I work with individuals experiencing a wide range of needs - depression, anxiety, attachment issues, grief and loss, questions of identity, family conflict, relationship dynamics, and more. Additionally, I specifically work with women traveling through pre/postpartum, infertility, pre/post adoption, fostering, and parenting. My goal has always been to kindly and competently walk with individuals and families along the arduous path between the beautiful, the terrible and the call forward – sometimes existing so close one can’t feel them separately.

I also work with many clients struggling with relationship issues, anxiety, depression, and postpartum issues.
My primary job as a therapist is to learn your unique story so that I can understand your views and lived experiences. I believe all behavior makes sense in context, and by working together, we can both gain awarenesses and insights as to why you may be struggling. After uncovering the "why", we will work together to find healing, growth, and more adaptive coping skills. I am a firm believer in the mind-body connection and believe that our lifestyle and environment have a huge impact on our mental health. These beliefs inform my work as a therapist.

I believe we're shaped by biological (heredity, diet, hormones), psychosocial (peers, family, job stress), and psychological influences (thoughts, self-esteem, perfectionism). Addressing the mind-body interaction is critical. I guide and teach, helping clients learn new skills such as meditation and meridian tapping to handle life stresses.

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.
