With compassion, warmth, and curiosity, I will help you sort through the messiness of life. Many of my clients are individuals or couples navigating anxiety, relationship difficulties, health concerns, or life transitions. I have a special interest in working with women that are navigating infertility, pregnancy, and postpartum as well as couples riding the waves of early parenthood, finding themselves a bit lost within this exciting and sometimes overwhelming chapter of life that often brings a new identity, changed expectations, constant transition, and a lack of control (and, of course, sleep!).
You may find that your internal narrative is weighted with self-criticism. This is especially common in women's health, where critical messaging and unrealistic societal expectations are endless. I work to shift that voice towards compassion, slow down automatic thoughts, challenge them with new perspectives, and create space to make meaningful change.
I bring that same warmth to my work with couples, many of whom are navigating defensiveness, resentment, anxiety, and the "mental load", to name a few. Together we create specific language that fosters effective communication, allowing partners room to breathe and see each other's vulnerability with empathy and understanding.
