Maternal Mental Health Counseling
in Logan, Utah
Maternal Mental Health Counseling
Bringing new life into the world is one of the most meaningful experiences a person can have—but it can also be one of the most emotionally complex. Many mothers and birthing individuals struggle silently with overwhelming feelings during pregnancy, postpartum, or throughout the transition into parenthood. At Peak Mental Health, our maternal mental health therapists provide compassionate, evidence-based support to help you feel grounded, confident, and emotionally well during this life-changing time.
​
Whether you are navigating pregnancy-related anxiety, birth trauma, postpartum depression, or the everyday pressures of raising a family, you deserve a space where your voice is heard, your feelings are validated, and your healing is prioritized.
Understanding Maternal Mental Health
Maternal mental health refers to the emotional and psychological well-being of individuals during pregnancy, postpartum, and early parenting. This period can come with unexpected emotional changes due to hormone shifts, sleep deprivation, lifestyle transitions, or past trauma resurfacing. Many mothers feel guilty for not feeling “happy enough,” but the reality is that perinatal struggles are common—and treatable.
​
Our approach draws from leading models in the country, including practices similar to the Hoag Maternal Mental Health program and other nationally recognized standards. At Peak Mental Health, we offer personalized, trauma-informed support designed to help mothers heal, reconnect, and thrive.
Common Challenges We Help With
You are not alone. Our maternal mental health therapists specialize in supporting individuals facing:
​
Prenatal Anxiety or Depression
Feelings of overwhelm during pregnancy are common. We help you build emotional coping skills so you can approach labor and parenthood with strength and clarity.
Postpartum Depression (PPD)
Persistent sadness, disconnection from your baby, or feelings of hopelessness can indicate PPD. With professional, compassionate support, healing is possible.
Postpartum Anxiety (PPA)
Excessive worry, racing thoughts, or fear of something bad happening can interfere with daily functioning. Counseling helps you regain control and peace.
Birth Trauma & PTSD
A difficult or traumatic birth experience can leave lasting emotional wounds. Our trauma-informed therapy offers a safe and structured path for healing.
Mom Guilt & Emotional Overload
The pressure to “do it all” can feel unbearable. Therapy provides tools for balance, boundaries, and healthier expectations.
Changes in Identity & Relationships
Major life transitions affect your sense of self, your partnership, and your support system. We help you navigate these changes with confidence.
Attachment Challenges
Bonding with your baby doesn’t always happen instantly. We help strengthen parent-child connection without shame or judgment.

Choosing the right therapist matters—especially during such an intimate and vulnerable season of life.
