Therapy for Pregnancy & Postpartum
in New Orleans + virtual across LA
Bethany LeBlanc, LCSW, PMH-C
Perinatal mental health support for pregnancy, postpartum, and the transition into parenthood.
Welcoming a new baby is supposed to be a time of excitement… right? For many folks, it doesn’t feel that way- and that experience can be so isolating. Pregnancy and postpartum often come with anxiety, worries, overwhelm, major identity shifts, and wondering why this season feels so much harder than you expected. And that doesn’t make you a bad parent- it just means you need support. (Honestly, everyone does.)
You might be here because…
You feel disconnected from your body during pregnancy or postpartum
You’re overwhelmed by the transition into parenthood
You’re wondering how other parents make it look so easy
You’re sleep deprived and questioning everything
You don’t feel like yourself after having a baby
You’re struggling with postpartum depression or anxiety
You’re processing a difficult birth experience
You want support in creating a more intentional, values-aligned parenting journey
Therapy can help support you with:
Building self-trust and reconnecting with your body
Creating an empowering birth + postpartum plan
Learning how to navigate medical systems + advocate for yourself
Processing your birth story
Managing parenting stress and overwhelm
Treatment for perinatal mood and anxiety disorders (PMADs)
Finding community (because being with folks in the same boat can help!)
My approach:
I believe parenthood, sexual + reproductive wellness, and mental health doesn’t exist in a vacuum. Your unique reproductive story is shaped by your relationships, culture, identity, access to care, and the systems around you.
Together, we’ll explore your experiences with curiosity and compassion- building practical tools, deeper self-understanding, and a stronger connection to yourself.
