Postpartum Couples Therapy

The postpartum period brings joy, but it can also present unexpected challenges for couples. Sleep deprivation, changing responsibilities, and shifting dynamics can put significant strain on even the strongest relationships. At Verve Psychotherapy, we offer compassionate postpartum couples therapy to help you and your partner navigate this transformative time, strengthen your bond, and support your mental health.

​

Why Postpartum Couples Therapy?

​

Many couples face relationship difficulties after the birth of a child. The demands of caring for a newborn can create emotional and communication barriers, leading to feelings of disconnection or resentment. Common issues include:

​​

• Communication Breakdowns: Misunderstandings and arguments about parenting roles and responsibilities.

• Emotional Disconnect: Struggles to maintain intimacy and emotional connection.

• Parental Identity Shifts: Navigating changes in personal identity and roles within the relationship.

• Mental Health Challenges: Postpartum mood and anxiety disorders (PMADs) impacting one or both partners.

• Parenting Stress: Disagreements over parenting approaches or household responsibilities.
