Postpartum & Perinatal Therapy
Pregnancy and early parenthood are often expected to be joyful, but for many individuals, this stage can also bring emotional challenges that feel overwhelming, confusing, or isolating. You may be adjusting to new responsibilities, experiencing changes in your identity, or feeling emotionally different than you expected. Some individuals experience anxiety, depression, or a sense of disconnection that can be difficult to explain. At Genesis Counseling, we provide postpartum and perinatal therapy that helps you navigate these changes with support, understanding, and practical tools. We offer therapy in Boca Raton, Coral Springs, Delray Beach, Pompano Beach, and Wellington, as well as virtual therapy throughout Florida.
