The journey into parenthood is rarely simple. It can hold joy and anticipation alongside uncertainty, grief, fear, change, and profound transformation. Whether you are navigating infertility, receiving the news of a pregnancy, facing a challenging pregnancy, experiencing loss, preparing for birth, processing a difficult birth story, or adjusting to life postpartum, you deserve support that honors the full complexity of your experience.

​

I work with individuals and couples through every stage of the perinatal journey, providing a warm, compassionate space where your story can be explored with care and without judgment. I have extensive experience supporting clients through infertility, reproductive decisions, pregnancy and postpartum transitions, birth trauma, grief and loss, relationship changes, identity shifts, and the emotional realities of early parenthood. I also work with clients healing from difficult childhood experiences, family-of-origin wounds, and intergenerational patterns that can emerge during the transition to parenthood.

​

My approach to therapy is relational, collaborative, and tailored to the unique needs of each person and family. I integrate Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), trauma-informed care, and mindfulness-based approaches to help clients better understand themselves, navigate emotions with greater confidence, and create more connected relationships. I am also certified in Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), a powerful approach that I have found especially effective in helping clients process trauma, difficult memories, and distressing experiences with meaningful and lasting results.

​

I believe therapy offers something uniquely valuable, a space to slow down, be fully seen, and make sense of the experiences that shape us. Whether you are moving through grief, uncertainty, transition, or the quiet work of redefining yourself, you do not have to do it alone. It is a privilege to walk alongside individuals and couples as they heal, grow, and move toward a life that feels more connected, grounded, and authentic.
