Therapy for Pregnancy and Postpartum in Miami, FL
You don't have to navigate this journey alone.
Everyone says this should be the happiest time of your life, but it doesn't feel that way.
Maybe you're struggling with worries that won't quiet, sadness that lingers, or feeling disconnected when you expected to feel joy. This isn't what you imagined motherhood would be like.
You might be experiencing…
Constant worry about your baby or pregnancy
Intrusive thoughts that scare you
Sadness or numbness when you expected to feel happy
Difficulty bonding with your baby
Guilt about not enjoying motherhood the way you "should"
Overwhelm with the changes in your body, identity, and life
Fear of being judged or misunderstood
You are not alone, and these feelings do not make you a bad parent.

How I can support you.
Hi, I’m Alexis Landa.
As a Trained Perinatal Mental Health Therapist, I provide specialized support for mothers during pregnancy and the postpartum period. I understand the unique challenges this season brings, and I'm here to help you navigate them with compassion and evidence-based care.
What I Can Help With
-
Perinatal Anxiety & Depression
Whether you're experiencing postpartum depression, prenatal anxiety, or other mood concerns during this transition, I'll help you understand what you're going through and develop strategies to feel more grounded and present.
-
Intrusive Thoughts & Postpartum OCD
Scary, unwanted thoughts about your baby are more common than you think. I provide a safe, judgment-free space to talk about these thoughts and learn skills to manage them so they no longer control your days.
-
Birth Trauma & Processing
If your birth experience was traumatic or just different from what you hoped or planned for, it’s normal to have lots of complex feelings (even years later). We can work through those feelings together and help you heal from the experience.
-
Adjustment to Motherhood
The transition to parenthood brings enormous changes to your identity, relationships, and daily life. I'll support you as you navigate this adjustment and help you feel more confident in your new role.
My Approach
In our work together, you can be honest about your experience–even the parts that feel hard to say out loud.
I use research-supported approaches tailored to perinatal mental health, helping you develop practical skills to manage anxiety, process difficult emotions, and strengthen your connection with yourself and your baby.
You'll learn to:
Quiet the anxious thoughts and worries
Process the emotions you're experiencing without judgment
Build confidence in yourself as a mother
Reconnect with the parts of yourself that feel lost
Set boundaries and ask for support
Trust your instincts as a parent
