The early days of parenthood can be filled with so much joy, but postpartum anxiety can make it hard to relax and truly enjoy the experience. You might feel like you’re always on edge, unable to shake the worry no matter how hard you try. Maybe you’re constantly concerned about your baby’s health and safety, or even the smallest decisions feel completely overwhelming. You might notice physical signs, like your heart racing, feeling restless, or struggling to sleep—even when your baby is peacefully sleeping. It’s also common to question if you’re doing a good job as a parent or feel hesitant to reach out for help because it seems too difficult.

If this resonates with you, please know that you’re not alone. Postpartum anxiety is more common than you might think, and it’s something that can be treated. Postpartum anxiety & depression therapy provides a warm, supportive space to explore these feelings, develop healthy coping strategies, and start quieting the worries that feel all-consuming. At Matrescence Therapy, we’re here to help you rediscover the joy of parenthood and regain confidence in yourself as you navigate this new chapter.
