I love working with women and couples who are feeling angry, confused, overwhelmed, or depressed after giving birth. Breastfeeding may have been more difficult than you thought. You might feel like you are putting on a good face for the outside world, but inside, you worry you aren't doing parenthood right. You might worry that you're not enough for your baby. Let me tell you right now-- YOU ARE. You are not alone, you are not to blame, and with help you can find hope again.
I work with women who have experienced miscarriage or stillbirth. These kinds of losses are often invisible-- we might feel like we don't have enough space or permission to grieve. I care about your experience, and your child. I use Gottman Method Couples Counseling to help couples reconnect after loss, and Brainspotting to heal trauma.
We can explore the shame associated with these circumstances, finding freedom from the motherhood mythology. Working with a maternal mental health condition or grieving the loss of a little one that left too soon, there are concrete, evidence-based steps we can take together to help you find new normal.
