Atabeira is the goddess of the water, fertility, and birth. Atabeira is a representation of both: our Latinx culture and women. It serves as inspiration to accomplish our goals: Support individuals and families that go through perinatal depression, empower them, and improve their quality of life. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc32f12c6d964583630f143/1612992714214-P9NC4EJMXSQO1B6D7CCX/74C59A9E-3BE4-4F4A-8945-57EF39ECFC9E.jpg About Us Edith and Arlene have been friends for over 28 years. They graduated from high school, took different paths, and eventually both moved to San Antonio, TX. Edith and Arlene always knew they would like to collaborate together, as they have supported and complemented each other throughout the years. Edith has an entrepreneurial spirit and a wealth of technology knowledge, while Arlene is a passionate community educator and advocate. Working on developing Atabeira Wellness has been a goal and a dream come true. Arlene’s PPD journey increased our awareness about the stigma involving parenthood and mental health issues. It was difficult to navigate the system and find adequate help. As a result, some of our goals include increasing awareness and fostering an environment of compassion, understanding, and advocacy for anyone going through mental health issues including Postpartum Depression and related conditions. We assure you, with help and support, you can get through it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc32f12c6d964583630f143/1612847412530-LD82AN4IJ64V2H6JEWCI/IMG_4015.jpg About Us - Arlene F. Serrano, PhD I am a bilingual Latina, mom, ARMY veteran wife, daughter, sister, aunt, and friend. I am an educator and published author with over 13 years of experience in K-12, community and higher education. I have worked with families, adults with disabilities, refugees, and Hispanic immigrants among other populations. I have been committed to development of educational opportunities for marginalized populations in the local community. I am also a survivor of Postpartum Depression. I became a biological mama at 39 years old. I thought I would never have children and I got pregnant in March 2018, one month after my dad passed unexpectedly. My son came as a surprise to fill our life with happiness and love. I did my best to keep a positive mindset, although there were so many unexpected changes happening simultaneously. After going through this process, I have realized that I was experiencing some anxiety before giving birth. The first weeks after my son was born, I felt shaky and was not able to sleep or eat. Soon after that, I was having crying episodes, ongoing anxiety, obsessive thoughts and worries. 4 weeks after delivery, I was diagnosed with PPD, PPA, and OCD. It has been a recovery journey and I am grateful for the support I have received from many people. This experience has inspired me to help other individuals going through a similar process. Together, we can create a better postpartum experience for parents and families. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc32f12c6d964583630f143/1611091532825-23JLHJ5Y3FK5EIBYX8JO/10CD2BD6-40BE-47C5-89CE-E29298729071.jpeg About Us - Edith Rosa My name is Edith Rosa. I have lived in Texas for the last 12 years. I am an entrepreneur, photographer, and silversmith. I hold a bachelor's degree in Communications, and have completed studies in culinary arts and photography. I am compassionate, understanding, and a firm believer in empowering others. I do my best to keep a positive mindset and look at the silver lining. I firmly believe in building community by fostering relationships and collaborating with others. Helping individuals to overcome postpartum depression and other mental health issues is a cause dear to my heart. Observing my friend going through postpartum depression was a life changing experience. She had one of the most precious moments in her life as she became a mom but with that came her postpartum depression journey. It was difficult to navigate the system and start the journey to recovery. After researching the stories of other individuals going through a similar experience, it became apparent the need to normalize mental health issues and streamline mental health care. It is also essential to assist women in becoming more independent