At some point, we all experience changes that are difficult to navigate. They throw us off balance and everything can seem more confusing, upsetting, and overwhelming. These moments often signal a need for support, space to process, and gentle healing. I work with individuals who are feeling dissatisfied or disconnected in their relationships, coping with the loss of a loved one, or struggling to adjust to significant life transitions. I have a particular passion for supporting individuals navigating infertility/IVF, pregnancy loss, and the emotional complexities of motherhood—experiences that can feel deeply isolating.

You didn't expect to feel like this. Maybe you thought the hardest part would be the treatments. The appointments. The waiting. But what nobody prepared you for was the grief. I'm speaking to the grief that shows up whether you're still in the middle of trying or mourning what hasn't happened yet. The kind of grief that's hard to explain to people who haven't been there. You don't have to explain it to me. I work with individuals navigating fertility challenges, pregnancy and postpartum transitions, trauma, LGBTQIA+ affirming therapy, and the emotional weight of the perinatal journey.

We all have words in our heart that are difficult to speak. Therapy is a great opportunity to bring voice to those words and make sense of their meaning so we can have a greater understanding of who we are and our place in this world. I view therapy as a unique opportunity to know and understand yourself in more profound and meaningful ways so as to allow true clarity, purpose, and healing in everyday life. We will move at a pace that feels comfortable to you, and, ultimately, we will work together to bridge your inner emotional life to past and current experiences to then provide a renewed and hopeful understanding of yourself.

Using somatic therapy, EMDR, art journaling, mindfulness and a deep curiosity we will work together to discover what’s holding you back and how you can let that go to be present in this moment. My approach combines insight oriented work with development of mindful, cognitive, emotional and behavioral skills to address anxiety, addiction, self-esteem, trauma, perfectionism, and a variety of life transitions. Working from this model is extremely helpful for those that desire a deeper understanding of the underlying patterns that effect their daily lives and create challenges for them in a variety of relationships.

My approach to therapy is strength-based and trauma-informed, grounded in the belief that we all are doing the best that we know how, given our past and current experiences. With a deeper exploration and understanding of what we feel and why we cope the way we do, we can slowly start to shift unwanted ways of responding and start living with more clarity and intention.
I have worked in the mental health field for over 15 years in a variety of treatment settings including college counseling centers and hospitalization programs. My work has focused on helping individuals improve their relationships with self and with others.
