Starting Postpartum depression counseling in Mt Pleasant

What is postpartum depression counseling?

Postpartum depression counseling is a type of psychotherapy that focuses on treating individuals who have given birth and are experiencing clinically significant symptoms of depression in the months after giving birth. This condition is often a result of the drastic hormone and life changes that occur after childbirth.

How does postpartum depression counseling work?

To treat postpartum depression, Thriveworks Mt Pleasant therapists will use common approaches for depression treatment like cognitive behavioral therapy, while keeping in mind the hormonal changes and added stress that come with giving birth and taking care of a child. The approaches used are often tailored to the client in order to make treatment as effective as possible. Psychotherapy may also take place alongside the use of antidepressants or other medications.

Is postpartum depression counseling conducted in person or online?

Thriveworks postpartum depression counseling in Mt Pleasant, SC is conducted both in person and virtually via online counseling. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.

How long does postpartum depression counseling last?

Postpartum depression counseling can last for a few weeks, months, or longer, depending on the severity of one’s depression as well as their needs and preferences.

What Is Postpartum Sadness or “Baby Blues”?

Up to 80% of moms experience “baby blues” within the first few days of birth. It can last for minutes or hours per day over many weeks or months. Symptoms may include:

  • Unprovoked sadness, weeping or crying 
  • Irritability, impatience
  • Restlessness, fatigue, insomnia
  • Poor concentration
  • Diminished appetite

It is not fully understood why these symptoms occur for many women. The abrupt shift in daily routine, disrupted sleep patterns, and exhaustion are all theorized to cause hormonal changes affecting mood and coping skills. 

Do I Have Postpartum Depression? 

Some moms experience intense symptoms and may be suffering from postpartum anxiety and depression without knowing it. Postpartum can affect anyone. It has nothing to do with what you have done or what you may not have done, and there is no way to prevent it. Postpartum anxiety and depression affect an estimated 1 in 8 women. Symptoms can include:

  • Sadness, mood swings, crying uncontrollably
  • Disinterest in activities and withdrawal
  • Lack of concentration, loss of energy, excessive fatigue

  • Inability to bond with your baby

  • Hallucinations

I am very pleased with Susan Jillson as my provider. The referral to her was a great match for my needs. She quickly grasped my issues, cared enough to ask me what I wanted from her, shared her ideas about a starting approach to help that I'm excited to try, and already gave me helpful information in the first two sessions with her. She is professional, knowledgeable, relatable, and funny at times. She was prompt and the hour flew by. I like that she thinks outside the box and is open to referring me to someone else for matters beyond her expertise, while still taking an interest in those specialties. Lastly, I feel comfortable and safe with her.
