Pregnancy and Postpartum Specialist, Motherhood, Couple's Therapy -
I’m a former people-pleaser and anxious high-achiever turned therapist. As a mom of three I know how easily motherhood can turn your world upside down — even if you thought you had it all figured out. I work with women and couples navigating the messy middle: You used to feel confident and capable, but anxiety, exhaustion, or disconnection are getting in the way. You’re trying to figure out who you are in motherhood (and why it feels so different from before). Your relationship has changed in ways you didn’t expect — and you want to get back on the same page.

I help people who look fine on the outside yet feel misunderstood and alone with battles no one sees. They wonder if their “normal” really hides trauma and sense that burying feelings can only last so long. In therapy, we give those hidden struggles a voice, make sense of the chaos, and build skills that put them back in charge.
Some of the most common concerns voiced in therapy are, “I don’t feel listened to,” “I struggle to communicate my thoughts,” and “I’m about to give up.” These thoughts carry emotional pain rooted in past hurts. To cope, many have learned to disconnect from their feelings just to survive.

I work best with people that feel overwhelmed by their thoughts, burdened by responsibility, and deeply attuned to the world around them - often to the point of exhaustion. If you care deeply, feel stuck, or are searching for meaning in the chaos, you're not alone.
If you're ready to reconnect with your authentic self - to live more fully, more intentionally, and in alignment with what truly matters - I'd be honored to work with you.

My ideal client is smart, self-aware, and tired of feeling stuck. They’re navigating identity confusion, dating burnout, anxiety, or family dynamics that still feel too loud in their head. They want to break patterns, stop second-guessing themselves, and feel emotionally grounded—for real this time. Many are Millennials or Gen Z, juggling cultural expectations, perfectionism, and self-doubt. They’re not broken—they’re just exhausted. They want a therapist who gets it, speaks their language, and helps them trust themselves again.

Who am I? I’m a warm, empathetic, joyful human who happens to be a therapist. I’m a realist with a sensitive soul. I’ve spent years supporting others through some of life’s most overwhelming moments. I bring my lived experience, humor & warm presence into the room with me.

Healing doesn't happen all at once, it happens in time - slow, steady, and shaped by relationship. My work centers around what's been buried or held back, making room for growth at a pace that honors where you've been and where you long to go.
I work with individuals who are ready to look beneath the surface and explore the roots of pain, patterns and disconnection to gently nurture what has been unattended. My style is relational, direct, and compassionate. I will both challenge and support you, holding space for the hard work while also leaving room for humor and human-ness.

Diana began her new behavioral health passion working in residential treatment programs designed to enhance skills for individuals reintegrating to community living after long-term institutionalization.

One of my mantras as a helping professional is to meet my clients where they are. The process of therapy is not one-size-fits-all; it is multifaceted and diverse, just like the world in which we live. Therefore, I strive to ensure that each client’s uniqueness feels both welcomed and honored in the space we share, and that the work undertaken in this space caters to their individual strengths, experiences, and challenges.

Does it ever feel like your brain is constantly running, making it hard to slow down or focus on what matters most? Maybe you struggle to start tasks, manage time, transition between responsibilities, or cope with big emotions. Executive functioning challenges and pressure to keep up can leave you feeling overwhelmed and stuck. Over time, repeated struggles, criticism, or feeling misunderstood can fuel perfectionism, shame, self doubt, and a harsh inner voice. In therapy, we will better understand how your brain works, strengthen emotional regulation, and build practical strategies that support you instead of working against you.
