Individual therapy services for women navigating pregnancy and postpartum
Pregnancy brings immediate and lasting changes. The moment you see a positive test, your life begins to shift.
As your journey unfolds, you may find yourself navigating a wide range of emotions, expectations, and decisions. From the realities of pregnancy and postpartum, to potential diagnoses, physical and emotional symptoms, the birth experience, feeding choices, and so much more. Each step can bring both challenges and uncertainty.
Therapy offers a steady, supportive space where you can process these experiences and feel understood. With the right support, you don’t have to navigate this journey alone.Therapy services can be offered virtually, to meet your individual needs and provide flexibility, or as walk-and-talk therapy in the Livermore/Pleasanton area.
Couples Therapy
Therapy services for couples navigating pregnancy and postpartum
Pregnancy and postpartum bring on many changes for the relationship. As you prepare to welcome and adjust to life with a new baby, even the strongest partnerships can feel the strain of shifting roles, expectations, and responsibilities.
You and your partner may find yourselves navigating new challenges, including how to communicate, differences in parenting or feeding decisions, changes in intimacy, sleep deprivation, or the emotional impact of pregnancy, birth, and postpartum recovery. These experiences are common, but they can still feel overwhelming and isolating.
Couples therapy offers a supportive space to slow down, reconnect, and strengthen your relationship during this transition. Together, we can work to improve communication, deepen understanding, and help you feel more like a team as you navigate this journey.
