At Thrive Postpartum, Couples & Family Therapy, we support dads, non-birthing partners, and queer parents who may be experiencing emotional struggles after the birth of a baby. Whether you're feeling anxious, down, disconnected, or overwhelmed, your mental health matters—and your role in your child’s life is just as important. You don’t have to navigate this alone.

Supporting Dads and Non-Birthing Partners Through the Transition to Parenthood
Becoming a parent is a profound life transition—often filled with joy, new responsibilities, and unexpected emotional challenges. While much of the focus is placed on the birthing parent, it’s important to recognize that dads, non-birthing partners, and queer parents can also experience mental health struggles during the prenatal and postpartum period.

Prenatal and postpartum depression in non-birthing partners is real, valid, and deserves compassionate support and effective care. At Thrive, we understand the unique emotional needs of non-birthing partners during this transformative time. Our therapists offer a safe and supportive space to process your experience, reduce distress, and feel more grounded in your role as a parent.

Our goal is to equip non-birthing partners, including dads and parents of all identities, with practical tools to manage and regulate their emotions. Through support and guidance, we aim to help each parent show up as their best self—for their own well-being, their partner, and their child.
