Meet Your Therapist
Jacqueline Gordon, MSW, LCSW
Pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period are not just physical experiences, they are profound emotional and neurological transitions. I specialize in working with women navigating birth trauma, postpartum depression (PPD), postpartum anxiety (PPA), and the complex identity shifts that come with motherhood.
While society often focuses on the baby, I focus on you.
You may be:
• Replaying your birth experience over and over
• Feeling anxious or on edge constantly
• Experiencing intrusive thoughts
• Struggling with guilt, shame, or disconnection
• Wondering why you don’t “feel like yourself”
You are not broken.
You are not failing.
And you are not alone.
Birth trauma can happen even when everyone says the baby is “healthy.” Postpartum depression and anxiety can show up whether this is your first child or your fourth. These experiences are common — but they are manageable with treatment. My approach is trauma-informed and grounded in nervous system regulation. Together, we create space to process your story, rebuild a sense of safety in your body, and help you reconnect with yourself, not just as a mother, but as a whole person.
Motherhood changes you.
Therapy helps you integrate that change, instead of being overwhelmed by it.
