Physical and emotional challenges during pregnancy
Can anyone recommend a therapist or support group in Berkeley/Oakland for a newly-pregnant woman with Rheumatoid Arthritis who is also struggling with all-day morning sickness, constipation, anal fissures, exhaustion, and intense smell sensitivity? What a combo!

Congrats and also ugh sorry, it sounds like a lot you’re dealing with. Not sure if you’ve chosen your OB but we did the Centering program at Sutter Health Milvia location which was super helpful to have a cohort of women to go through it all together. Not therapy in the professsional sense but very therapeutic and a great way to build a better relationship with your OB. There are a few acupuncturists that specialize in pregnancy which might help with some of your symptoms. Happy to look up who those were if you’re interested. Hang in there!
