Are you feeling overwhelmed by scary or disturbing intrusive thoughts, anxiety, or past trauma—especially during pregnancy or postpartum? I specialize in perinatal mental health, OCD, PTSD, grief, and spiritual concerns like religious trauma, doubt, or shame. Many clients I work with are facing more than one of these struggles at once. If you’re exhausted from trying to "hold it all together" while struggling inside, therapy can help. With over 16 years of experience, I offer a safe, expert, and supportive space where you can find relief, clarity, and healing. You don’t have to carry this alone. There is hope.
I'm a survivor of infertility, pregnancy loss, and traumatic birth and find it fulfilling to help others through these struggles. I'm a certified Perinatal Mental Health Provider and have advanced training for this, infertility, and ART (IVF, IUI, etc). I am trained in EMDR, often used with trauma. I am also trained in ERP, the gold standard for OCD.
You deserve a space where your story is understood and your peace is reclaimed. Whether we are processing birth trauma or navigating the intersection of OCD and parenting, I am here to help you move from surviving to thriving. You’ve been strong long enough. Please reach out via email or my website to schedule a complimentary consultation call.
