Currently accepting new clients in Indiana and Michigan. My goal as a therapist is to be a safe landing spot for your biggest emotions, fears, traumas, and anxieties. Whatever your reason for starting therapy, I will work alongside you to help you understand yourself and find better ways to manage the stressors that have become unmanageable. You set the destination, and I will help get you there.
I work primarily with mothers in the prenatal and postpartum stages who are experiencing the effects of depression, anxiety, and birth trauma. I specialize in EMDR and CBT to target those negative beliefs and challenging experiences that can profoundly impact daily functioning and happiness as a new parent.
I believe in the intrinsic capacity of the self to heal, and my goal as your therapist is to partner with you to help you on this journey toward wholeness. Many moms (really good moms!) have been exactly where you are right now. It is normal to doubt yourself or miss the "old you." I will help you find your own path as a mother, free from uncertainty.

Postpartum depression can feel like a constant cloud of sadness and anxiety that you can't shake. Our time together will be spent finding ways to challenge your negative thought patterns and help you to find joy in the transition to parenthood. Most of my clients feel a gradual increase in their confidence as a parent and learn many new coping skills to help them manage the hard moments.

I use a strengths-based and solution-focused approach with new parents, because identifying your innate strengths is an important part of helping you to own your amazing qualities. I love using cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and EMDR to help clients restructure their thoughts in ways that increase their happiness and resiliency as parents.
