About My Clients
My clients, who often come to me lonely, misunderstood, stuck, or feeling not themselves, often feel heard, validated, and connected after working with me. I specialize in maternal mental health, infertility, pregnancy loss, and perinatal mood disorders including postpartum depression and anxiety. I also work with new parents in adjusting to parenthood. I am here to guide and support you towards reestablishing hope and achieving optimal wellness.
My Background and Approach
I utilize a combination of an insight-oriented, existential approach with evidenced based practice. I incorporate components of DBT, ACT, and CBT depending on the individual client and their reasons for seeking treatment. Therapy should not be a cookie-cutter experience, and thus when outlining treatment I take into consideration the entirety of my client's biological, psychological, and social/relational history in understanding their current experiences. I utilize a direct, yet compassionate and warm approach, providing a balance of support and challenge, that allows for flexibility, humor, and connection in the therapeutic process.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe that all people are capable of change and sometimes need the supportive, non-judgmental experience counseling provides to assist in sorting through life's problems. I am anti-racist, LGBTQIA+ affirming, and body positive. I strive to approach all of my clients with unconditional positive regard and relentless compassion, while gently, yet directly, challenging them to take the steps towards meaningful change.
