Infertility Therapists in Edina, MN

I provide individual, couple, and family therapy services, with a focus on perinatal and maternal mental health and relational dynamics in parenting and family life.

*** NOT ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS AT THIS TIME*** My role as a therapist is to help clients develop the coping strategies to cope effectively with challenges they are facing, and explore feelings, beliefs, thoughts, and events in a supportive way. I treat women and men experiencing depression, anxiety, adjustment disorders, life and career transitions, relationship issues, perinatal mood disorders, infertility , menopause, co-dependency, and more.

Accepting new clients May 2023. Do you struggle with feeling overwhelmed or stuck in life? Do you feel lost, uncertain, or worry you’re not good enough? Maybe you’re wondering why you aren’t quite feeling like yourself. Starting therapy takes courage, and can feel both exciting and nerve-wracking. I am here to support you throughout your journey. I strive to create a warm, non-judgmental, and safe space for individuals to explore areas of concern, build awareness, and uncover maladaptive patterns that impede on living a meaningful life.

I am a licensed independent clinical social worker with more than 10 years of experience providing psychotherapy to adults across the lifespan facing a wide variety of mental health concerns or issues, including mood disorders such as depression and bipolar disorder, anxiety disorders, trauma, and stage of life transitions.

I have over thirty years of experience helping people deal with life's challenges and changes. My personal approach to helping people is caring, supportive, solution-oriented and tailored to their individual needs and situations. I emphasize a positive approach to change based on a person's strengths,individual needs and resources. I have extensive experience dealing with stress, grief and loss, relationship issues, couple counseling, substance abuse, depression and anxiety and navigating life's transitions.

Therapy is a process of investigation and change, looking deeply at what works and what doesn't work. While some answers may lie in the past, you and I will work together to understand your life, relationships, and desire for change as they are right now. Change begins the moment you recognize the need for it. I have the skills, compassion, and desire to help you explore new possibilities and practice the change you want. Examples of issues I have worked with include depression and anxiety, infertility , life transitions, relationship difficulties, parenting, and family of origin and attachment issues.

Helping you is my job and I love my job. Let's do this.

Are you overwhelmed with motherhood? Maybe you've only started the journey to motherhood and are facing infertility , or are pregnant or postpartum. Perhaps you have small kids and are still wondering when you'll feel like yourself again. You aren't sure if your feelings are "normal", and feel alone and isolated. You might expect too much of yourself, and then struggle with guilt or shame when those expectations are not met. Motherhood and parenting are hard, though this reality is not often normalized. Let's work together to process your unique experience of becoming a mom, improve your confidence, and find more joy in motherhood.

My personal philosophy and professional approach to therapy is based on the belief that when therapeutic objectives are developed collaboratively between the client and therapist, there will be greater productivity and ultimate success of the treatment. The methodologies and theoretical applications that I use are a conglomerate of tools based on extensive academic training in health psychology, which includes the scientific study of the bio-chemical and neuro-physiological processes of the human brain & body and its effect on emotions, thoughts, perception and behavior; and furthermore incorporates the use of cognitive-behavioral, psycho-analytical, object relations, multi-cultural and humanistic perspectives.

Licensed and serving clients in both Minnesota and Wisconsin, my focus in therapy is to: 1) assist clients to clearly identify the root causes of the challenges and difficulties they are facing; 2) ensure client safety and stability, and; 3) work with each client to identify solutions which they feel will best address and resolve their unique life situations. I do not use a one-size-fits-all, or cookie-cutter approach. I work relationally and collaboratively, helping each individual hold themselves accountable for gaining the skills they need to successfully navigate their own life journey with all of its challenges and successes.
