Family can be a source of joy and strength but can also be chaotic and overwhelming at times. I know that life transitions and big events can be challenging for individuals and that sometimes having an outside resource to talk to can be helpful. If you are struggling to start a family, dealing with pregnancy/postpartum related mental health concerns, pursuing kinship care/foster care/adoption, or working to overcome a traumatic experience, I would love to connect and see if I can assist you in reaching your goals.

I specialize in supporting women during periods of personal and professional change- with a special focus on new and expecting mothers. The journey into motherhood is a period of profound change. Changes during and following pregnancy are often multi-layered, occur across many areas of daily life, and are accompanied by a range of emotions. From identity transitions, physical and emotional changes, relationships and family dynamics, employment, health and safety, etc. I provide informed care and support that attends to these many areas of change. Know that you are not alone and you do not need to navigate this space by yourself.

As a therapist, my experience is quite diverse and comprehensive. I have worked with individuals within many environments such as Treatment Centers, Schools (K-12), and on Military bases.

I know from working with clients, they want peace of mind, to experience healthy relationships, feel fulfilled in who they are and lead lives of impact. Yet, sometimes we wonder after experiencing ongoing circumstances of disappointment and undue stress, where that woman went or how to find her again...Day to day reality, especially through significant times of change, can be overwhelming, resulting in feeling weighed down by much to do’s and a drive to keep performing.

Life in general, can be challenging. I believe in the healing power of telling your story in a judgement-free environment where you feel safe. Research consistently shows it is the quality of the therapeutic relationship, more than any other factor including the method of therapy, predicting the clients’ ability to use therapy to help themselves and make positive life changes. Therapy does not always solve the problems brought to it, but the best chance for success is when there is a strong therapeutic relationship. To me, the critical foundation of our counseling relationship is a partnership based on mutual respect and honesty.
