I believe that the power of a positive therapeutic relationship can be a game-changer for anyone looking to improve their mental health. Just like exercising your body helps to strengthen your body, exercising your brain strengthens your brain. When we’re used to thinking negatively, negativity is the easiest path for our thoughts to travel. Anxiety can oftentimes stem from unhelpful thought patterns. When you’re able to untwist your thinking and reveal the truth underneath the anxiety, you are able to gain new perspective on life and its challenges.

I am a psychologist licensed in 42 states, who specializes in trauma, transitions, and making decisions about whether to become a parent. My clients are usually people who have tried to push through past trauma, but it keeps coming back up, or people who are in a place of transition, trying to make decisions about where to go from here. Therapy with me involves deep conversations about who you are and what is meaningful to you. As someone who has traveled and lived in multiple countries, I thrive in discussions about identity and background. I welcome all parts of you including your identities, background, values, and dreams.

I have additional certification in couple's counseling and infertility counseling.
The house goes quiet and your mind start racing. You’re tossing and turning over yesterday’s mistakes or tomorrow’s fears, and some nights, the anxiety is just a nameless buzz that won't let you settle. You're used to being the person with all the answers, but now you're noticing people (your partner, kids, co-workers) are hesitant to approach you. It’s exhausting to live that way, knowing deep down that your life has become more about surviving than actually enjoying the things that matter most.

I also support those experiencing infertility and loss.
Parenthood not going how you thought it would? Maybe you’ve “just relaxed” for over a year now and you’re still not pregnant. Or perhaps your journey has been halted by an unexpected loss. Everyone is pregnant around you and you’ve just been invited to another baby shower. Entering parenthood rarely goes as planned. We are fed this narrative that we will get pregnant, have the delivery of our choosing and instantly bond with our baby. We answer endless questions about our infant’s sleep habits and post our monthly baby pictures. In reality, we haven’t brushed our teeth in three days and want to rage every time our partner speaks.

Infertility Therapists
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.
