Meet Mikayla Minehart, LPC, PMH-C - Specializing in Postpartum Depression
Hi, I’m Mikayla Minehart, a therapist specializing in postpartum depression and the emotional challenges that many new mothers face. My passion for this work stems from my deep understanding of the profound emotional and physical transitions new moms go through. I’ve seen firsthand how these challenges affect a mother’s mental health and her relationship with her baby.
I am grounded in attachment theory, which helps us understand how the early emotional bonds between mother and child shape mental health. I work with mothers to help them heal, build stronger connections with their babies, and create healthier relationships.
It’s also important to me that we break the stigma surrounding seeking help. No mother should ever feel ashamed or isolated when struggling. Caring for your mental health is just as vital as caring for your baby’s well-being. I’m here to provide compassionate and understanding support throughout your journey.
