Many New Mothers have a difficult time dealing with post-partum issues. Combination of rapidly changing hormone levels, lack of sleep, and frequently social support issues may create a very challenging environment for a woman.
My treatment approach includes:
- Interview
- Testing including Beck’s Depression and Anxiety Inventory
- Resources and family structure evaluation
Together, we will develop a personalized treatment plan which may include:
- Anxiety and Depression therapy
- Assistance with application for short term disability (if necessary)
- Facilitate improvements in the social support structure
- Family sessions (if necessary)
- Stress management techniques
