The Time to Address the Reality
of Motherhood is Now

One in five mothers will experience perinatal mood anxiety and depression (PMAD). The magical moments of bringing your newborn home for the first time can be overshadowed by sleep-deprivation, feelings of emptiness, and getting overwhelmed with responsibilities. So how do you truly prepare for this challenging journey?

Motherhood Is a Beautiful Time, But It Comes with Challenges

The most common questions I get from women in my practice are, “Why is this so hard? What is wrong with me?” It’s normal to feel nervous in anticipation of taking the best care of your newborn, and there is nothing wrong with that. But it isn’t easy!

And it isn’t impossible either. While you may feel the pressure to be the perfect mother, that doesn’t mean you have to completely lose yourself to become the best mama you can be. It is all about finding the right balance between your life now, and providing the best environment for your baby and your family. Wouldn’t it be great to have a guide that can take that pressure off your shoulders?

Toughing it out is not the answer, and can increase your risk of getting Postpartum Depression (PPD). There is so much information out there about how to be a good mom, but not how to be a happy mom.

That is why I created the Motherhood Survival Manual Masterclass.

This Course is Based on Practical, Proven, and Effective Strategies

As a family doctor for over 25 years, a perinatal psychotherapist for the last 13 years, and a mom of two, I have discovered predictable pitfalls, problems, and internal conflicts that come up during motherhood. After helping hundreds of patients, I have learned there is no “One Size Fits All” approach to motherhood. You will have access to multiple strategies for each parenting struggle, so you find what is the best for you and your baby. Postpartum depression is a possible reality, but together, we can make motherhood the best adventure in your life.

Testimonials 

“Dr. Zechowy’s support and guidance helped me to feel like there was hope again. She gave me the tools I needed to get to the other side of my depression and for my kids to have their mommy back. Forever grateful for her.”

LS

"Dr. Zechowy helped me and my spouse form a plan during my third pregnancy because of my history of PPD that educated and equipped us to prevent the situations that were likely to lead to another hard postpartum. I am 6 months postpartum and confident the plan we've followed is why I'm having the best of my three experiences."

LA

“Thanks to Dr. Zechowy’s practical and personalized guidance, my 3rd postnatal experience was my first, and only, in which I did not experience postpartum depression/anxiety and even found joy in a very challenging season.”

AR

“Dr. Zechowy’s program is an essential asset for any mom. Whether you are expecting your first baby or fourth- her tools are invaluable for managing the emotions that accompany the post partum period and beyond. I have gone through the program twice, after each of my pregnancies, and continue to learn new ideas and techniques from her teachings.”

Meet Your Instructor

Dr. Jill Zechowy, M.D., M.S., is a leading expert in the field of perinatal health, with a focus on the treatment and prevention of perinatal depression and anxiety. After finishing medical school over 25 years ago, Dr. Jill started working in family medicine. Some of her patients were pregnant women looking for guidance, struggling with anxiety and depression. After having two kids of her own and living through similar experiences to her patients, Dr. Jill went back for more schooling for a Master’s in Counseling psychology, graduate training in perinatal psychotherapy, honing her concentration on perinatal care. After years of research, Dr. Jill’s mission came to life: to guide mothers like you through the stages of pregnancy, birth, and caring for your newborn by using proven techniques that help combat perinatal mood anxiety and depression (PMAD).

 As a PMAD survivor, Dr. Jill knows the ups and downs of motherhood firsthand. Her proven strategies are grounded in the latest research for preventing postpartum depression. She also takes the holistic approach: showing how biological, psychological, and social factors impact a woman’s health and contribute to PPD. Her mission is to empower women with the knowledge and tools to prevent and manage symptoms of postpartum depression and anxiety, while using techniques to feel confident and supported throughout the journey of motherhood. 

 In addition to her clinical experience, Dr. Zechowy is committed to education and advocacy. She regularly speaks at conferences and workshops, and has provided training and consultations to healthcare providers and community organizations. The culmination of years of training and experience have been woven into the Motherhood Survival Manual Masterclass: a flexible and comprehensive guide from pregnancy into motherhood.

And it doesn’t matter if you’re a first time mom or an experienced mom. Start planning during your pregnancy with the most up-to-date techniques and strategies to avoid PPD, and take the guided steps to welcome your baby into the world. You deserve to experience motherhood to the fullest, and now you can. 

You’ve got this, Mama!
