Hello!
I have advanced training and expertise in perinatal mental health and I value working with men and women across all stages of fertility journeys. The conception, prenatal, pregnancy and postpartum time period can be full of changes and challenges.
I also have a soft spot for fathers and partners navigating infertility, pregnancy, or parenting alongside the mother. I understand the pre- and postpartum season of one’s life can be filled with loss, grief, joy, and great change.

Hello and welcome! If you're looking for a therapist for yourself or your child, I can help. Although many people are able to express exactly what is causing them stress (or why), it's also common to struggle with putting it into words. You might feel anxious or depressed more days than not. Clients who seek me out often experience overwhelming emotions but might also feel low and unmotivated, or even detached. If you're a parent, you might be concerned about your child but feel unsure how to help them. I'd like to partner with you on how to make things better for you!

Though I consider myself a general practitioner, I have a particular passion for working with clients who suffer from the effects of trauma and incorporating a variety of therapeutic interventions to alleviate their trauma-related symptoms, including Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR). I am trained in EMDR and specialize in Recent Event Protocol EMDR. This technique is conducted when an individual experiences a trauma within 90 days or less of the event to ensure the incident is NOT stored in the brain's memory as a traumatic event, thus causing trauma symptoms and present or future false negative beliefs of oneself.
