Right now, you may be facing a miscarriage, stillbirth, or TFMR, and need someone to help carry this pain. Or maybe you're struggling to understand why your birth went so wrong, or are feeling overwhelmed by scary thoughts. Or you might be sitting with the impossible knowledge that people in your life chose to hurt you, while you can't imagine causing your child any pain. If any of this sounds familiar, I can help.
You don't have to suffer. By bringing together your lived experience and my knowledge of trauma, perinatal mental health, and children's development, we can work together to understand your story and get you feeling better.
My ultimate goal is to provide compassionate and informed support, with a splash of creativity and humour. You can expect opportunities for creative expression through art, music, writing, and metaphors, plus practical strategies to improve your day-to-day. Reach out and let's get started!

I passed the exam to become a PMH-C in 2022. In 2024 I gave up the credential as an act of protest of Postpartum Support International's unconscionable silence on the genocide in Palestine.

I do my best work with folx who are facing trauma or grief around pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and their own childhood experiences. I ask clients to fill out an intake form before our first session to avoid the anxiety of answering questions on the spot, and get them feeling better sooner. Sessions typically include creativity, laughter, and a healthy dose of feminism- no blank-slate here!

If you're used to CBT, my approach is a little different! I mainly use Narrative and Expressive Arts therapies, which means that sessions with me are full of storytelling, creativity, and compassion. Think more, "how have the patriarchy and capitalism shown up here?" and less, "how does that make you feel?"
