How Postpartum Therapy Can Help You
With a postpartum therapist in Park Ridge, you can get the support you need to mentally recover from your birthing experience and get back to feeling wholesome and well.
Healing Strategies
As your emotions stabilize and return to their former baseline, so can your mind. We have a shelter for you when parent guilt arises.
Addressing Trauma
Giving birth can be a difficult experience even without complications. We strive to support you as you work toward mental clarity and joy.
Building Positive Connections
Bonding with your baby can be a struggle in the postpartum stage, but we can work together to ease you into your new role as a mother.
Many mothers experience the “Baby Blues” after giving birth, where they may feel sad or disconnected from their infant. These symptoms should subside after two weeks if they are the Baby Blues. However, if you are consistently feeling emotions such as hopelessness, detachment from your child, or intense irritation after two weeks postpartum, you may have postpartum depression.
Regardless of your symptoms, we invite you to speak with an experienced postpartum therapist in Park Ridge so that you can begin your healing journey and start connecting with your child.
At Crescent Moon Therapy, your telehealth sessions will provide you with a nurturing shelter for your emotions. We can talk through your concerns, identify the root causes of your postpartum depression or anxiety, and work to create a treatment plan. Once we have set goals for you to achieve between sessions, you can feel more confident with the tools you have gained during your appointments.
Helping you understand that you are not alone is our top priority. Postpartum anxiety and depression are a common struggle for millions of women, and all of them (you included) deserve to feel safe, supported, and worthy of happiness.
Giving birth is a challenging experience, and connecting with your emotions is the best way to address that challenge. The next step is to channel those emotions towards empowering yourself and building self-confidence. We will provide you with the necessary support for your mental well-being during this difficult period.
We accept multiple insurance plans! If you’re not part of any of our insurance networks and would like to pay out of pocket, we can offer you a monthly superbill that outlines the services you received, which could be eligible for reimbursement. Before starting services, make sure to contact your insurance provider to inquire about your coverage for behavioral health. You may be responsible for paying the full contracted rate.

What Therapy Looks Like
Our goal at Crescent Moon is supporting mothers during the perinatal period of their lives. When you visit us for therapy, we will focus on issues like the vulnerability you may be feeling as a new mother. We can also discuss the complexities of depression in this perinatal stage that are often glossed over. Discussing your problems with your postpartum therapist in Park Ridge is the first step toward creating mental health goals you can achieve. Each session is about making the next period between visits easier for you to manage.
For Fathers Seeking Guidance
We highly value your dedication to your family as a father figure and want to support you in continuing to develop your role as a parent. That is why we invite fathers to engage in conversations about how they can support their partners during the postpartum period. In addition, we know that self-care is essential for every father when they are helping their partners through this emotionally demanding stage. Whether you need help in building a relationship with your child or rebuilding connections with your partner, we are here to stand by your side, providing support.
