I specialize in supporting people experiencing anxiety or depression in pregnancy/early parenthood and early adulthood. Becoming a parent is profoundly life-changing. While we anticipate the joys of parenthood, we can feel blindsided when it gets hard. It can bring up intense, sometimes scary feelings, be overwhelming or lonely. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space for you to understand, process and cope with the changes in your life. By talking about your experiences, you can feel less alone and less overwhelmed, and together we can find ways for you to feel grounded again.
I'll support you in deepening your self-understanding and we can explore difficult thoughts, feelings, and experiences including self-criticism, difficult relationships (current or past), stress and anxiety, trauma, feeling down, lost or just plain stuck. I can help you gain clarity, new perspectives and strategies to get through challenging times.
Asking for help and taking time for yourself isn’t always easy. The right support can make all the difference. Reach out if you think we’d be a good fit!
