overwhelmed and overstimulated mom with toddler boy

Sanam Shamtobi, PhD, pmh-c

Welcome to my practice! I specialize in perinatal mental health, couple's work, anxiety, identity transitions, and helping people overcome a feeling of "stuck-ness". With over a decade of experience, I provide strong evidence based care combined with lived experience in order to connect with women in navigating the most transformative—and often disorienting—seasons of life.

My work is directive, grounded, and holds you at the center of every intervention. I want you to feel like you can organize all the thoughts in your head and figure out how to label the boundless emotions you are feeling without it feeling pressured and prescribed. I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Family Systems work, and am trained in various other modalities focused on helping women thrive in the perinatal period. Whether you and your partner are thinking about starting a family, you are adjusting to new motherhood, grieving what you’ve lost, or just trying to feel like yourself again, there is space for you to show up exactly as you are—no masks, no shame, no pressure to have it all figured out.