and provide a path to self-sufficiency. I look forward to foster partnerships, contribute to the community, and empower families. By fostering these partnerships, I also look forward to the empowerment of women by owning small businesses and being confident in their talents and identities. https://atabeirawellness.org/what-is-postpartum-depression daily 0.75 2021-03-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc32f12c6d964583630f143/1611088376222-X05HTPACT7NZ3P65IQJP/image-asset.jpeg What is postpartum depression? - Perinatal Mood Disorders https://atabeirawellness.org/ayuda-en-espanol daily 0.75 2021-04-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc32f12c6d964583630f143/1607466068443-G9W9QJRMIHRN1KUFK602/pexels-kat-jayne-568027+%281%29.jpg Ayuda en Español - A pesar de que el término “depresión postparto” es comúnmente utilizado hay diferentes tipos de enfermedades que la mujer puede experimentar. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc32f12c6d964583630f143/1612847412530-LD82AN4IJ64V2H6JEWCI/IMG_4015.jpg Ayuda en Español - Arlene F. Serrano, PhD Soy Latina, mamá, esposa, hija, hermana, tía, y amiga. Además, soy educadora y autora. Tengo más de 13 años de experiencia trabajando en escuelas, universidades, y en la comunidad. He trabajado con niños y familias, personas con discapacidades del desarrollo, refugiados, e inmigrantes hispanos. He estado comprometida con el desarrollo de oportunidades educacionales para poblaciones marginadas en la comunidad. También soy sobreviviente de depresión postnatal. Me convertí en mamá biológica a los 39 años. Siempre pensé que no iba tener niños y quedé embarazada en marzo de 2018, un mes después del fallecimiento de mi papá. Así que estaba de duelo al mismo tiempo que estaba embarazada. Este embarazo nos llenó de mucha alegría. Hice lo posible por tener una mentalidad positiva a pesar de estar experimentando tantos cambios al mismo tiempo. En retrospectiva, puedo decir que comencé a experimentar ansiedad y pensamientos recurrentes durante el embarazo. Las primeras semanas luego de dar a luz me encontraba temblorosa, sin poder comer o dormir. Luego, comenzaron los episodios de llanto, la ansiedad constante, las preocupaciones y pensamientos obsesivos. 4 semanas luego de tener al bebé, fui diagnosticada con depresión postparto, ansiedad y OCD. El proceso de recuperación ha tomado tiempo pero debo decir que me siento mucho mejor. Estoy muy agradecida de todas las personas que me han apoyado durante este proceso. Esta experiencia me ha servido como inspiración para ayudar a otras personas a tener una mejor experiencia durante y luego de su embarazo. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc32f12c6d964583630f143/1612845086811-7M3XDS3ZTXPEG47Z16FJ/todo%2Bes%2Bposible.jpg Ayuda en Español https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc32f12c6d964583630f143/1611091532825-23JLHJ5Y3FK5EIBYX8JO/10CD2BD6-40BE-47C5-89CE-E29298729071.jpeg Ayuda en Español - Edith Rosa Mi nombre es Edith Rosa.

Soy una persona compasiva y firme creyente en el empoderamiento de los demás. Trato de mantener una actitud positiva y siempre buscar el lado positivo de cada situación. Creo fielmente en apoyar a la comunidad y colaborar con otros. Ayudar a otros individuos a superar la depresión posparto y otros problemas mentales es una causa importante para mí. Ver a mi amiga pasar por el proceso de depresión posparto fue una experiencia que cambió mi vida. Ella estaba pasando por un momento hermoso y también por la depresión postparto Fue un proceso difícil de navegar. Luego de buscar infomación y leer sobre las experiencias similares de otras personas, se hizo evidente la necesidad de normalizar la salud mental y sus efectos. También considero esencial ayudar a las mujeres a ser mas auto-suficientes y proveerles herramientas necesarias para su independencia económica. Espero fomentar colaboraciones, contribuir a la comunidad y empoderar a las familias. Al fomentar estas asociaciones también espero a las personas a tener mas confianza en sus talentos e identidades. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc32f12c6d964583630f143/1612850646921-MWGUPSBXIRTZZ70JS71P/image-asset.jpeg Ayuda en Español - Buscando ayuda con su doctor Si usted está en crisis, por favor llame a su doctor o ginecólogo (a).
