Anxiety is a nasty B. A huge percentage of new parents right now are anxious. Growing and parenting a human being adds a whole new level of stress that we must learn healthy strategies to manage our anxious brains. Add in a global pandemic and the current political climate and it’s no wonder a lot of us are struggling and feeling like we’re in survival mode! Today we are speaking with Olivia Scobie who specializes in perinatal mood, birth trauma, and parental mental health.

After a chaotic transition into motherhood, Olivia Scoobie spent years in academia studying gender, families, and parenting. She had a deep desire to work with families one on one, so she got out of the classroom and began helping parents struggling with perinatal mood disorders feel okay again and assisting overwhelmed/exhausted families deepen resiliency to get through life’s challenging moments. Olivia is known for bringing a mixture of kindness, humor, creativity, and unwavering care to every client. She use a strength-based and relational approach, and draw from a wide variety of therapeutic modalities such as mindfulness, narrative therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) to offer unique support catered to your mental health needs.
