312: Postpartum OCD & Realizing You're Not Alone - with Kaylee Bullen, OCD & Anxiety Therapist

Kaylee Bullen is a licensed therapist specialized in treating high anxiety and OCD, including postpartum OCD. Her practice services clients virtually across California, Michigan, and Louisiana. In addition to therapy, she also creates educational and relatable therapy content on social media to help normalize the mental health experience.

In this episode, we dive deep into postpartum OCD. We explore what it actually is, common misconceptions, and why so many parents may isolate and experience shame around these thoughts.

We go over examples of what intrusive thoughts may sound like related to the postpartum period, guilt and shame that may follow, and how the fear of being judged or misunderstood keeps many people from reaching out for help.

Whether or not you resonate with this specific theme, we hope you know you are not alone in your thoughts. Your thoughts do not reflect who you are and what you value.
