My Background and Approach
The journey to motherhood is transformational, and overwhelming for all women as they navigate changes in pregnancy and postpartum.

I will help you: - Learn new strategies to calm your nervous system and feel more like yourself again - Kick perfectionism and mom-guilt to the curb - Set healthy boundaries that will support you and your growing family - Heal from any unresolved traumas related to your family-building journey so you can prepare for a future pregnancy, birth, and postpartum experience - Find self-compassion for what you have been through and where you are today - Step into a more confident version of yourself so that you can be the mother you are longing to be I am a Certified Perinatal Mental Health therapist (PMH-C), and utilize a variety of evidence-based and trauma-informed therapies (including EMDR, EFT, CBT, mind-body therapies) with a holistic approach.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
My lived experience with a challenging transition to motherhood fuels my passion to hold space and empower other women as they navigate these difficult and transformative seasons. In the therapy room, I show up authentically as myself. I don't pretend to have it all together, as I am in the thick of it myself while parenting two toddlers, juggling work and family life, and being a cycle-breaker of generational patterns myself. The values that matter most to me as your therapist are: ☀ authenticity (I will never pretend these experiences are not messy. I will keep it real), ☀ empowerment (There's so much out of your control, but I will help you tune back into what you can control), ☀ collaboration (YOU are the expert. I am here to walk with you). Because I feel strongly that women and families deserve specialized support, I prioritize continued growth as a therapist, and pursue advanced trainings and professional consultation to support the work I love to do.
