Support throughout life, especially during life transitions, is critical yet often hard to find. Family and friends may be unavailable or simply not understand. Furthermore, guilt, shame and overwhelm can complicate navigating transitions, whether due to a significant loss, medical diagnosis, new beginnings or a host of other reasons.

I am a licensed mental health therapist who is well versed in providing support to diverse individuals working through life transitions including the immense pain and harsh reality that grief and loss can bring. I am also a trained perinatal mental health therapist with a passion for providing support during preconception, pregnancy, postpartum and beyond.

Frequently asked questions

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands maternal mental health

Headway helps you find expert-guided support for every stage of motherhood — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in San Francisco, CA

Finding postpartum therapists in San Francisco starts with looking for someone whose training fits what you want to focus on. Postpartum care can include support for postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, and relationship strain. Some therapists also have perinatal mental health training or a perinatal mental health certification, often listed as PMH-C. Reading specialties and bios can help you see whether a therapist has experience with new parents, prenatal therapy, postpartum couples therapy, or related concerns.

San Francisco has many therapy options across neighborhoods like the Mission District, Noe Valley, the Marina, and the Castro, which can make the search feel less clear at first. For new parents, practical fit matters too: appointment times, commute or transit access, virtual availability, and whether the therapist is accepting new patients. Virtual care can make it easier to meet from home when schedules shift, infant care changes, or physical recovery affects travel. Before booking, review each profile for details on communication style, session structure, and whether a free phone consultation is available.

Therapy in San Francisco can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you find therapists who work with postpartum concerns and are accepting new patients, and you can enter your insurance details to confirm what coverage is available for your specific plan in San Francisco. You can enter your insurance details, compare estimated out-of-pocket costs, read bios, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
