Your life is full, the pressure is always on, and the responsibilities are never-ending. It feels like you have no choice but to just keep going, even though you're exhausted and on the edge of burnout. No one knows you’re struggling because you’ve learned to stay polished; always in performance mode. The constant hustle has left you depleted from the inside out. While you're a pro at figuring it all out on your own, you deserve support. Therapy is a great way to practice prioritizing yourself.

I specialize in working with people experiencing depression, anxiety, adjustment and life transitions, emerging adults, creative block, reproductive issues ( infertility, miscarriage /recurrent pregnancy loss), adoption and parenting.
My therapy approach is to first find out what the client is seeking from therapy, and if they have prior experiences with therapy or art therapy. Then we can set the course, and shape it to meet their needs. I give assignments in between sessions to help clients gain confidence getting where they want to be when they leave therapy. After all, the work of living is not done in a therapy office, so life skills need to be practiced and honed outside of therapy. My work is informed by a combination of cognitive behavioral, relational/feminist, client centered and psycho-dynamic therapy, but not limited by these frameworks.

We all have challenges in life and having a person whose only vested interest is in you can be infinitely helpful when figuring it all out. My clients are the driving force in therapy and it is their plan that is most important. I assist clients in identifying the areas of life that are working well to enhance other areas and begin to make changes to improve situations. By utilizing mindfulness strategies and challenging potentially distorted thinking patterns, clients become more at peace and satisfied in life.

Though I have a special interest in infertility and incest survivorship, I work with individuals and couples who struggle with any number of life challenges.
My practice focuses on women and couples. I also have a specialty in working with people whose infertility treatment has not succeeded. Many people feel quite lost when such treatment ends. This can be a very difficult period -- of emotional recovery, and decision-making about adoption vs. living without parenting.

All of us come to a fork in the road in life. You may feel there is no hope. You may feel alone and misunderstood. Maybe you have traveled this path before. You wonder if it is just you that has these problems. Whatever brings you here I am so glad you did not give up. Life does not have easy answers but with the right support and unwavering advocate in your corner it can be more manageable. I have been licensed and practicing for nearly 20 years. I am an LGBTQ affirming, anti-racist ally and trauma sensitive provider.

Infertility Therapists
How can infertility affect couples and their relationship?
Clients who are dealing with infertility may experience conflict and communication problems. It’s not unusual for shame, blame, and guilt to arise in cases of infertility, whether the source of the problem is one partner or both. This means that clients are upset and pulling away from their partner just when they need them the most. Some clients may find it difficult to spend time around friends and family who are pregnant. Friends and family can also make hurtful comments that increase tension during this time.

How does therapy for infertility issues work?
The therapist will begin by gathering information about the client or couple and make a treatment plan for their specific concerns. In addition to addressing common mental health issues, such as anxiety, depression, and trauma reactions or PTSD, therapists can help clients improve their decision-making and deal with stressors unique to infertility. Some examples include coping with the “two-week wait” before a pregnancy test, the distress associated with a failed attempt or miscarriage, and the shame and blame sometimes associated with reproductive concerns.

What type of therapy is best for infertility issues?
Many therapists offer psychotherapy for individuals and couples who are dealing with infertility issues. Some helpful therapeutic approaches include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which can aid clients in reframing negative thoughts about their situation. Expressive writing and art therapy can help clients process difficult feelings. Clients might also benefit from group therapy to experience support from others who are dealing with the same problems.

How long does therapy for infertility issues take?
There is no set length for therapy that addresses infertility or reproductive concerns. Some clients might find it helpful to continue therapy during their pregnancy to have healthy ways to cope with any associated stress, anxiety, depression, or trauma. Some clients who decide not to pursue fertility treatments might benefit from the support of a therapist. The duration of therapy varies depending on the individual client’s specific needs and goals.
