I specialize in perinatal mental health, supporting people through pregnancy, postpartum challenges, identity shifts, anxiety, and depression.
The therapy I offer invites exploration into how our layered life experiences shape the ways we relate to ourselves and others. In our work together, we’ll uncover the unconscious patterns that may be holding you back, while also identifying and strengthening the inner resources that support growth and change.

With over 15 years' experience, I am a certified Internal Family Systems therapist with specialty training in maternal mental health from Postpartum Support International.
You’re so tired. And you’re tired of saying you’re tired. The worries and to-do lists run in circles in your mind. You’re overwhelmed, wondering when things will get easier. And you may even blame yourself for how hard things are. You provide so much care to others, but you get lost in the shuffle. Your temper flares easily. So much has changed in your life, and you wonder if you will feel like yourself again. Care work is incredibly hard and so often invisible, especially with the lack of systemic supports. Self-preservation in the midst of that is even harder.

I provide tailored therapy for women and gender-expansive people navigating reproductive life transitions, including infertility, perinatal mental health, pregnancy loss, perimenopause, and menopause — with a focus on anxiety, overwhelm, and reclaiming a sense of self.
I draw on the evidenced based modality, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), because it meets women exactly where they are — not by trying to silence the fear or "fix" the anxiety, but by helping you unhook from the spiral of unhelpful thoughts, make peace with what's outside your control, and reconnect with what matters most to you.

Possible reasons why you want to start therapy: You want to learn more about yourself. You are feeling alone, misunderstood, stuck and you may or may not have people around you who support you but you still feel this way. You want to make a change or you're in the middle of a change (wanted or unwanted) and you need support. You are looking for an objective, skilled and compassionate opinion. You are in need of someone to point out your blind spots, with discretion. You feel unable to achieve your dreams or life goals no matter how hard you try. If any of these reasons resonate with you, I can help.

At the heart of my work is a belief in the healing power of being truly seen, known, and emotionally held by another. I believe all behavior serves a purpose. Even the most painful or confusing patterns often began as ways to cope with overwhelming circumstances. In therapy, we'll explore these parts of yourself, welcoming them into conscious awareness with curiosity and compassion. This often involves intentionally reflecting on past experiences and early relationships. When these emotions are safely confronted and processed, they begin to shift.

Do you always feel preoccupied about something? Do you overthink everything? Is it hard for you to make a decision because you are filled with doubt or you imagine every possible outcome? Are you often easily overwhelmed, finding it hard to shut off your brain at night or when you need to really focus on a task? Does one little thing going wrong ruin your whole day? Are your emotions getting in the way of you building the life you want? Maybe they're even preventing you from being present with your friends and family, leaving you feeling alone.

You’ve done all the "right" things but life still doesn't feel the way you want it to. From the outside, things look pretty good and others think you have it together, but the truth is you’re anxious and overwhelmed a lot of the time. You’re tired of just coping and ready to actually feel better. Whether you’re going through (or contemplating) a big life change, struggling in relationships, grieving the loss of a pet, feeling stuck, or have a sense that something from your past is holding you back, you just want things to feel different...and the surface level fixes aren’t cutting it.

The decision to begin therapy is rarely easy, but once you begin you may be surprised by the changes that unfold. Finding a therapist who helps you feel safe, supported, and challenged is central to this process.

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.
