Lilah Handler, LCSW 

Therapist

 

Becoming a parent can be one of life’s most transformative and tender experiences and it can also bring unexpected emotional challenges. I am dedicated to supporting individuals through the complex physical and emotional landscape of pregnancy, postpartum, and transitioning to parenthood. With advanced training in perinatal mental health, I work with clients experiencing perinatal mood and anxiety disorders, birth trauma, fertility challenges, and the identity shifts that often accompany parenthood.

My approach is gentle, relational, and trauma-informed, drawing from therapies like CBT, mindfulness, and attachment-based work. I believe healing happens in connection and my goal is always to create a space where you feel safe to be your full, authentic self.

You don’t have to walk this journey alone. Whether you’re in the depths of postpartum anxiety, grieving a loss, or simply feeling overwhelmed, I’m here to support you with care and presence every step of the way.
