Victoria Hallgren, MA
Perinatal & Postpartum Therapy in St. Paul, MN
New client openings for Perinatal/Maternal Mental Health!
Adding a baby to your life can come with all sorts of challenges. From trying to conceive, to not enjoying the “pregnancy glow,” to feeling the pressure to “bounce back” postpartum; there can be many bumps in the road during this time. Are you trying to navigate these difficulties on your own? Is this experience just not what you expected or hoped it would be?
The time from trying to conceive through pregnancy and the first year postpartum can look very different for everyone. Whatever it looks like, your experience and feelings matter. Perinatal and postpartum therapy can offer a space to process what you’re experiencing and receive support as you navigate this phase of your life.

I am also passionate about supporting individuals with concerns relating to interpersonal stressors, life transitions, anxiety, depression, and self-esteem. I also work with individuals on communication, boundary setting, relationship concerns, and challenging family dynamics.
Outside of therapy, I enjoy spending time with my spouse and my son, playing with my two cats, and going on adventures with my dog. I enjoy Star Wars, crocheting, reading, and watching sports.
I am available for in-person therapy on Grand Ave in St. Paul, MN as well as telehealth therapy appointments. I am currently under the supervision of Taylor Ryan, MA LPCC, while working as a Clinical Trainee on the Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) Track in accordance with the State of Minnesota requirements.
