As humans, we all experience seasons of change; these seasons can feel empowering and exciting however they can also feel disorganized or unexpected. If you are experiencing symptoms of anxiety, depression, pregnancy related concerns, or other life stressors and/or transitions; I am here to help. Our time together can be a space to not only identify root causes of negative thought patterns, self-doubt, and low self-confidence but to then work towards independently navigating these experiences. My goal is to provide therapeutic, non-judgmental support and guidance as we explore both vulnerability and strength.

Life can be joyful and fulfilling, while it also brings stress, pain, and disappointment. Often life experiences can leave us feeling overwhelmed to the point that we find ourselves simply surviving rather than thriving. Loss, trauma, discrimination, relationship troubles, or simply adjusting to change can contribute to anxiety, depression, and ineffective patterns of thinking and behaving. As a therapist, my goal is to provide a safe and supportive space in which to better understand your thinking patterns, feelings, and behaviors in a way that empowers you to effect positive changes in all areas of your life.

“The first step towards getting somewhere is to decide that you are not going to stay where you are.”--Unknown The decision to seek help is one that is often arrived at after long periods of suffering. We so often cling to what is familiar, even when what is familiar is causing us and those around us tremendous pain. We go to great lengths to avoid coming face to face with our vulnerability, and unknowingly prolong our suffering despite our best efforts to master it. For many of us, we simply do what we know, choosing the familiarity of pain over the inherently fear-inducing path of change. Simply stated--change is hard. While change is inevitably challenging, it does not have to be undertaken alone. Finding a qualified therapist to support you through this process can make a significant difference in both the outcome and the process.

Pregnancy, Prenatal, Postpartum Therapists

What are the most effective ways to address pregnancy, prenatal, and postpartum concerns?

The most effective way to address pregnancy, prenatal, and postpartum concerns is by finding a therapist who has prior experience helping other patients overcome the challenge being faced. For example, a marriage and family therapist may have experience helping couples adjust to their new relationship dynamic. An anxiety specialist may have experience helping with phobias or illness anxiety related to the child’s health. A depression specialist may have experience treating postpartum depression.

When should I seek treatment for prenatal or postpartum concerns?

Pregnancy and the postpartum period involve intense physical and mental changes; a degree of upset and instability is normal. However, if these changes impair daily functioning, it may be time to seek help. This distinction is pertinent for postpartum depression: A period of teariness, irritability, and distress is difficult but normal in the one to two weeks after childbirth (sometimes called the “baby blues.”) But if feelings of sadness and hopelessness persist beyond that period, the person should seek treatment.

How do I manage worries during pregnancy or the postnatal period?

A therapist can help patients develop the tools they need to manage anxieties during or after pregnancy. Cognitive behavioral therapy can help people identify and reframe harmful patterns of thought, and change their behaviors. Other techniques and skills can allow people to develop acceptance, psychological flexibility, self-compassion, communication skills, and more.

Are there specific medications for postpartum depression?

In 2019, the FDA approved the first medication designed to treat postpartum depression. The medication is called brexanolone and is delivered intravenously by a medical professional over the course of a few days. However, typical antidepressants, which are more accessible, can also treat postpartum depression. The disorder is often best treated through a combination of medication and therapy.
