You may be grieving the loss of your baby, struggling to recognize yourself in early parenthood, or feeling pressure to experience this time differently than you do. It can feel heavy, lonely, and hard to know where to begin. Let's start together right here. My approach is warm and collaborative, and there is room for everything weighing on your heart and mind. Together we will witness, acknowledge, and integrate your experiences into the larger story of who you are. This work is personal to me. My own experiences with pregnancy loss and postpartum mental health inform the care I bring to this space.
I specialize in supporting women and couples through miscarriage, stillbirth, fertility challenges, postpartum struggles, and the identity shifts of parenthood — alongside anxiety, codependency, family trauma, and body image. Using a warm, relational, mindfulness-based approach, I help you reconnect with your needs, intuition, and sense of worth.
I know how hard it can be to reach out, especially when you're in the middle of grief, exhaustion, or uncertainty. You don't need to have the right words or know exactly what you need. Wherever you are in this, there is room for it here. I would be honored to work with you.

I work with women and couples navigating pregnancy loss, fertility challenges, postpartum struggles, and the identity shifts of parenthood — as well as anxiety, codependency, and family trauma. In our early sessions we'll get to know your story and untangle what brought you here. Over time, most clients feel less alone and more connected to their own needs and sense of self.
