Helping hopeful and new mothers navigate their challenges throughout their motherhood journey. Gentle, patient, and supportive care.
The journey to and through motherhood doesn’t always go as expected. Feeling challenged or unhappy doesn’t mean you’re failing – it means you are human.
Navigating through infertility struggles can be an especially difficult and can feel like an emotional rollercoaster. Words can’t capture the deep, painful feelings and disappointment that come from unsuccessful attempts at conception.
When you are longing for a child, it’s normal to feel sad, angry, or depressed. Your feelings are valid. In therapy, we’ll talk about strategies for regulating emotions and how to cope through the process.
Miscarriage or stillbirth can be one of the most heartbreaking events in a parent’s life. You might struggle with intense sadness and a sense of loss for the future you had planned.
We understand that you are experiencing grief, uncertainty, and a range of other emotions at this time. We are here to support you through the grief in the way that you need most.
The IVF journey can be a test of resilience, marked by anticipation, uncertainty, and a range of emotions. The medical procedures, the waiting, and the hope can create an emotional whirlwind that’s hard to navigate.
It’s okay to feel overwhelmed, anxious, or even disconnected at times. We can help you find strategies to cope with these feelings, nurture your mental well-being and provide support throughout your IVF journey.
Postpartum depression can cast a shadow over what should be a joyous occasion, leaving you feeling isolated and overwhelmed. These emotions do not define you or your ability to be an excellent mother.
If you are experiencing intense sadness, anxiety, or guilt, feeling disconnected from your baby, or struggling to find joy in life, we can help. With the right support, you can get the tools you need to cope with the unknowns and rediscover the joy of motherhood.
Meeting your baby is something you’ve looked forward to for monoths – but what if it doesn’t go as you expected? A traumatic birth experience can leave you feeling shocked, disillusioned, and full of fear, causing ripples through your transition into motherhood. Maybe your desires for the birth weren’t heard, your body impacted, or your life was at risk.
It’s important to acknowledge the impact of this trauma on your mental and emotional well-being. In therapy, we can work together to process your experience, find paths to healing, and restore your sense of control and trust in your body.

No one should have to go through a difficult time of their life in isolation. Whether you are struggling with grief, sadness, or worry, everyone deserves a safe place to be vulnerable and real.
At Infinity Mental Health, you are the most important person in the room.
When you work with your therapists we help you develop the tools, and strategies you need to decrease emotional distress, identify your triggers, and process your trauma. Through our experience, guidance and support we help process your feelings to become a more active, and happy participant in your own life.
As a therapist with over a decade of experience, it has been my mission to grow from a solo practitioner to group practice without compromising the vision of affordable, high-quality clinical care. I believe everyone should be able to receive the support they need during their most difficult days.
We are here for you.
Therapists are licensed to practice with history in the field, confidentiality and provide their undivided attention and support during sessions.
We provide a space where clients feel safe to express their true self. We believe you are the most important part of the therapy process.
Hard working people deserve to see specialists and have high quality care without negotiating their budget. Having an in-network option decreases barriers to starting therapy.
We want to get to know you! We connect you with the therapist that best matches your personality, values and style, and learn what your concerns are and how we can best support you.
Together, we develop a custom treatment plan to help you shift the thoughts and beliefs that are holding you back, develop greater emotional awareness and break free from past traumas.
We believe frequent sessions are crucial to effective change, and recommend weekly sessions to build the relationship and trust that will help you achieve your goals and experience change.
Talking through your feelings and experiences can help you better understand your emotions, break down overwhelming issues into manageable parts, and gain new perspectives.
It can also reduce feelings of isolation, reminding you that you’re not alone in your experiences. With a trained professional, your conversations can lead to strategies and solutions to improve your well-being.
Our compassionate team of therapists are trained to provide support, tools, and strategies to help you navigate the challenges that women face. Everyone’s experience is unique, and we’ll work together to develop a plan that’s tailored to your needs.
It is important to keep in mind that therapy isn’t about quick fixes, but about creating a supportive environment where you can grow, heal, and find sustainable strategies for managing your emotions and circumstances. We will walk with you for as long as you need.
Hormonal changes during and after pregnancy can significantly impact your emotions and overall mental health. Fluctuations in hormones like estrogen and progesterone can contribute to mood swings, anxiety, and depression.
Your body doesn’t feel the same, and the demands of caring for a newborn can be exhausting – even more than you think should be normal, which can further exacerbate emotional struggles. Over time, with grace and gentleness, your body will heal. In therapy, we can guide you to move, nourish, and take care of your body through the process.
Decisions about medication should always be made in consultation with your healthcare provider. Many types of medication used to treat mental health conditions are safe to use during pregnancy and breastfeeding, but there are some risks to consider.
Your healthcare provider will be able to weigh the benefits against any potential risks, taking into account your specific situation, the severity of your symptoms, and other important factors. Always ensure you communicate openly with your healthcare team to make the most informed decision.
Every person and situation is unique. While we can’t guarantee specific results in a certain time, we do know that your commitment to healing and consistency in showing up are steps in the right direction. As you move through your therapy journey, you may notice:
