Perinatal mental health therapy in Denver

Find support and healing that prioritizes you.

Understanding perinatal mental health

Perinatal mental health refers to the emotional well-being of pregnant women and new mothers. Conditions like postpartum depression and anxiety can significantly impact a woman’s life and her ability to bond with her baby. These challenges are often overlooked or stigmatized, but it’s essential to remember that you’re not alone, and therapy can help.

At My Denver Therapy, we have multiple therapists who specialize in working with women and providing therapy to perinatal women and postpartum mothers experiencing mental health issues. Our therapists understand the changes that you, your life, and your family are all experiencing during this period of life, and we can help you heal and rediscover yourself during one of the most impactful periods of your life.

Why perinatal mental health matters

Perinatal mental health is crucial for the well-being of both the mother and the child. Untreated conditions can lead to:

  • Relationship difficulties: Strained relationships with partners, family, and friends.
  • Parenting challenges: Difficulty bonding with and caring for your baby.
  • Increased risk of substance abuse: As a way to cope with emotional distress.
  • Increased risk of suicide: Postpartum depression can be a serious condition with potentially fatal consequences.

Healing may not be so much about getting better, as about letting go of everything that isn’t you – all of the expectations, all of the beliefs – and becoming who you are.

My Denver Therapy has become one of the largest therapy private practices in Colorado with many of the best mental health therapists in the Denver Metro area. 

As a therapist-owned practice with over 100 years of combined experience, we care about seeing you heal, grow, and thrive. We’re one of the only therapy practices in Colorado with licensed professional counselors, marriage and family therapists, addiction counselors, social workers, and psychiatric nurse practitioners who actively see new clients in person and online. 

Whether you’re an adult, teen, young adult, couple, or family, our inclusive therapist team is built to specialize in clients of all ages, faiths, backgrounds, and life experiences. 

Because our client-centered approach that meets you where you are, we’ve helped thousands of people in Colorado by providing in-person therapy at our conveniently located Denver Metro area counseling offices in Denver, Greenwood Village, and Lone Tree, plus online therapy for clients throughout Colorado. Our therapists also provide consultation for other therapists and private practices throughout the Denver Metro area.

To support you and your mental health journey, our therapists are trained in some of the most innovative, effective, and in-demand forms of therapy available today, including EMDR, Ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, CBT, DBT, and IFS. 

We know that you want to find the best therapist in Denver for you, so our team includes therapists of different ages with a wide range of backgrounds, specialities, and experiences to help you find the right match for your goals, location, budget, and schedule.

We’re out of network for insurance, Tricare, and are unable to take Medicaid or Medicare, but most of our therapists’ rates are lower than the local and national averages for therapy. Also, we don’t charge separate intake or administration fees or charge more for specialized therapy methods like EMDR.

All of our therapists take a client-focused approach to counseling and approach each session with a commitment to your progress and growth. When you’re ready to meet your therapist, we’re here to help.
