Questions about pregnancy & postpartum counseling
Can I start counseling during pregnancy?
You can contact our office during pregnancy or after birth. Tell us what kind of support you are seeking so we can discuss counselor fit and availability.
Is postpartum depression the same as the baby blues?
Baby blues describes brief mood changes after birth. Severe feelings or symptoms lasting longer than two weeks may indicate postpartum depression. Contact a healthcare provider for assessment; you do not need to wait if you are concerned. Read NIMH’s guide to perinatal depression ↗
Which counselor should I see?
Contact our office about your pregnancy or postpartum concerns. We can discuss the appropriate counselor and current appointment options for your needs.
Can counseling replace my pregnancy or postpartum medical care?
Continue care with your medical provider. Discuss mood changes, physical symptoms, and medication questions with them; counseling can be one part of your support.
What if I need urgent help?
For thoughts of suicide or a mental health crisis, call or text 988. If you or your baby are in immediate danger, call 911. Hallucinations, delusions, or severe confusion after birth need emergency medical care. Do not wait for an office appointment.
