If you’re like most women, you just want to feel supported. Are you having trouble sleeping because your mind won’t shut off? Are feelings of sadness, depression, irritability or reactiveness with those around you starting to affect your everyday? Are you anxious, panicky, having intrusive thoughts? You are the glue holding your family together, and it can feel like the weight of the world is on your shoulders. Some days, you feel like you can’t even BREATHE. You've sacrificed so much of yourself trying to be strong for everyone else. Are you trying to conceive/pregnant/
postpartum
/in the depths of motherhood?

Throughout my clinical experience, I've developed a real passion for working with young women, women, and fellow therapists. I tend to work best with those who have experienced trauma, grief & loss,
pregnancy
& fertility issues, and those in the healing/helping professions. Each person's narrative is so unique and important, and I consider it a great privilege to help folks shift their narratives from ones of struggle & hurt to ones of strength & growth.

I have training and experience working with trauma, anxiety, depression, couples (including non-monogamy), families, children and teens, substance use, mood disorders, co-occurring disorders, grief,
perinatal
mood and anxiety disorders (including infertility and
miscarriage
) and life transitions.
My goal as a therapist is to help others learn about and understand their issues in a safe and open environment. Seeking out help can be scary and stressful, and my hope is to make people feel comfortable addressing their concerns without feeling judged. Therapy is a unique and personal experience, and I use various interventions to match each person’s needs and goals. I use a mixture of therapeutic techniques to help individuals identify the issues they would like to focus on and to develop goals. I believe goal setting and providing tools to cope are imperative to success in therapy.

All of us have issues or experiences that can be difficult to manage at times. I work with you to help you find solutions that improve your quality of life. If you have suffered trauma, this means finding some understanding of the trauma and resolving lingering effects. Parents get help in parent management techniques and learn behavior management. For those with addictions, this means working to understand the cause of the addiction. For the elderly, this means completing a life review and understanding the current situation.

I enjoy working with individuals of different ages, ethnicity, in need of individual, couples or family sessions. I believe that life is a journey, which at times, can be very challenging. Sometimes we find ourselves at a crossroads, trying to decide our direction. Staying on familiar paths can be easier yet repetitive and stagnant. Growth means change and following new paths, though unfamiliar and with unseen risks. Therapy can help one believe in themselves and try new paths, with the therapist lighting the way.

Pregnancy, Prenatal, Postpartum Therapists
What are the most effective ways to address pregnancy, prenatal, and postpartum concerns?
The most effective way to address pregnancy, prenatal, and postpartum concerns is by finding a therapist who has prior experience helping other patients overcome the challenge being faced. For example, a marriage and family therapist may have experience helping couples adjust to their new relationship dynamic. An anxiety specialist may have experience helping with phobias or illness anxiety related to the child’s health. A depression specialist may have experience treating postpartum depression.
When should I seek treatment for prenatal or postpartum concerns?
Pregnancy and the postpartum period involve intense physical and mental changes; a degree of upset and instability is normal. However, if these changes impair daily functioning, it may be time to seek help. This distinction is pertinent for postpartum depression: A period of teariness, irritability, and distress is difficult but normal in the one to two weeks after childbirth (sometimes called the “baby blues.”) But if feelings of sadness and hopelessness persist beyond that period, the person should seek treatment.
How do I manage worries during pregnancy or the postnatal period?
A therapist can help patients develop the tools they need to manage anxieties during or after pregnancy. Cognitive behavioral therapy can help people identify and reframe harmful patterns of thought, and change their behaviors. Other techniques and skills can allow people to develop acceptance, psychological flexibility, self-compassion, communication skills, and more.
Are there specific medications for postpartum depression?
In 2019, the FDA approved the first medication designed to treat postpartum depression. The medication is called brexanolone and is delivered intravenously by a medical professional over the course of a few days. However, typical antidepressants, which are more accessible, can also treat postpartum depression. The disorder is often best treated through a combination of medication and therapy.
