Parenthood is one of THE most transformative times of life. Being a parent is the biggest love you've ever known and fills you up. Yet, it's exhausting and harder than you thought! Mama - your mind races when you try to rest, you worry and are irritable with your partner and little ones. And Dads - you want to support your partner, but feel isolated, lonely and it never feels like enough. You might feel intense pressure to be a great parent and provide a different experience than you had. All of this normal but can keep you in your head when you want to be present and connected to your little one(s).
I help moms, dads and expecting parents with anxiety, depression, feelings of overwhelm and the transition to parenthood. I use a depth oriented model combined with practical skills and strategies to help you meet your goals. As a parent myself of TWINS and 15 years in this field, I have the compassion, experience and skills to help.
Coming to therapy is an investment in yourself. I will be direct, transparent and supportive with a sense of humor that allows us to gently work through complex emotions, experiences and challenges. Book a free consult to see if we could be the great fit that helps you reach your goals.

I work with parents who have experienced developmental trauma and have been diagnosed with Complex PTSD. I use the NeuroAffective Relational Model (NARM) to treat symptoms of anxiety and depression, as well as help clients improve relationships with their partners and their children. Most clients describe NARM as a new kind of therapy that is deeply healing.

In your sessions, we will identify what you most want for yourself and what is getting in the way of making that a reality. I help parents connect to their best selves both for their families and for themselves. You will leave sessions seeing new perspectives, better understanding themselves, feeling confident and more in control of your life.
