Pregnancy and the postpartum period are often portrayed as purely joyful times — full of excitement, love, and new beginnings. But for many people, the perinatal period (which includes pregnancy and the first year after birth) can also bring emotional ups and downs, unexpected challenges, and overwhelming changes.
Perinatal mental health refers to the emotional well-being of parents during this time. It includes not just depression and anxiety but also the complex mix of thoughts, feelings, and experiences that accompany the transition to parenthood.
Perinatal mental health encompasses a range of emotional experiences that can occur during pregnancy and after birth. While some changes are part of the normal adjustment to parenthood, others can indicate a perinatal mood or anxiety disorder (PMAD). These conditions are common, temporary, and treatable — with the right support.
Some of the most common perinatal mental health concerns include:
Postpartum depression (PPD) – persistent sadness, loss of interest, or disconnection after birth.
Perinatal anxiety – excessive worry, racing thoughts, or physical symptoms such as restlessness and tension.
Postpartum OCD – intrusive, unwanted thoughts or repetitive behaviors often tied to fears about the baby’s safety.
Birth trauma or PTSD – emotional distress following a difficult or traumatic pregnancy or delivery experience.
Perinatal loss or grief – the emotional impact of miscarriage, stillbirth, or infant loss.
When parents struggle emotionally during the perinatal period, it can affect every aspect of life — relationships, self-esteem, physical health, and the ability to bond with a baby. Recognizing and addressing these challenges early helps promote healing, stability, and stronger family connections.
Supporting perinatal mental health benefits everyone — not just the birthing parent, but also partners, children, and entire families.
Perinatal mood and anxiety disorders are not a sign of weakness or failure — they’re a sign that your mind and body need care and attention. With professional support, recovery is absolutely possible.
Therapy, peer support, self-care strategies, and, when necessary, medical treatment can make a profound difference. Talking to a professional trained in perinatal mental health — such as a Certified Perinatal Mental Health Professional (PMH-C) — can help you navigate this period with compassion, understanding, and evidence-based care.
Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) affects more than just concentration—it influences emotions, productivity, and daily life.

But with the right tools and strategies, you can harness your strengths, improve focus, and build confidence in your personal and professional life.
ADHD isn’t just about being distracted—it’s a neurodevelopmental condition that affects the way you process information and manage responsibilities. It can impact work, relationships, and self-esteem. Symptoms can vary but often include:
ADHD can present differently in adults than in children, often showing up as chronic lateness, difficulty maintaining routines, or feeling mentally scattered.

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is more than just being overly organized or particular—it’s a mental health condition that causes distressing obsessions (intrusive thoughts) and compulsions (repetitive behaviors). These patterns can interfere with daily life, relationships, and overall well-being. If you feel trapped in a cycle of anxiety and compulsions, effective therapy can help you break free and regain control.

Perfectionism isn’t just about wanting to do well—it’s a relentless drive for flawlessness, often accompanied by self-criticism, fear of failure, and anxiety. While high standards can be beneficial, perfectionism can become overwhelming, leading to stress, procrastination, and burnout.

If you’re constantly drained, struggling to focus, or feeling detached from work and personal life, therapy can help you reset, regain energy, and build resilience.
Stress is a normal response to life’s demands, but when it becomes excessive, it can take a serious toll. Signs of burnout and chronic stress include:
