Your Transition to Motherhood is Always Shifting and Changing.
As a pregnant woman, you are preparing for something new and wonderful and yet, it can come with a lot of uncertainty. You may be experiencing anxiety about the future, such as how you are going to balance your new role as a mother, changes in your relationship with your partner, or how you are going to manage childcare. Or, you're trying to work through the anger that you feel towards family members or friends that have very different ideas of how you should manage your pregnancy or prepare for the baby. It's a lot to deal with, and finding the right help for your needs can be hard.
Maybe you're a mother who has just recently given birth, the new life you have been carrying for so long is here. But your joy is mixed with being overwhelmed as you adjust to your new role.

At Online Therapy California, we provide perinatal and postpartum therapy online to help you through the transition to motherhood. Our online postpartum therapists understand that the transition to motherhood is a complex one and that it can be overwhelming. Your emotions are messengers giving you information about what is happening in your environment. Our online perinatal and postpartum therapists are here to help you listen and process these messages so that you can find the right solutions to help you navigate this transition and thrive.
We Will Help You Listen to Your Emotions and Decide What to Do
We have worked with many mothers who are struggling with the transition to motherhood, whether they are pregnant or have just had a baby. Before online postpartum therapy, they were feeling overwhelmed, and helpless, and had a hard time navigating their feelings. Perinatal mothers were struggling with the lack of control over their bodies, and postpartum mothers were not feeling present during activities like feeding, washing, and bathing.
After postpartum therapy online, they have gained the tools and insight needed to listen to their emotions and decide what to do. They were able to use the skills they learned, such as mindfulness, to be in the present to have a better connection with their baby. They were able to communicate confidently and effectively with family members, partners, or caregivers. Most of all, they were able to speak up when they needed help and develop a strong sense of self-care and resilience.
