I believe that focusing on maternal mental health is the key to unlocking a more dynamic future; this is why my primary focus is women of child rearing ages. I also understand the importance of establishing healthy maternal-infant attachments and supported and nurtured youth, which is why I will also provide services for parents, children, and teens.
I offer a more tailored approach to therapy that incorporates health education and coaching strategies aimed at helping you improve not only your emotional wellbeing, but your overall quality of life.
Becoming a parent is hard and many women feel unprepared for the changes that occur as they navigate pregnancy, loss, and birthing challenges. Whether planning a family, experiencing motherhood, or grappling with reproductive challenges, I am happy to meet you where you are and help you navigate your unique needs.

I work primarily with women struggling to manage daily life stressors with a strong focus on supporting maternal mental health and parenting. I also work with children and youth. You can expect treatment to involve not only the use of therapeutic approaches to reduce symptoms of emotional distress, but also health education to increase knowledge of systems and improve long term health outcomes.
