I completed the labor and postpartum doula training at Birthingway College of Midwifery and bring this knowledge to my work. I understand that pregnancy and postpartum is a huge time of transition.

The postpartum period is one of the most sensitive periods in a family's life. Major shifts in life experience mingle with the joy of bringing new life into the world and are unsettling for mothers, fathers, and siblings. I have trained to assist you with both the practical and the emotional and can help you smooth out this very important period of 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. We are meant to have a caring, nurturing village and you are not alone! Please reach out, I will squeeze you in. I have training from WellMama, Baby Blues Connection, and Postpartum Support International.

I enjoy working with new parents through pregnancy, postpartum and beyond. While a new baby is something to be celebrated, the adjustment to parenthood, changes in family dynamics, social isolation and hormonal factors can be overwhelming. I work to help normalize your experience and develop strategies to receive the care you deserve.

My approach to therapy with expecting and new moms comes from a place of compassion and understanding: knowing that you don’t have to lose yourself when you become a mother; you can move through motherhood with confidence meeting the challenges as they come.

Sara Carmona (She/Her)

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

LCSW, PMH-C

Nearly 1 in 6 women and 1 in 10 men experience a perinatal mood or anxiety disorder. The symptoms arrive at a time when the demands and the stakes are high; the last place a postpartum parent wants to be is in a therapist's office. As a parent of 3, I understand. We will balance the exploration of feelings with concrete steps to help you feel better and come to enjoy parenthood.

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.

Life after baby can be an unexpected experience filled with feelings and challenges you may not have anticipated. For some mothers, being surrounded by others who may not understand their struggle, can further lead them to feel isolated and increase feelings of despair. I am here to let you know that you are not alone, and I am here to help. Reach out today at www.mindbodymamapdx.com (*I am a Certified Perinatal Mental Health Provider.)

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.

Navigating emotional, physical and social changes after having a baby can be incredibly isolating and challenging. I work with new parents to help them adjust, modify expectations, and find support after this big change in life. As a parent myself I also have empathy and knowledge about new parenthood.
