PMADs 101: Managing Postpartum Anxiety & Depression with Rachel Brabec
In this episode of Omaha Mom Talks, I'm joined by therapist, perinatal mental health expert, and a personal friend Rachel Brabec to discuss PMADs (Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders). We break down what PMADs are, how to recognize symptoms like postpartum depression and anxiety, and when to seek support. Rachel also shares her personal postpartum journey and expert advice on navigating postpartum mental health, addressing common myths, and building a strong support system.
If you’re pregnant, postpartum, or supporting someone in this season of life, this episode is for you. Remember, you’re not alone and help is available.

Welcome to Omaha Mom Talks
Welcome to Omaha Mom Talks! I’m your host, Jessie Gutierrez - a mom, licensed mental health therapist, and now your podcast host. In this first episode, I’m sharing a bit about my journey from small-town Nebraska to running my private therapy practice and navigating parenthood alongside my husband and our two whirlwinds.
We’ll explore why I’m passionate about maternal mental health, how postpartum anxiety shaped my career path, and what you can expect from future episodes. This podcast is all about real conversations - about the highs, lows, and everything in between - because parenting doesn’t come with a manual, but it should come with a community.
What to Expect:
Honest chats on perinatal mental health, mom guilt, identity shifts, and more
Expert advice from therapists, doctors, and fellow moms
Relatable stories that remind you: you’re not alone and support is available
Join me on this journey as we support, connect, and lift each other up. Whether you're seeking support for postpartum, early motherhood, or simply needing someone to walk alongside you on this beautiful and messy journey called life - this space is for you. You’re doing better than you think and I’m so glad you’re here.
