Postpartum Counseling

Bonding & Processing Your Birth

Support for attachment, feeding challenges, and healing from a hard or traumatic birth.

Bonding doesn't always happen instantly — and that doesn't mean anything is wrong with you or your baby. Sleep deprivation, medical complications, NICU stays, and traumatic birth experiences can all get in the way of the connection you expected to feel.

Together we'll gently unpack your birth story, address any trauma symptoms (flashbacks, avoidance, hypervigilance), and support the day-to-day work of building a secure, responsive relationship with your baby.

Things we can work through

  • Difficult, unexpected, or traumatic birth experiences.
  • NICU stays, feeding struggles, or medical scares.
  • Guilt or shame about how feeding, sleep, or bonding is going.
  • Loss — miscarriage, stillbirth, or infant loss.
  • Fear about a next pregnancy or postpartum period.
