Navigating pregnancy, postpartum, fertility challenges, or infant loss? You’re not alone. 1 in 5 moms and 1 in 10 dads suffer from postpartum depression. As a licensed therapist (LCSW) and certified perinatal mental health professional (PMH-C), I offer compassionate, evidence-based support for individuals and couples experiencing the emotional complexities of the perinatal journey—from fertility struggles and birth trauma to postpartum anxiety and grief.

Why Work with a PMH-C Therapist?

At Bloom Within Counseling, we understand that the perinatal period—spanning fertility, pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and early parenting—is a time of profound change. While it can be filled with joy and growth, it also brings complexity, vulnerability, and, for many, emotional pain. Working with a PMH-C therapist (Perinatal Mental Health-Certified) ensures that you receive care grounded in both clinical expertise and deep understanding of these unique experiences.

Specialized Support for Life’s Most Tender Moments

As a therapist certified in perinatal mental health, and with professional experience supporting families through NICU stays and infant loss, I offer a compassionate and knowledgeable space for individuals and families facing some of the hardest chapters of their lives. My background allows me to meet you wherever you are. With sensitivity, without judgment, and with tools that support healing.

You might be navigating:

• Anxiety or depression during pregnancy or postpartum

• The trauma of a NICU stay

• Grief following miscarriage, stillbirth, or infant loss

• Birth trauma or complicated delivery experiences

• Emotional challenges related to fertility struggles or pregnancy after loss

• A difficult adjustment to parenting or identity shifts

These experiences are deeply personal and you don’t have to go through them alone.

What Makes PMH-C Care Different?

The PMH-C credential reflects specialized training in the emotional, physical, and psychological challenges of the perinatal period. I use evidence-based approaches tailored to your needs, including cognitive-behavioral strategies, trauma-informed care, and grief support. I also understand the medical and hormonal factors that affect perinatal mental health and how these intersect with your relationships, identity, and daily functioning.

A Space to Process, Heal, and Reconnect

Therapy at Bloom Within Counseling is about creating space for your truth—whether that’s grief, fear, anger, confusion, or hope. Together, we work to:

• Make sense of your emotions and experiences

• Process trauma or loss at your own pace

• Rebuild trust in your body and your inner wisdom

• Strengthen coping tools and emotional resilience

• Support connection: with yourself, your child, and your support system
