I work with women and teenagers (15+) who are navigating the complex landscape of trauma, grief, loss, dissociation, shame. Trauma tends to leave us feeling cut off from our bodies, from our sense of safety, from parts of who we are. Many people come to me carrying fear of their own inner world. Within the depths, what can feel like endings or deaths of old selves, there is space for rebirth: compassion, purpose, and a deeper sense of connection. My role is to serve as a mirror, reflecting your own inner knowing back to you, for you to find safety in trusting it again.

We navigate your anxiety, stress, trauma, life transitions (including the postpartum and peri-menopause period).
You're good at holding it all together, showing up, and keeping going. But privately, you're exhausted, quietly falling apart in ways you haven't told anyone. Maybe you've been through a life change, a loss, the transition into motherhood, or a chapter that took more out of you than expected. You feel overwhelmed, disconnected, like you don't recognise yourself anymore. You're tired of pretending you're fine. You might have thoughts that you're afraid make you a bad person. Knowing something and actually shifting it are two different things.

Pregnancy, Prenatal, Postpartum Counsellors
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 behavioural therapy can help people identify and reframe harmful patterns of thought, and change their behaviours. Other techniques and skills can allow people to develop acceptance, psychological flexibility, self-compassion, communication skills, and more.
