Are you feeling anxious? Are you overwhelmed & overstimulated? Are you saying things like "I just don't feel like myself" and feel like this isn't how things should be? Every step of the journey through fertility/infertility, pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period can sometimes feel like an uphill battle no one prepared you for. In a time where others expect you to feel bliss, it is frustrating when you feel sadness, hopelessness, and fear instead. You don't have to suffer with anxiety, depression, & your scary thoughts alone. You are not your thoughts, and your feelings are valid.

I am a licensed clinical social worker and have been in practice for 25 years. I work with adolescents and adults doing individual as well as family and couple therapy. I use different modalities of treatment but mainly focus on cognitive behavioral therapy which teaches people how to identify the connection between their thoughts, feelings and behaviors as a way of making changes in their lives. I believe people who are motivated to change are capable of doing so given the right tools.
