It is such an honor to walk alongside my clients as they navigate the unique challenges they face - whether that be coping with difficult emotions, navigating infertility and/or loss, figuring out how to survive the early stages of parenting, or dealing with multi-cultural issues.
I primarily utilize a cognitive behavioral approach in my work. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) emphasizes the important role our thoughts play in how we feel and what we do. Sessions are collaborative, active, and seek to provide you with the tools you need to cope effectively with life's challenges.

The perinatal season and first responder field can be gratifying yet also introduce enormous changes in family dynamics and relationships. Whether a new parent or first responder, experiencing tragedy personally and or secondarily, expectations for a new mother or first responder can be high and too often dismissive of the unique stressors involved with making a new human or in the field. When unpredicted changes happen, people can feel alone, isolated, and afraid to give voice to their vulnerabilities. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with extensive experience in working with the perinatal and first responder population.

Relationship stress, grief, loss, life transitions, a lack of sync or control can all feel overwhelming. When our minds and bodies are out of balance, emotional reactions can intensify, create chronic stress, and lead to other chronic illnesses. Regardless of how great your support system is, it's not easy for friends and family to remain neutral or even patient when you need to talk about what's bothering you. It can cause more frustration and decrease connection. When there are complex or long term pains and struggles, collaborating with someone who IS neutral and focused on YOUR needs helps facilitate healing and lasting peace!

If you've ever felt like your body stopped feeling like home, you're not alone. Many of my clients come to therapy trying to find their way back to themselves after trauma, loss, shame, or a life that no longer fits. I work with individuals and partners exploring LGBTQ+ identities, kink, polyamory, and consensual non-monogamy, as well as those navigating postpartum depression, perinatal loss, or the lasting impact of religious trauma. Many are seeking deeper relationships with themselves and others, without leaving parts of themselves behind. Therapy can be a place to come home to yourself with more honesty, compassion, and clarity.

How can infertility affect couples and their relationship?
Clients who are dealing with infertility may experience conflict and communication problems. It’s not unusual for shame, blame, and guilt to arise in cases of infertility, whether the source of the problem is one partner or both. This means that clients are upset and pulling away from their partner just when they need them the most. Some clients may find it difficult to spend time around friends and family who are pregnant. Friends and family can also make hurtful comments that increase tension during this time.
How does therapy for infertility issues work?
The therapist will begin by gathering information about the client or couple and make a treatment plan for their specific concerns. In addition to addressing common mental health issues, such as anxiety, depression, and trauma reactions or PTSD, therapists can help clients improve their decision-making and deal with stressors unique to infertility. Some examples include coping with the “two-week wait” before a pregnancy test, the distress associated with a failed attempt or miscarriage, and the shame and blame sometimes associated with reproductive concerns.
What type of therapy is best for infertility issues?
Many therapists offer psychotherapy for individuals and couples who are dealing with infertility issues. Some helpful therapeutic approaches include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which can aid clients in reframing negative thoughts about their situation. Expressive writing and art therapy can help clients process difficult feelings. Clients might also benefit from group therapy to experience support from others who are dealing with the same problems.
How long does therapy for infertility issues take?
There is no set length for therapy that addresses infertility or reproductive concerns. Some clients might find it helpful to continue therapy during their pregnancy to have healthy ways to cope with any associated stress, anxiety, depression, or trauma. Some clients who decide not to pursue fertility treatments might benefit from the support of a therapist. The duration of therapy varies depending on the individual client’s specific needs and goals.
