You never expected this journey to feel this way. The path to becoming a mother or finally settling into the role of raising your child looks so different than you imagined. Negative experiences from the past might be so suffocating it feels like you’ll never break free. The demands and pressure on you keep adding up and you’re trying to balance it at all, but your well-being always ends up on the back burner. You're putting on a brave face for everyone, but inside, you're feeling broken. Honestly, you just wish you could start feeling better or finally get what you've you've been craving for so long.
As a seasoned psychologist, I have extensive experience in helping women, mothers, and those who have experienced trauma find real, lasting change in their lives. I’m known for being someone who is easy to connect with and truly “gets it.”
With a belief in the power of tapping into your inherent value and inner strength, I use approaches that are tailored to you specifically so you can heal from your pain and ultimately become the version of yourself you’ve been wanting. Everyone deserves a space that is held just for them. Reach out for a free consult call or to schedule an intake.

I use an integrative therapy approach in my practice. Sometimes talk therapy is not enough. With Brainspotting, a brain-body therapy, you can neutralize negative feelings and embrace the calm, clarity, and relief on the other side. I offer both in-person and online brainspotting intensives for adults and women for rapid and deep results.
