I support individuals navigating perinatal mental health challenges ( pregnancy and postpartum), eating disorders/disordered eating, body image, trauma, athletes, anxiety, depression, a life transition or some overlap of these struggles.
Maybe you have always been the one to "have it all together" but lately you've been feeling overwhelmed, self-critical, or just not like yourself? Together, we will make sense of how you feel, what you have experienced and rebuild trust in yourself and resilience for the future. I believe we all need to feel seen and connected to others and ourselves to be truly fulfilled. As you gain a deeper understanding of yourself, you will be able to make meaningful and lasting changes in your life. I specialize in supporting high-achieving individuals who are used to "doing it all" and struggle to slow down and prioritize themselves.

My ideal client is someone facing trauma, identity questions, or major life transitions. They may feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected, but they’re seeking clarity, healing, and a sense of control. They want to understand themselves better and make choices that align with their values. Often impacted by outside pressures or past wounds, they’re looking for a safe, affirming space to explore, grow, and reconnect with their inner strength. They know change is hard but possible and are ready to begin that journey.

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.
