My passion and experience is in working with women on issues related to pregnancy/ postpartum, loss, birth trauma, anxiety and depression, life transitions, relationship conflict, work/life balance, and challenges in midlife related to perimenopause.
If you're here, chances are something has shifted — maybe you just had a baby and don't quite recognize your own life anymore. Maybe your body and mind are changing in ways no one prepared you for in midlife, and you're wondering if this is just "how it is now." Maybe you're feeling stretched between competing demands, or simply recognizing that something needs to change. Wherever you are, I'm glad you're here. These seasons of life can bring irritability, overwhelm, identity shifts, relationship changes, and a sense of not quite feeling like yourself. Together we can move you thru this season with tools, clarity, and confidence.

I support young adult women as they navigate life's transitions. Life's transitions can feel tender and overwhelming—whether you're stepping into motherhood, navigating a new job, or rediscovering who you are. If you're feeling a bit lost or anxious in the process, you don’t have to walk it alone. I help people move from worry and self-doubt toward steadiness, clarity, and confidence in who they’re becoming.

Have you experienced a stressful or traumatic experience that has left you feeling not like yourself? After these types of experiences, the most common thing people tell me is "I just wish I could go back to how it was before." You might be wrestling with painful memories, have difficulty connecting with others, and struggle to feel safe, both with the outside world and even yourself. These are all NORMAL reactions to difficult experiences but they do not have to be your forever. While we cannot undo the past, we can work to process and overcome these events in order to find and a path forward.

Life doesn't come with a roadmap, and sometimes the challenges we face can leave us feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure of our next steps. You may be looking for a space where you can be yourself, feel genuinely heard, and find support without judgment. I believe healing happens through connection, curiosity, and compassion. Together, we'll celebrate your strengths, work through life's challenges, and help you create a path forward that feels authentic, meaningful, and hopeful. My goal is for therapy to feel like a place where you can not only heal, but also grow, thrive, and rediscover what brings you joy.

Our areas of expertise include postpartum depression and anxiety, OCD, eating disorders, depression, anxiety, shame, and PTSD - including complex and developmental trauma.
Our clinicians bring specialized training in Brainspotting, EMDR, somatic therapy, and trauma-informed care, with a strong emphasis on decolonizing mental health and moving beyond pathologizing models of healing. Many of our therapists embody the "wounded healer" archetype, not as a concept, but as lived experience, bringing genuine depth and authenticity.

I help adults navigate relationships, life transitions, anxiety and grief with a warm
and collaborative approach. I also do a lot of work with moms-to-be, new mothers, and those who’ve just added a second child to their family. Therapy with me is warm and conversational, with a mix of CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - where we will restructure and reframe unhelpful or untrue thoughts that are holding you back), and practical goal-setting. We’ll explore what matters most to you - we will even laugh quite a bit. (Therapy doesn’t have to be heavy all the time!)

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I am originally from the UK where I worked with children and young adults in the foster care system who had experienced complex trauma, alongside supporting their careers. I now live in Colorado Springs and practice as a clinical social worker. My approach to therapy is person-centered and strength-based, recognizing each person's journey as unique and so adapting my style to work on the individual's need. I most commonly use DBT as a therapeutic tool, along with trauma-informed practice, positive psychology, mindfulness, art-based interventions, and family systems.

I am an experienced Art Therapist, artist, wife and mother. I experienced the loss of my oldest son at birth due to HELLP Syndrome in 2003. I understand this type of grief both personally and professionally. I also understand the issues that arise when you also struggle with fertility issues following a loss as well as TFMR. Becoming pregnant in the midst of these issues requires a mindfulness practice to stay in the present while paying attention to the past and being hopeful for the future. I work from a creative arts-based practice that focuses on your strengths. I work primarily in the areas of grief, loss and trauma.

Pregnancy, Prenatal, Postpartum Therapists
What are the most effective ways to address pregnancy, prenatal, and postpartum concerns?
The most effective way to address pregnancy, prenatal, and postpartum concerns is by finding a therapist who has prior experience helping other patients overcome the challenge being faced. For example, a marriage and family therapist may have experience helping couples adjust to their new relationship dynamic. An anxiety specialist may have experience helping with phobias or illness anxiety related to the child’s health. A depression specialist may have experience treating postpartum depression.
When should I seek treatment for prenatal or postpartum concerns?
Pregnancy and the postpartum period involve intense physical and mental changes; a degree of upset and instability is normal. However, if these changes impair daily functioning, it may be time to seek help. This distinction is pertinent for postpartum depression: A period of teariness, irritability, and distress is difficult but normal in the one to two weeks after childbirth (sometimes called the “baby blues.”) But if feelings of sadness and hopelessness persist beyond that period, the person should seek treatment.
How do I manage worries during pregnancy or the postnatal period?
A therapist can help patients develop the tools they need to manage anxieties during or after pregnancy. Cognitive behavioral therapy can help people identify and reframe harmful patterns of thought, and change their behaviors. Other techniques and skills can allow people to develop acceptance, psychological flexibility, self-compassion, communication skills, and more.
Are there specific medications for postpartum depression?
In 2019, the FDA approved the first medication designed to treat postpartum depression. The medication is called brexanolone and is delivered intravenously by a medical professional over the course of a few days. However, typical antidepressants, which are more accessible, can also treat postpartum depression. The disorder is often best treated through a combination of medication and therapy.
