Postpartum depression can affect anyone after giving birth, including first-time parents and those with prior experience. It often presents as persistent sadness, feelings of worthlessness, disinterest in once-enjoyed activities, and difficulties bonding with a baby. Some people experience extreme fatigue, brain fog, or intrusive thoughts. It’s not a sign of weakness or failure. It’s a medical condition, and it deserves compassionate, expert care.

Westside Behavioral Care offers specialized therapy for postpartum depression that’s tailored to each client’s unique experience. Our therapists may use cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help shift negative thinking patterns, interpersonal therapy (IPT) to navigate changes in relationships, and mindfulness techniques to manage anxiety. We also provide trauma-informed care (including EMDR when relevant), as well as parenting support to help clients regain confidence in their new roles. You’ll work collaboratively with your therapist to build coping skills, reduce distress, and reconnect with yourself and your child.

We offer in-person therapy at offices throughout the Greater Denver Area, including Lakewood, Englewood, Westminster, Arvada, and Boulder, as well as secure online sessions across Colorado. All Westside Behavioral Care providers are in-network with Kaiser Permanente, and many are also credentialed with other major insurance plans. Getting help should feel accessible, and we’re here to support you every step of the way.
