  What is Perinatal Mental Health? 

Perinatal mental health refers to a mother’s emotional well-being during pregnancy and in the year after giving birth. Challenges can show up in many ways, including:

• Postpartum depression - sadness, hopelessness, or difficulty bonding with your baby
• Postpartum anxiety - racing thoughts, panic attacks, or constant worry
• Intrusive thoughts - scary or unwanted images you can’t control
• Postpartum rage - irritability and anger that feels out of character
• Birth trauma - lingering distress from a difficult delivery or medical experience
• Identity shifts - struggling to balance motherhood with your sense of self

Perinatal challenges are common and treatable with the right care. Postpartum counseling can provide a safe space to process and heal.

 Why Moms Seek Perinatal Therapy 

Many moms reach out for support because they feel:

• Overwhelmed by the transition into motherhood
• Guilty for not “enjoying every moment”
• Stuck between caring for others and losing themselves
• Disconnected from their partner or community
• Exhausted by trying to do it all perfectly

If you’ve ever felt like you’re “not enough,” perinatal therapy can help you find relief and restore balance.

 Our Specialized Approach

At Rooted Healing, we bring both professional expertise and personal understanding to supporting mothers.

• Certified Perinatal Mental Health (PMH-C) - Briana Sampson is trained specifically in perinatal mood and anxiety disorders.
• Trauma-informed care - we integrate EMDR for moms processing birth trauma or past trauma.
• Holistic support - blending CBT, mindfulness, and attachment-based approaches.
• Relationship focus - when helpful, we include couples work to support partners adjusting to parenthood.

Our approach is gentle, empowering, and tailored to meet you exactly where you are.

 What to Expect in Sessions    

In therapy, you’ll find a safe, non-judgmental space where your feelings are valid and your story matters. Together, we’ll:

• Explore your experiences of pregnancy, birth, or postpartum honestly
• Learn tools to manage anxiety, depression, or intrusive thoughts
• Build routines that prioritize rest and self-care

Postpartum therapy is not about perfection - it’s about helping you feel stronger, calmer, and more supported.
