Perinatal Therapy in NYC & Westchester

Pregnancy is a time of profound change — physically, emotionally, and relationally. While it can bring excitement, it can also stir up anxiety, mood changes, and past traumas. At Dr. Inzinna Psychological Services, we provide perinatal therapy to support individuals and families through pregnancy, birth, and the transition into parenthood.

The perinatal period covers pregnancy through the first year postpartum. During this time, many people experience emotional challenges such as:

• Anxiety and excessive worry during pregnancy
• Depression or mood changes before or after birth
• Birth trauma or fear of delivery
• Pregnancy loss, infertility, or complicated pregnancies
• Relationship strain and adjustment to parenthood
   

These struggles are common and treatable — and seeking help is a sign of strength.

Perinatal therapy provides a safe space to:

• Reduce stress, worry, and intrusive thoughts
• Process loss, trauma, or difficult pregnancy experiences
• Build coping strategies for mood and anxiety
• Strengthen relationships with partners and support networks
• Prepare emotionally for birth and the postpartum transition
   

Our clinicians combine psychodynamic therapy with skills-based and trauma-informed approaches. This allows us to not only treat symptoms, but also address the deeper emotional shifts that come with pregnancy and parenthood.

Therapy is:

• Compassionate — a supportive, non-judgmental space
• Collaborative — tailored to your needs and goals
• Flexible — available in person or via telehealth
• Evidence-based — grounded in best practices for perinatal mental health
