You thought you’d feel happier after having your baby—but instead you feel overwhelmed, anxious, or not like yourself. I help new moms process birth experiences and navigate the intensity of early parenthood. You’re here because you feel worried and anxious, and you know that your childhood experiences impact how you parent today. You don’t want to repeat the same patterns that got you here in the first place. These issues impact your relationships. It’s time to learn to parent differently and stop being afraid of making the same mistakes your parents did.

Life can be tough sometimes. Whether you're navigating a diagnosis, feeling overwhelmed by stress or anxiety, or just wanting to feel more fulfilled in your relationships and day-to-day life, you're not alone, and you don’t have to figure it all out on your own.
My goal as your therapist is to support you in creating a life that feels meaningful and enjoyable.
