Kate Littlefield of Through to Thrive is an incredible resource for anyone preparing for postpartum and parenthood. As someone who works in the perinatal space, I have seen firsthand how her compassionate, evidence-based support helps new parents feel more confident and prepared for the transition into this new stage of life. Kate brings a wealth of knowledge, a deeply empathetic approach, and truly meets families where they are, offering guidance that is both practical and affirming. Her services are invaluable for those seeking a smoother and more supported postpartum experience. I highly recommend her to any expectant parent looking for expert care and thoughtful preparation.

Frequently asked questions

What is the online class?

The online class, Prep for Post, is our flagship course that aims to move postpartum mental health support upstream. We hope to make parent wellness planning as commonplace as newborn care classes or birth classes, but with a focus on helping PARENTS get themselves ready for the adjustment to life with a baby. Clinical levels of postpartum mood and anxiety disorders impact 1 in 5 birthing parents and 1 in 10 non-birthing parents - it's the most common complication of birth. Prep for Post walks you through comprehensive planning that focuses on understanding the postpartum landscape so that you can make a realistic plan for support for YOU for the whole first year. We also help you begin thinking about the kind of parent you want to be based on your lived experiences.

Do you take insurance?

Most of our clinicians do not accept insurance. Kate offers Superbills for you to submit to your insurance company. Please note that insurance does not cover Therapy Intensives and only specific plans cover our online classes. You may pay for any of our services using your HSA or FSA account.
