A guide to
your goals

Nurtured Path offers individual psychotherapy dedicated to relief of distress during the child-bearing years. All of our clinicians have specialized training in perinatal mental health.

 

This includes treatment for a myriad of experiences that can cause emotional distress during this important phase of life, including: 

  • Perinatal mood and anxiety disorders like postpartum depression, depression during pregnancy, or anxiety

  • Infertility

  • Miscarriage/infant death

  • Termination for medical reasons 

  • Reproductive decisions

  • Termination decisions/care

  • Traumatic labor/birth

  • Medically complicated pregnancy

  • Adjustment to motherhood and fatherhood and developmental, parenting, or discipline concerns

  • History of trauma and how it affects parenting and relationships

​

Our approach engages your head and your heart.

Human nervous systems respond to keep us emotionally and physically safe.  Understanding these responses with the nurturing presence of an experienced therapist can decrease distress.  Our passion is to nurture you and throughout that process, and helping you find the tools you need to overcome the obstacles that stand in the way of a happy, healthy, and purpose-filled life.
