Therapy for New Moms in Tampa
As a collective of licensed psychologists, therapists, and parents ourselves, we bring diverse training to assist you through every stage of parenthood. From navigating fertility and pregnancy to adoption, birth, the postpartum years and beyond, we're here to support you.
Perinatal Therapy
We offer specialized individual therapy for moms navigating the early stages of parenting including the pre-pregnancy, pregnancy, and postpartum periods. We aim to provide a safe space to explore your emotions, concerns, and questions related to this transformative journey. Through compassionate and evidence-based therapy, our goal is to empower you with tools and strategies to combat feelings of anxiety, depression, anger, overwhelm, or low self-esteem– and to help you transform your experience of motherhood into one in which you feel confident, competent, connected, and fulfilled.
Postpartum Mood and Anxiety Disorders
Our psychologists have specialized training and experience in supporting moms experiencing postpartum mood and anxiety disorders (PMADS) such as postpartum depression and postpartum anxiety. We understand that these conditions can significantly impact your quality of life and joy of motherhood. We are dedicated to creating a safe space where moms can share their experiences, process their emotions, and develop effective coping strategies. You don’t have to figure it out on your own. We’re here to help with postpartum depression therapy and postpartum anxiety therapy in Tampa.
Obsessive Thoughts
Because intrusive thoughts of harming the baby are so common—it is estimated that 70 percent of new mothers experience them—not only will therapy help normalize these thoughts, but Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) for postpartum anxiety and OCD in Tampa will help treat them. Postpartum OCD therapy in Tampa gives you tools to cope with intrusive thoughts. Our clinicians use evidence-based treatments for postpartum anxiety disorder and OCD including Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). By developing self-acceptance and self-awareness, we will unpack your worries and fears underlying your postpartum experience so they no longer interfere with your day to day life.
What to Expect
We typically start with an initial intake assessment to hear more about your concerns and goals for working together. For most moms, we meet weekly or as needed for four to six months. We discontinue treatment when you feel like your goals have been met. We’re always here if you run into new challenges or hurdles down the road.
Cost Per Session
Cost per session varies depending on the clinician’s license level. The cost for all one-time initial intake sessions is $300. This session is 45-60 minutes in length and also requires your provider to spend time outside of session reviewing records and background information, and developing a treatment plan. Cost of recurring sessions following this initial intake appointment ranges from $125 to $225 per session. For more information on our fee schedule, click here.
Details About Insurance
We are a private pay practice and do not directly bill insurance for treatment. Some benefits of paying privately include more privacy and more control in our work together. However, we’ve found that many insurance companies will cover our services as out-of-network providers. If you have a PPO, we can provide a “super bill” that you can submit to your insurance company for possible reimbursement. A super bill is a detailed record of payment with special codes for what kind of service was provided along with our license number. Our Billing Specialist can call your insurance to find out what reimbursement will look like for you, if desired. If you’re hoping to find an in-network provider, Good Therapy or Psychology Today are helpful directories. Find out more information about using your insurance to cover the cost of therapy.
