Some PMAD symptoms don’t get talked about enough, especially on social media.

We sat down with one of our Perinatal Psychologists, Dr. Emily Sauer, to dive further into this topic.

Beyond anxiety and depression, we often see social isolation show up during pregnancy and postpartum. Staying home can start as rest or recovery, but over time it can turn into feeling overwhelmed by the idea of being seen, needing everything to be “perfect” before reconnecting, or pulling away from support altogether.

We also see emotional masking, appearing “fine” on the outside while struggling deeply on the inside. That disconnect can feel exhausting and incredibly lonely.

You’re not imagining this, and you’re not alone. These are real, valid experiences we see every day, and they’re treatable with the right support.

Perinatal depression doesn’t always look the way people expect it to.
It doesn’t always look like constant crying or being unable to get out of bed.

Sometimes it looks like going through the motions while feeling numb.
Sometimes it looks like exhaustion that rest doesn’t touch.
Sometimes it looks like guilt for not feeling “grateful enough,” even when you care deeply about your baby.

If any of this feels familiar, please know: you are not broken, and you are not alone. Support can make a real difference.

📞 Call us at 212-335-0034 to speak with our team and learn how we can support you.

You deserve care, compassion, and help, exactly as you are. 🤍

The New Year comes with a lot of pressure. To reset, improve, and move forward fast.
But healing doesn’t follow a calendar.

Our Day Program offers structured, compassionate perinatal mental health treatment, without staying overnight in a hospital, for those who need more than weekly therapy right now.

You don’t need a resolution.
You may need more intensive support. 🤍

📞 call 212-335-0034 to speak to a real clinician who understands.

This is the kind of 2026 energy we need.

This is a beautiful reminder that none of us are meant to do this alone. 💛

Behind every tired parent is often another tired parent, also running on fumes, showing up, cheering them on, and helping however they can. Especially at the start of a new year, when expectations feel high and energy feels low, community matters more than ever.

And if you don’t have this kind of support right now, we want you to know: we’re here for you. We can be your village.

Thank you for capturing this so perfectly, ✨

At The Motherhood Center, we believe real support, without judgment, can make all the difference. If survival mode is still your reality as the year begins, you don’t have to navigate it alone.

As the calendar flips, there’s often a quiet (or not so quiet) pressure to reinvent yourself overnight.

New goals. New habits. New you.

But if you’re pregnant or postpartum, you’re already doing something big.
Your body is healing or changing.
Your nervous system is adapting.
Your brain is working overtime.

You are not starting from zero.
You don’t need a resolution, a reinvention, or a fix.

This season can be about softness, steadiness, and support instead.
And if the weight of expectations feels heavy, you don’t have to carry it alone.
We’re here for you.

If you’re struggling or need extra support, call us at 212-335-0034. 💛

Happy New Year from The Motherhood Center! ✨🎉

As we step into 2026, we remain committed to breaking the stigma around Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders (PMADs), which affect 1 in 5 mothers and birthing people.

PMADs are common, treatable, and—most importantly—you are never alone. 💕

This year, we’re here to continue supporting you with compassionate, evidence-based care, meeting you wherever you are on your parenting journey. Here’s to a year of healing, connection, and growth—for you and your family. ✨

As we reflect on this past year, we’re filled with gratitude. 💛

From supporting patients and families, to hosting and attending community events, to showing up at conferences and conversations centered on maternal mental health—this year was one of connection, learning, and impact.

Thank you to everyone who trusted us, partnered with us, and showed up alongside us. We look forward to continuing this work together in the year ahead. ✨

When you’re in survival mode… and your mom friend who’s also in survival mode tries to help 😅

Add new year expectations to the mix and suddenly everyone is just doing their best. If this feels familiar, consider this your reminder: surviving counts, help is allowed, and perfection is not required.

And if survival mode feels like it’s lasting a little too long, professional support can help too.

As the new year approaches, it’s easy to feel pressure to reset, resolve, and reinvent.
But growth doesn’t have to be linear and healing doesn’t follow a timeline. Especially if you’re experiencing a Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorder (PMAD).

This year, we invite you to rethink expectations that don’t serve you and encourage you to make room for compassion, support, and flexibility.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed or struggling as the year begins, you don’t have to navigate it alone. Our team is here to support you. Call us at 212-335-0034 to learn more about our services or speak to a car coordinator who understands. 💛

This is your reminder that the days between the holidays and the new year don’t have to be productive, inspired, or transformational.

That in-between feeling is real, and it’s allowed.

If your energy feels low, scattered, or unsure, you’re not behind.
You’re in a pause. Not a reset.

This can be a time to soften expectations, move a little slower, and do less on purpose if you're able to.

Rest, reflect if you want, or simply exist.
There’s no rush to arrive anywhere new.

Give yourself permission to pull it back a little.
We’re here with you when you’re ready.

If you’re feeling like you need extra support during this in-between season, our team is here. Call us at 212-335-0034.

As we inch closer to the new year, here’s a gentle reminder 💛

Showing up for new parents doesn’t have to mean having all the answers, it means offering presence, respect, and real support.

As we head into a new chapter, let’s lead with compassion, listen more than we advise, and remind the parents in our lives that they don’t have to do this alone. ✨

Sometimes, the most meaningful support is simply being there.

Who We Are

At The Motherhood Center, we recognize that becoming a mom isn’t always easy. Sometimes there can be moments of joy, but there can also be moments when you feel anxious or sad.

At The Motherhood Center, we provide supportive services for new and expecting moms, including a range of treatment options for women suffering from perinatal mood and anxiety disorders (PMADs.)
