In today's society, people feel pressure to choose a side or struggle with what to say. It's hard to determine where you fit in or who to trust. This is not a way to go through life. I help clients decipher what is important and refocus on those things that matter most. While we can't change the world overnight, we can help influence and change our environment and be a positive light to those we encounter. Life is a journey with ups and downs but it's up to us to embrace each day and use it to accomplish something new and choose to see the joy in each moment.

In our efforts to manage life's difficulties, it can be all too easy to find ourselves feeling stuck, lost, or even hopeless. You may have been struggling on your own to find solutions to your depression, anxiety, grief, or trauma, and are now recognizing that you need additional support. Maybe you have noticed that you no longer recognize yourself as a result of these events, and you want to reconnect with that piece of yourself that has been so silent. I would love the opportunity to walk with you on your journey to personal growth, fulfillment, and well-being.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, trauma, or relationship patterns that leave you feeling stuck or disconnected from yourself? Many of the individuals and couples I work with are carrying the weight of depression, addiction, or codependent dynamics that make it hard to feel steady, confident, or at peace. If you’re longing for clarity, emotional relief, and a way forward that feels grounded and meaningful, you don’t have to navigate it alone.

I work with individuals impacted by trauma who are ready to begin the journey toward healing and self-discovery.

My goal is to help clients move from surviving to truly living—finding peace, purpose, and confidence in their own story.

I've just opened some new availability on my schedule and am accepting new clients! My ideal client is one who is ready for change. I don't know many people who change when they are comfortable. By the time an individual or couple walks into a counseling office, they are usually in enough discomfort with their current reality that they are ready to work towards something new. I want to join with clients to identify what is not working, the source of their discomfort, and help set them up for and walk with them into successful healing, change and overall health.

My specialty is helping women tap into their inner strength and wisdom during life transitions, as well as treating Postpartum Depression/Anxiety and self-esteem issues.
My passion is helping women to regain a feeling of control and authorship in their lives. Too often as women, we expend so much energy trying to be the best worker/mother/partner we can be and end up putting our own needs at the bottom of the list. We may struggle with disempowering beliefs about ourself that we can't seem to break free from that undercut our true value and worth. We typically only come to therapy if we're hurting a great deal; though choosing to directly confront and sit with our pain can be difficult, it also has the potential to be truly transformative!

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.
