Postpartum depression is the most common complication from pregnancy. 1 in 7 women experience postpartum depression after giving birth, and as many as 1 in 5 women experience perinatal depression during pregnancy, the postpartum period, or both. Without treatment, postpartum depression symptoms can last for years. But talking to someone can help. In fact, whether your symptoms are mild or severe, postpartum depression is a condition that can be effectively treated with therapy.
It can be hard to know if postpartum depression therapy is right for you, or where to start. You may not know whether you’re experiencing symptoms of postpartum depression or something else — like baby blues, postpartum anxiety, or other related conditions.
Depression symptoms can also begin during pregnancy, but it can be easy to miss the signs because stress, lack of sleep, and hormonal shifts are so common for all pregnant women and new mothers. If your symptoms are impacting your quality of life, talking to a therapist specializing in postpartum depression treatment can help you sort through what you’re feeling and build important skills to navigate early motherhood.

Therapy is a collaborative process based on a trusting relationship between you and your therapist. This strong therapeutic alliance allows you to talk freely and openly in a supportive, unbiased, and non-judgmental environment. Together, over a series of appointments, you and your therapist will challenge current patterns that keep you feeling stuck as well as identify and work towards fulfilling goals.
Currently, Two Chairs offers psychotherapy services to those over the age of 18. While we don’t currently offer psychiatric or adolescent services, our therapists can help work with outside providers for your care.
Research shows that the therapeutic alliance between you and your therapist is the best predictor of successful treatment outcome. Psychologists define the therapeutic alliance as the strength of the therapist-client relationship and how aligned you are on goals. Studies show that individuals with a strong therapeutic alliance with their therapist are more productive at work, have more fulfilled relationships, can cope more effectively with daily stressors, and engage in less risky behaviors.
