Whether you're newly pregnant or approaching delivery, you are undoubtedly experiencing a plethora of physical and emotional changes and challenges. We are here to focus on you, not just baby. Our services encompass education in pelvic health concepts/your anatomy, energy management training,  exercise prescription, and lifestyle practices and behavioral strategies to support your emotional and social health.  Splinting, supports, and adaptive equipment (like special cushions, positioning devices, etc) may be recommended. You will learn how your breath is the "driver" of your core and pelvic floor and build your own skill set to support your birthing experience and early postpartum rehabilitation. 

She Thrives Therapy prioritizes your mental health, right along with your physical well-being.  We also understand the natural, physiological changes happening in your brain due to hormonal shifts and how that translates into your function from a cognitive and behavioral perspective. With this knowledge and through education, adaptive strategies, and planning, we can help you navigate your daily routines, demands, and relationships as you move along your transition into motherhood.
