I am currently available for both virtual and in-person sessions.
As a new mom, I found myself saying “WTF” more times than I could count. Motherhood is deeply transformative, and often immensely overwhelming at the same time. From pregnancy to postpartum and beyond, the journey of becoming a mom reshapes who we are. It’s beautiful, messy, and often nothing like we expected. Whether you’re navigating identity shifts, anxiety, depression, guilt, or the daily weight of motherhood, you deserve to find joy in the mother you are becoming.

You carry a lot of responsibility, and most people don’t see how heavy it feels. On the outside, you manage. Inside, anxiety hums, your body feels tense or in pain, and exhaustion lingers. Sleep is disrupted, and you feel on edge and more reactive than you want to be. Chronic stress, burnout, or chronic illness can make symptoms feel unpredictable and even frightening. You may find yourself wondering, “Will I ever feel better?” You don’t want to keep surviving your days. You want relief, steadiness, and a sense that things can shift.

Many present-day struggles began as ways of coping with earlier relational trauma. Anxiety, relationship conflict, people-pleasing, overwhelm, or feeling “stuck” often make sense when we see where they began. While these patterns once protected you, they may no longer serve you. Therapy offers space to slow down with curiosity and compassion. Together, we can notice when the past is shaping the present and develop new ways of responding that feel grounded, intentional, and alive. I work with children, teens, and adults — individuals, couples, and families — seeking deeper understanding, more authentic connection, and lasting change.

Do you feel overwhelmed in your own mind, like you’re constantly overthinking, on edge, or just trying to get through the day?
Maybe you’re managing ADHD, anxiety, depression, or the weight of past experiences… and it’s starting to affect your relationships, your work, or how you feel about yourself. You might look like you’re holding it together on the outside, but inside it feels exhausting.

FAQ - About In Person Therapy
What are the benefits of in-person therapy?
In-person therapy offers several benefits that some people find highly valuable for their mental health treatment. Being present in the same room as your therapist can create a stronger sense of connection and allow for more nuanced communication through body language. Some people may also find it easier to focus in therapy when they are in a dedicated space and away from potential distractions related to home or work; attending an in-person session provides a clear boundary between therapy time and the rest of your life. For certain therapeutic approaches, such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), exposure therapy, or somatic therapy, being in person may be particularly important, as these therapies benefit from the therapist being able to observe and respond to a client’s physical cues effectively. Additionally, some individuals simply feel more comfortable discussing sensitive or painful topics when they are face-to-face with their therapist rather than on a screen.
When should I choose in-person therapy over online therapy?
In-person therapy may be a better choice when you need a structured therapeutic environment separate from your daily life, when you find it difficult to focus or feel comfortable in an online setting, or when privacy at home is a concern. It may also be more appropriate if you are dealing with severe mental health symptoms that require close monitoring or if your therapy involves approaches that rely heavily on observing physical cues. On the other hand, if convenience, scheduling flexibility, or access to specialists outside your immediate area are priorities, online therapy may be a better fit. Many therapists offer both options, so you can also discuss with a provider which format might work best for your specific situation.
How do I find an in-person therapist?
You can use Psychology Today's therapist directory to find an in-person therapist in your area. You can search by location, insurance accepted, specialty areas, therapeutic approaches, and other criteria to narrow down providers who meet your needs. Each therapist profile includes information about their credentials, areas of expertise, and whether they offer in-person sessions. Once you have identified potential therapists, you can contact them directly through the directory to schedule an initial consultation and determine whether they are a good fit before committing to ongoing treatment. When reaching out, it can be helpful to confirm their availability for in-person appointments, their office location, and whether they accept your insurance.
