Ostermiller Counseling in Rexburg will hold another free therapy group for women who suffer from postpartum depression and anxiety. The group begins on Jan. 26 at 8 p.m. and will meet for eight weeks. Rachel Zeyer Ostermiller and Jocelyn Hobbs, both licensed master social workers, run the group. 

"Postpartum depression and anxiety affects between 15 to 20% of postpartum moms," Hobbs said. "Everyone goes through a mood change or a baby blues type thing, but sometimes it's heavier than that. And sadly, that's not discussed with very many people."
