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 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. I aim to create a safe, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space where you can reflect, experiment, and deepen your understanding of who you are. I especially enjoy working with individuals who are curious about themselves and are seeking greater clarity, confidence, and authenticity in their lives.

I also have advanced training in treating pregnant and postpartum women, having completed courses in Perinatal Mental Health Psychotherapy and Perinatal Mood Disorders.
I often hear, "But other people have it worse," in an attempt to downplay our struggles and make things feel more manageable. While this mindset may be helpful at times, it also minimizes the importance of our current situation and dismisses our feelings. Whatever you are facing, if it's important to you it's also important to me. As a clinician with experience in multiple therapeutic settings, I have treated panic disorders, anxiety, depression, and trauma. I also have a special spot in my heart for grief and loss and have treated those struggling with prolonged grief.

You may appear capable and composed on the outside, yet feel anxious, overwhelmed, or emotionally drained inside. Many of my clients are thoughtful adults who are used to managing on their own, but feel stuck, disconnected, or weighed down by experiences or patterns that have become harder to carry, even when things “should” be fine.

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.
