These values are woven into my work as a psychologist.

I have particular interest in perinatal experiences, perimenopause, and life transitions.
As a psychotherapist with a background in physical therapy, my approach to healing is one that bears witness to the inseparability of the mind, body and lived experience within the world around us.

I work with clients from all backgrounds, creating space for each person’s singular story and identity. Many of those I support come from immigrant and/or underrepresented communities and are navigating the “bicultural condition” — the experience of belonging to multiple cultures while also feeling like an outsider in each. This experience often shapes the lives of immigrants, refugees, children of immigrants, and others whose identities have been influenced by cultural, linguistic and geopolitical events. These challenges can manifest as grief, trauma, anger, anxiety, relational difficulties and other forms of emotional distress.

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.
