E11: Beyond Birth: Unpacking Maternal Mental Health with Gayane Aramyan, LMFT Mighty As A Mother

    • Self-Improvement

Continuing on our Maternal Mental Health Series, we are honored to speak with Gayane Aramyan, LMFT. Gayane is a mother and licensed marriage and family therapist practicing out of Sherman Oaks, California (she also treats patients virtually!) and has been featured in Huffington Post and The LA Times.  We sat down for a candid conversation about adequately preparing for postpartum (it’s more than registering for the DockATot!), practicing self-compassion as a mother, identifying and understanding postpartum depression and anxiety, and how to know when you should talk to someone about your mental health. Our goal is to create a safe space in which we break the stigma surrounding maternal mental health and while medication is sometimes the ultimate treatment, self-awareness in tandem with therapy can often aid many women who are unknowingly suffering. If you have a maternal mental health topic you want covered on our show, please send us an email: mightyasamotherpodcast@gmail.com. We would love to hear from you!  Links: 1. https://www.therapywithgayane.com/ 2. Therapy with Gayane Instagram 3.
