Postpartum Therapy in Las Vegas & Summerlin

Finding Strength in Motherhood

Postpartum depression affects approximately 1 in 7 mothers, yet many suffer in silence due to stigma or lack of understanding.

Figuring out how to be a “good mom” can be daunting and overwhelming. But in my years of motherhood and my years as a therapist, here’s what I’ve learned: It starts with us.

The healthier WE are, the healthier THEY can be. The single best thing we can do to benefit our children is to work on ourselves. Navigating the challenges, anxieties, and fears of motherhood can sometimes feel like too much. And that’s where therapy can come in.

Postpartum therapy allows you to lay it all out on the table and work through the challenges with the help of someone not only with therapy expertise but motherhood experience as well!

At The Peaceful Mind Counseling Center, we provide specialized postpartum depression help through evidence-based therapeutic approaches tailored to your unique experience. Our therapists have both professional expertise and personal experience with postpartum challenges, allowing us to offer compassionate, effective support when you need it most.

Whether you’re experiencing persistent sadness, anxiety, intrusive thoughts, or simply feeling disconnected from your baby, our postpartum therapy services create a judgment-free space for healing.

It doesn’t matter how slow you go, as long as you don’t stop.

Why should you get therapy for postpartum depression and challenges?

You deserve to feel empowered and at peace in motherhood, and that isn’t always easy.

After giving birth to my firstborn, I felt a lot of overwhelm. Nursing was difficult for me and I felt panic every time she woke for a night feeding, which made me feel even more overwhelmed and inadequate. I felt that I was not only failing as a mom, but I was failing because I couldn’t shake these thoughts and my experience with Postpartum Depression.

I’ve personally experienced the pain and fear of motherhood and know just how powerful therapy and counseling can be!

Postpartum therapy can help you:

Manage overwhelm and pressure
Increase self-awareness
Set healthy boundaries
Improve body image, self-worth, self-talk & self-care
Learn to build your “mom tribe” and more!

We owe it to ourselves as mothers to find the peace and joy that can, and should, come from motherhood!

It is only in our darkest hours that we may discover the true strength of the brilliant light within ourselves that can never, ever, be dimmed.

How therapy can help with postpartum depression

Therapy is awesome. It’s so empowering! You get to come in, lay it all out on the table, process it, and together, we’ll figure out your game plan.

We believe that self-awareness is the key to unlocking emotional and behavioral change. It’s a process that can be incredibly rewarding and, at times, surprisingly fun. We’ll shed some tears and have some laughs and along the way, and when you leave you’ll feel stronger and more at peace.

Therapy is a safe haven where you can feel heard, understood, and validated. We’ll dive into your experiences and feelings and help you navigate your way out of it.

Our goal is to provide an environment where we can openly process your thoughts, feelings, emotions, and behaviors without fear of judgment, and you can leave feeling empowered, confident, and free.

Postpartum therapy isn’t just about treating depression—it’s about helping you reclaim your sense of self during one of life’s most significant transitions. Our therapists in Las Vegas utilize cognitive-behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, and attachment-based approaches to address the full spectrum of postpartum mood disorders.

We understand that seeking help takes courage, especially during this vulnerable time. That’s why we offer both in-office and telehealth options, making postpartum therapy accessible even with a newborn at home. Through our specialized care, you’ll develop practical coping strategies, strengthen your maternal intuition, and gradually restore the joy and confidence that every mother deserves to experience.

I enjoy working with clients of all ages and believe in meeting a client where they are at in order to tailor treatment to meet their individualized needs and work towards their specific goals.

I have a Bachelor’s degree in Social Work from Northern Arizona University and a Masters in Social Work from UNLV.
