Postpartum

Kristina [KP] Parks (she/he/fae)

Professional Counselor Associate

MA, BS

My 4 years of Midwifery college training and 15+ years of practice as a birth worker allowed me the privilege to work with countless birthing families and clients navigating the dramatic changes the postpartum period can bring. Postpartum depression and postpartum emotional disorders are largely missed and untended. I have extensive training in identifying and treating postpartum emotional disorders, while also holding my professional background of contextualizing it through a holistic lens.

I have additional clinical training in perinatal mental health.

I have extra education from the perinatal prescribing institute where we spent more time learning in depth about caring for women as they move through hormonal transitions. I comfortably weave this knowledge into the care of your mental health as you navigate through life's hormonal changes.

We'll work together to help you feel like your best self as you navigate through these periods of intense transition.

There are few more critically life-changing and difficult times in a person's life than the postpartum year+. Many women feel like their emotions at this time are "wrong" which leads to waiting to reach out for support. Often relationships with onself and others are tested.

I have training from WellMama, Baby Blues Connection, and Postpartum Support International.

The post-partum period challenges people’s views of themselves, their careers, their relationships, and who they want to be as a parent. And all on very little sleep. I have received extensive training in pregnancy and postpartum mental health and worked in a hospital birthing center and NICU.

For three years I provided behavioral health consultation for an OBGYN clinic, focusing specifically on serving pregnant patients. I received specialized training from the Seleni Institute to treat perinatal mental health concerns, spanning all of pregnancy and extending well into postpartum. I feel that the experiences and emotional struggles of pregnant people are some of the most unseen, unheard, and undertreated issues of our time, and I strive to undo the harm that invisibility causes.

Dr. Sarah Kendrick (she/her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

PMH-C, CCTS, LPC, LMHC

The postpartum period brings pressure to be better than however & whoever we are in the moment. People plan for, mourn, & wearily raise babies fighting the inherent needs, aches, & discomfort of being human. I help folx find their wise & adaptive parts the world has deemed unruly, so they can feel the gorgeous-mess of it all & know that vitality is inherent too. The grasp of depression, anxiety, grief, or fear is not loosened by battle, but by the addition of safety, relationship, & being seen.
