Welcome to your journey toward finding the right counselor for you! Therapy is one of the greatest gifts you can give yourself. Life is full of transitions—some joyful, some heartbreaking—but all can bring stress and uncertainty. It’s easy to feel overwhelmed or stuck in thought spirals. Together, we’ll navigate these emotions and help you find calm in the chaos.
At Forward Wellness, we specialize in maternal mental health, pregnancy loss, and traumatic or challenging childbirth experiences. We also support new parents—moms and dads alike—as they adjust to their evolving identities and relationships.
Beyond perinatal care, our clinicians have expertise in grief and loss, neurodivergence (including autism in women AFAB individuals), trauma, anxiety, and relationships. We also provide support for healthcare providers and caregivers facing burnout.
Finding the right therapist can feel like a daunting task. Visit our webpage to learn more, or send us a message through the contact form. While Jodie (pictured) may not always have availability, our compassionate team is here and ready to support you today!
