Welcome! I specialize providing psychotherapy for adults coping with depression, anxiety and stress. LGBTQ clients are always welcome. I have a special interest in providing mental health support for conception, pregnancy, postpartum, adoption, and infertility. Whether you're currently pregnant, coping with the stress of a new baby, dealing with infertility or considering adoption, I would be honored to help you navigate the seasons of new parenthood. I also enjoy working with birthparents, adoptive families and adoptees coping with identity, reunion, and grief issues.
