Therapists in Washington, DC

I am on a mission to help clients experience a less daunting and more rewarding path through parenthood. Having been through the fertility process and now motherhood, I know just how scary and difficult it can be. I specialize in helping new parents struggling with the challenges of postpartum life and clients struggling with the uncertainties of fertility and perinatal loss. I wish I had someone there for me who understood all that this experience brings up and I hope to be that empathic support for my clients.

Asking for support can be a challenging and important way to honor yourself and your needs. Let’s build on that courage, curiosity for change and motivation. For many people, trauma, anxiety and/or depression can impede connecting and living fully. Experiences of loneliness, burnout and hopelessness can be overpowering. I believe change is possible and trust - with your therapist, with yourself and your loved ones - can be a key part of healing. I want therapy to be a space where you can express yourself and feel empowered and grounded. We can balance between time to use coping skills and space for reflection or exploration.

As most people enter therapy during a time of heightened discomfort, I also strive to quickly identify areas of concern, develop an approach that feels comfortable, and help you find greater fulfillment in your life.

Our mind supports us in so many ways. But from time to time our mind needs support just like the rest of our body. Events in our life may impact our mind.

Or it could be the day to day of witnessing sadness in the news. Regardless of the reason, your mind deserves the same care as the rest of your body. My specialties include trauma, grief, anxiety, and health conditions (including fertility journeys and perinatal care).
