Empowering Women Through Pregnancy, Postpartum, and Motherhood

Compassionate Perinatal Mental Health Support in Lenexa, KS

Perinatal Mental Health

Pregnancy and new motherhood can bring powerful emotional changes — but when feelings of sadness, anxiety, or overwhelm become intense, persistent, or interfere with daily life, it's time to seek support.


You are not failing. You are not alone. And you deserve help that honors what you're experiencing.

Perinatal mood and anxiety disorders (PMADs) — including depression, anxiety, OCD, PTSD, and postpartum psychosis — affect up to 1 in 5 women. They are among the most common complications of pregnancy and childbirth.

Early support can make all the difference. Whether you are pregnant, newly postpartum, or years into motherhood, it's never too late to seek care for your emotional well-being.

Do these questions sound familiar?

  • Why am I feeling so anxious about giving birth — is this normal?

  • What if I'm not strong enough to handle pregnancy and motherhood?

  • Will I ever feel like myself again?

  • Why can’t I stop worrying about my baby, even when everything seems fine?

  • How do I ask for help when I feel like I should be handling this on my own?

  • Am I a good enough mother?

  • Will I ever find a version of me that isn’t just 'mom'?

Motherhood is a journey full of emotions — but sometimes, the inner struggles feel too heavy to carry alone.

These worries are real. Your feelings are valid. And support is available.
You deserve compassionate care for your mind and heart — at every stage of your journey.
