Question 1

How soon after birth can I start therapy?

Accepted Answer

Those first weeks can blur together, and it can be hard to know when to reach out. You can start whenever you are ready, and a therapist can talk with you about scheduling and online sessions around a newborn. On Alma, filter therapists in Fontana who support Postpartum mental health by format and availability.

Question 2

Can partners get Postpartum therapy too?

Accepted Answer

Question 3

Are there therapists with evening or flexible hours for new parents?

Question 4

Do I need medication for Postpartum Depression, or just therapy?

Accepted Answer

On Alma, filter clinicians in Fontana who offer medication management or therapists who support Postpartum mental health.

Is it worth finding a therapist before my due date?
