I specialize in treating women with depression and anxiety related to life altering conditions such as:
Infertility
, Perinatal Mood Disorders, Loss, Life transitions and Medical challenges.
Becoming a mother is expected to be one of the best times of a woman's life, so when we have difficulty conceiving or feel down when we are pregnant or postpartum, we feel alone and guilty. Know that you are not alone and you can get through
Infertility
and recover from maternal mental health issues. Dealing with chronic medical challenges,
Infertility
or pregnancy loss can leave you feeling drained emotionally, physically and financially. My goal at Bloom Psychotherapy Center is to help women grow through these difficult periods, develop the tools to heal and bloom into the Best version of themselves!

I have experience with trauma-related disorders, attachment, parenting,
infertility
, relationships (family, marriage, dating, polyamory, ethical non-monogamy, infidelity, etc.
There are many factors that contribute to the development of our mental health symptoms, and once they are present, shifting them out of our daily reality is difficult to do alone. The therapeutic methods I use create movement as we shift through the complex layers of mental health symptoms and address the underlying issues. The most rewarding experience for me as a therapist is seeing my clients get better, reduce or eliminate negative symptoms, and reach their goals of building the lives they truly desire.

Infertility Therapists
How can infertility affect couples and their relationship?
Clients who are dealing with infertility may experience conflict and communication problems. It’s not unusual for shame, blame, and guilt to arise in cases of infertility, whether the source of the problem is one partner or both. This means that clients are upset and pulling away from their partner just when they need them the most. Some clients may find it difficult to spend time around friends and family who are pregnant. Friends and family can also make hurtful comments that increase tension during this time.
How does therapy for infertility issues work?
The therapist will begin by gathering information about the client or couple and make a treatment plan for their specific concerns. In addition to addressing common mental health issues, such as anxiety, depression, and trauma reactions or PTSD, therapists can help clients improve their decision-making and deal with stressors unique to infertility. Some examples include coping with the “two-week wait” before a pregnancy test, the distress associated with a failed attempt or miscarriage, and the shame and blame sometimes associated with reproductive concerns.
What type of therapy is best for infertility issues?
Many therapists offer psychotherapy for individuals and couples who are dealing with infertility issues. Some helpful therapeutic approaches include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which can aid clients in reframing negative thoughts about their situation. Expressive writing and art therapy can help clients process difficult feelings. Clients might also benefit from group therapy to experience support from others who are dealing with the same problems.
How long does therapy for infertility issues take?
There is no set length for therapy that addresses infertility or reproductive concerns. Some clients might find it helpful to continue therapy during their pregnancy to have healthy ways to cope with any associated stress, anxiety, depression, or trauma. Some clients who decide not to pursue fertility treatments might benefit from the support of a therapist. The duration of therapy varies depending on the individual client’s specific needs and goals.
