About My Clients

I help women with a range of issues including relationship difficulties, stress and mood issues, low self-esteem, work and life transitions, work-life balance, grief and loss, trauma recovery, and more. My practice also has a special commitment to helping women and their partners with the emotional and psychological issues related to reproductive health, including infertility, pregnancy and infant loss, postpartum mental health, birth trauma, NICU experiences, parenting concerns and more.

My Background and Approach

I strive to create a safe and supportive space for women and their partners to examine their life experiences, address their challenges, and make the changes they desire. I believe that all people are resilient and capable of working through pain and obstacles in order to live their best life. My integrative, holistic style is specifically tailored to meet each person’s unique needs and goals. I draw upon various evidence-based modalities, including cognitive behavioral therapy (cbt), mindfulness, positive psychology, humanistic-existential theories, EMDR, and solution-focused therapy. In my work with individuals, couples and groups, I am dedicated to providing an atmosphere of warmth, genuineness, acceptance and respect for each person in order to encourage growth and change. I believe in building upon strengths, and working collaboratively to understand your unique concerns. During sessions, I am active, engaged, and focused on helping you make the changes you desire.
