Perinatal and Pregnancy Therapy in Denver, CO

When you're growing life inside you, the world expects you to glow. But inside? You might feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or silently unraveling. The truth is, pregnancy and the perinatal period can stir up deep emotional shifts, past wounds, and fears that no one warns you about.

At Sitting in Sisterhood, I offer therapy for postpartum in Denver to support women through the full arc of this transformation — emotionally, spiritually, and somatically. This isn’t about pushing through. It’s about honoring who you are becoming.

Perinatal therapy is a space for women navigating the emotional, mental, and identity shifts that come with pregnancy, fertility journeys, postpartum, or even deciding not to have children. It supports you from conception through the first year postpartum — a time when your body and brain are rewiring, your nervous system is on high alert, and your sense of self is evolving.

This work is not just about treating symptoms — it’s about holding space for your whole experience. I help you explore what’s surfacing beneath the surface: grief, rage, fear, disconnection, and the longing to feel like yourself again (or meet the new version of you for the first time).

• Persistent anxiety, panic, or racing thoughts during or after pregnancy
• Depression, mood swings, or unexplained sadness
• Feelings of disconnection from your body or baby
• Overwhelm, overstimulation, or emotional numbness
• Difficulty sleeping or eating despite exhaustion or hunger
• Intrusive or scary thoughts that you feel ashamed to share
• Identity confusion or loss of your “old self”

These symptoms are more common than you think—and they’re not a reflection of your strength or your love. They’re signals that support is needed.

• Do I feel like I’m “supposed” to be okay, but I’m struggling inside?
• Am I carrying anxiety, fear, or grief related to my body, pregnancy, or birth?
• Do I feel like I’ve lost parts of myself in this transition?
• Have I experienced loss, medical trauma, or a hard fertility journey?
• Do I feel emotionally flooded, even by small things?

If you answered yes to any of these, perinatal therapy may offer the relief and reflection you’ve been craving.

I don’t believe in quick fixes or one-size-fits-all care. My perinatal therapy approach is holistic, grounded in somatic awareness, emotional regulation, and soul-centered support.

I use:

• Nervous system tools to reduce overwhelm and anxiety
• Embodiment practices to reconnect you with your body and intuition
• Space to process birth stories, grief, loss, or fear
• Identity work to help you re-meet yourself in this new season

Whether you're pregnant, postpartum, or healing from a fertility experience — I’ll move at your pace, honoring what your body and spirit need most.

• Coping with anxiety, fear, or intrusive thoughts during or after pregnancy
• Releasing guilt, shame, or pressure around “not doing it right”
• Processing medical trauma, birth trauma, or loss
• Exploring identity, boundaries, and your evolving relationships
• Supporting your nervous system when the world feels too loud
• Navigating ambivalence, rage, or sadness you didn’t expect

• Use grounding exercises to regulate your body: feet on the floor, hand on heart, slow breaths
• Give yourself permission to rest — not just physically, but emotionally
• Unfollow accounts that make you feel like you’re falling behind
• Keep a “truths I want to remember” list for hard days
• Connect with other women who get it — you’re not alone
