Whether you're new to therapy or continuing your journey, congratulations on finding yourself here ready to start. You may be a mom feeling overwhelmed by the mental & emotional load of motherhood, or an adult navigating anxiety, life transitions, or emotional exhaustion. You might be a teen navigating a stressful time, a couple needing support, or simply in a season where everything feels like too much. You’re looking for a space to better understand your emotions, gain clarity, and feel more grounded and confident. I commend you for being brave enough to take these steps and for valuing your emotional health enough to do the work.
Supporting mothers and perinatal mental health is a passion and core focus of my work. I also help adults, teens, couples, and families navigate anxiety, life transitions, and relationship challenges. I help clients recognize patterns, process experiences, regulate emotions, and build practical skills to manage overwhelm in an empowering, supportive way.
Finding the right therapist is one of the most important parts of the therapeutic process, and reaching out takes courage. Therapy doesn’t have to feel intimidating or painful—it can be grounding, validating, and real. If you’re ready for supportive care that honors your growth, I’d be honored to walk alongside you on your journey to initiate healing!

Groups
The Happy Mama
The Happy Mama Group is a social & support group for all mamas to be able to converse & relate what it means to be a mommy! New mamas, experienced mamas, expecting mamas, step-mamas, single mamas, working mamas: all mamas are encouraged to join to foster & develop new friendships with women who know exactly what it's like balancing life as a woman, partner, mommy, professional! It's so easy to get lost in motherhood; it's important to have a supportive tribe who knows exactly what it's like! It is my hope that through this group women can find their tribe to lean on!
