Postpartum Anxiety Treatment in New York

The postpartum period can bring intense emotional shifts, and for many women, anxiety becomes one of the most overwhelming and unexpected challenges. If you’re experiencing constant worry, intrusive thoughts, restlessness, or a sense of being "on edge," you are not alone, postpartum anxiety is common, real, and treatable.

As a psychiatric nurse practitioner specializing in women’s mental health, I offer compassionate, evidence-based treatment for postpartum anxiety to women across New York. My approach centers on gentleness, safety, and individualized support during one of life’s most vulnerable transitions.

Common symptoms of postpartum anxiety may include:

• Persistent worry that feels difficult to control

• Intrusive or unwanted thoughts

• Racing thoughts or inability to relax

• Physical tension or restlessness

• Fear that something bad will happen

• Difficulty sleeping even when the baby sleeps

• Irritability or emotional overwhelm

These symptoms do not mean you’re failing. They are signs that you need support, not that anything is wrong with you as a mother.

Together, we explore your symptoms, identify what you’ve been carrying, and create a treatment plan that fits your needs. Medication management is available when appropriate, and every decision is made collaboratively with respect for your values and comfort.

You deserve to feel steadier, calmer, and supported as you adjust to life with your baby.
