I truly believe every mother, every parent, deserves and needs a village. It is my hope to be a part of my client’s support system as they navigate all of the high’s and low’s of parenthood including pregnancy, couples therapy, postpartum depression and anxiety, and parental burnout. During my first pregnancy, I thought I had prepared well for motherhood – I read all the baby books, bought all the gear, and even took pregnancy classes. To say I was underestimating how life-altering this transition would be is putting it lightly. The learning curve is steep and it feels as though the stakes are quite high.
I am a relational cultural therapist. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is mutually growth-fostering and impactful for both the client and the clinician. My goal is that my clients feel empowered through our work together as they grow in understanding of who they are and the issues they are facing.
Whether you are a single parent, a couple expecting your first, or veteran parents with a growing family – there is space for you here. You will be seen. You will be believed. You will be supported.
