A car accident can be over in seconds, but your nervous system may not get the β€œit’s over now” memo right away.

After a single event trauma, you might notice yourself avoiding certain roads, feeling tense behind the wheel, replaying the moment or feeling like driving is no longer safe. These responses can feel confusing, but they are common post-traumatic stress symptoms.

In this video, Erin Montgomery explains how EMDR therapy may support people after single event traumas by helping the brain and body process what happened in a safer, more supported way.

You can love your baby deeply and still feel like you need support.
Those two things can exist at the same time.

Perinatal mental health is not about being a β€œgood” or β€œbad” parent. It is about having care through one of the biggest emotional, physical, and identity shifts a person can go through.
No judgement. No gold stars for struggling quietly.

Therapy feels different when you are not bracing yourself through the whole session.
A therapy space should feel warm, steady, and human. Somewhere you can show up as you are, without needing to explain everything perfectly.

At Become Therapy, our therapists bring a trauma-informed approach that meets you where you are.
Tiny exhale included.

Postpartum anxiety does not always look like panic.
Sometimes it looks like constant checking, racing thoughts, irritability, trouble sleeping, or feeling like your brain has 47 tabs open and none of them are playing music.

You are not being dramatic.
Your mind and body may be asking for more support during a very real transition.

Cherishing is not just the occasional compliment or β€œthank you.”

It is the small, everyday way we show someone they matter. The softer good morning. The careful text. The extra thought. The way we hold someone’s heart with respect, generosity and care.

In this video, Roy Ellis, co-founder of Become Therapy and relational therapist, explains why cherishing plays such an important role in lasting relationships. When it feels hard to cherish, or when resentment starts taking over, relational therapy can help you understand what is getting in the way.

Perinatal mental health does not begin after the baby arrives.
Anxiety, sadness, overwhelm, and unwanted thoughts can show up during pregnancy too, even when everything looks β€œfine” from the outside.

Support does not have to wait until things feel unbearable. Care during pregnancy counts too. We also have a therapist who specializes in perinatal mental health care, offering support tailored to the emotional changes and challenges that can come with pregnancy and postpartum.
