Postpartum Trauma is Real — and You Are Not Alone 💜
The journey into parenthood can be beautiful, but it can also be overwhelming and deeply challenging. For some parents, childbirth and the postpartum period bring unexpected emotional pain, anxiety, or even symptoms of PTSD.

At Brooklyn Center for Mindfulness and Psychotherapy, we offer online therapy across Brooklyn and all of New York State, so you can receive expert, trauma-informed care from the comfort of your home. 💜

Healing in relationships doesn’t mean everything is broken — it means you care enough to grow, together. 💞

Couples therapy isn’t about pointing fingers or digging up the past to cause pain.
It’s about learning each other’s wounds, understanding where they come from, and building new ways to communicate, connect, and love.

Real intimacy is doing the hard work together. It’s showing up even when it’s uncomfortable.
It’s choosing each other, again and again — not because it’s perfect, but because it’s real.

If you’re on the journey of healing with your partner, know that you’re not alone. It’s brave. It’s beautiful. And it’s worth it. 🫶

You are more than the constant chatter in your mind. You are the one who can observe and choose your reactions.

🧠 Not All OCD Looks the Same 💭
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) has many faces. Here are some common subtypes recognized by the International OCD Foundation:

✨ Contamination OCD
Fear of germs, illness, or environmental toxins. Often leads to excessive washing, cleaning, or avoidance.

🔁 Checking OCD
Repetitive checking behaviors — like locking doors or turning off appliances — driven by fear of harm or making mistakes.

📏 Symmetry & Ordering OCD
An intense need for balance, precision, or things to feel “just right.” Can involve arranging, aligning, or repeating behaviors.

🙏 Scrupulosity
Obsessions about morality or religious “rightness.” Involves excessive praying, confessing, or avoiding situations that trigger guilt.

🧠 Harm OCD
Disturbing intrusive thoughts about accidentally or intentionally causing harm to yourself or others. These thoughts are ego-dystonic — they go against your values.

🚫 Sexual & Violent Intrusions
Unwanted, distressing thoughts or mental images involving taboo topics. People with this subtype often feel intense shame and isolation.

💡 Reminder: You are not your thoughts. OCD is a treatable mental health condition — Exposure & Response Prevention (ERP) is the gold standard.

📲 Reach out. You’re not alone. Help is out there.
