I work with women (15+) and moms who feel like they’re constantly carrying more than they can manage—whether that’s anxiety, depression, life changes, relationship challenges, discovering purpose, grief after pregnancy loss, or the struggles of pregnancy and postpartum. Many are exhausted from trying to keep up with the demands of motherhood and life, or managing ADHD while putting themselves last. They want a place where they can finally set it all down, be honest about what’s really going on, and learn tools that make life feel lighter. Most of all, they long to feel supported, steady, and more like themselves again.
I support women who are carrying more than they expected—whether it’s postpartum changes, anxiety, grief, or everyday demands. In our work, you’ll find a compassionate space to breathe, process, and move toward healing at your own pace.
You don’t have to carry everything on your own. I offer flexible in-person or virtual sessions to fit your needs, creating a supportive space where your whole self is valued. I also provide a free consultation so we can connect and see if working together feels like the right fit for your journey.

I support women and mothers who feel overwhelmed, burned out, or disconnected from themselves. Together, we slow things down, tend to your nervous system, and gently explore patterns that no longer serve you. Therapy can help you feel more grounded, emotionally steady, confident in your boundaries, and more like yourself again.
