Hi! - Welcome to Root & Reach Counseling. I’m a licensed clinical social worker, specializing in perinatal mental health. I love helping adults navigate anxiety, stress, life transitions, and the ups and downs of parenthood, using a collaborative and supportive approach to help you feel heard and empowered. When I’m not in session, you can usually find me outdoors, playing darts or golf, hanging out with my family, or chasing after my two energetic dogs. I bring the same sense of curiosity, patience, and humor to my work that I do to life—and I can’t wait to meet you. Book with me now by clicking on my website.

To me, being Perinatal Certified means showing up with specialized knowledge, compassion, and understanding for individuals navigating pregnancy, postpartum, fertility challenges, loss, and the realities of parenthood. It's about helping clients feel less alone, more supported, and empowered.

I believe therapy should begin where you are. My goal is to help you feel comfortable, supported, and understood as we start the therapeutic process together. Treatment often involves weekly sessions, with personalized goals and practical skills to work on between appointments. This approach can help you stay present, reduce overwhelm, and create steady, realistic growth in everyday life.
