Expert Perinatal & Postpartum Therapy: Virtual Mental Health Care in Texas
Those precious moments you imagined with your baby – the joyful bonding, peaceful nights, confident parenting – might feel overshadowed by overwhelming emotions or relentless worries. Whether you're experiencing perinatal anxiety, postpartum depression, or unexpected challenges in early motherhood, specialized mental health support is here for you. Through secure virtual therapy, we bring professional care directly to your Texas home, whether you're in Houston, Dallas, Austin, San Antonio, or anywhere else in the state.
Expert Mental Health Support That Works Around Your Schedule
Our HIPAA-compliant virtual therapy platform makes professional mental health care accessible when you need it most. Connect with your therapist during naptime, feeding sessions, or any quiet moment in your day. Through secure online sessions, you'll experience real changes: better sleep, reduced anxiety, deeper bonds with your baby, and renewed confidence in your parenting journey. We understand the delicate balance of new motherhood and ensure your mental health care fits seamlessly into your life.
More Than Just "Baby Blues"
The journey through pregnancy and postpartum can bring unexpected emotional challenges that go far beyond typical adjustment periods. You might find yourself consumed by intense anxiety about your baby's health or questioning your abilities as a parent. Many experience a disconnect from their pregnancy or struggle to bond with their baby in ways that differ from the instant connection they expected. For some, overwhelming sadness and mood swings persist well beyond the first weeks, while others grapple with intrusive thoughts that feel too scary or shameful to share. The weight of grief or trauma from difficult fertility journeys or pregnancy losses can also cast a shadow over this time.
These experiences aren't signs of weakness or failure – they're signs that you might need professional support to help you thrive during your maternal journey.
Transformative Support for Your Maternal Journey
Through our dedicated virtual therapy sessions, you'll experience comprehensive care. Many mothers notice restored sleep patterns and improved mood within weeks, leading to increased energy for daily life. As anxiety symptoms decrease, you'll find yourself developing a deeper emotional connection with your baby and greater confidence in your parenting decisions. Your relationships with family members naturally strengthen as you gain clarity and emotional balance. Most importantly, you'll develop practical coping strategies that work within your daily routine, creating lasting positive changes that benefit both you and your growing family.
Expert Mental Health Treatment That Fits Your Life
Led by Dr. Sarah Lorenz, PsyD, LPC-S, with 17 years of specialized experience, our therapy team brings together powerful, proven approaches for lasting healing. We blend Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to manage difficult thoughts and emotions impacting daily actions with problem solving mindfulness techniques for immediate stress relief. Our approach includes interpersonal therapy to strengthen your relationships and trauma-informed care for those processing pregnancy loss or birth trauma. Sessions fit seamlessly into your schedule—during naptime, feeding, or whenever works best for you.
“
In my seventeen years of supporting mothers through their perinatal and postpartum struggles, I've witnessed the ups and downs of the journey of motherhood. Sometimes first time moms are experiencing anxiety during pregnancy, or want to process birth loss or trauma. I also see women who had wonderful pregnancies, deliveries, and postpartum experiences with prior babies, but for some reason things are exceptionally different and difficult this time. The persistent feelings of sadness, disconnect, crying, irritability, and mood swings are all valid, understandable, and treatable. Through our virtual therapy platform, we've created a way for mothers to receive expert support without the added stress of leaving home – making professional care accessible exactly when you need it most. I've seen countless women transform their experience of their motherhood journey with the right support, and I'm here to help you do the same.
